* EstablishingSeriesMoment: The original ''IWBTG'' sets the tone with spiked walls from unexpected directions and fruits that are not only deadly, but fall ''[[SelectiveGravity up]]''. That's pretty merciful by ''Gaiden''[='=]s standards; this game will try to kill you ''on the world map'', before you've even entered the first proper level.

* PressStartToGameOver: While the original ''IWBTG'' lets you get killed in a matter of seconds, ''Gaiden'' takes it to new heights by introducing an overworld map...that tries to kill you...before you even reach the first stage! Good thing this game offers unlimited lives like its predecessor!
