* DropTheHammer: Kay's third weapon. The strongest weapon in the game and great at destroying armour, but it's slow and takes some getting used to. You can't just swing it around willy nilly.

trope is renamed Prefers Going Barefoot. Dewicking old name


* DoesNotLikeShoes: Kay is barefoot throughout the whole game. Given that he uses Kung-Fu, and those who fight using Kung-Fu keep their feet bare, it makes sense for Kay to fight in bare feet.

* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: The final boss has four arms, one of which is huge and muscly and hangs at his side, two others are quite big, and the final arm is scrawny and malformed. He also has a second head sticking out of his first head, with the second head's face stretching onto the first head.]] [[SurpriseCreepy Why yes, this is a kid's game.]]

* AllAnimalsAreDogs: A rare anthro case in the Paladin Dragon. Some of his idle animations if he's not talking during a scene are similar to a dog scratching itself.

None

Added DiffLines:

* ArmorIsUseless: While Kay can get the Jade Armor to increase his life points by 5, most strong enough attacks can go through the armor, and Kay can increase his own life through Life Containers whereas the Jade Armor is a steady 5 point increase. On Nightmare mode, the Jade Armor is near worthless. Which means Kay's traditional outfit that most of the cat village wears is eventually more effective than any armor.

* FrothyMugsOfWater: Averted, the Master of the dojo is ''clearly'' drinking. His preferred drink of choice is the fictional "nettlemead", though mead itself is an actual drink; mead is made like beer but from plants other than hops.

Added DiffLines:

* DoomedHometown: A downplayed variant: the cat village has been okay up to the start of the game but the mayor quickly sells them out to the invading gorillas and rats in the first chapter (of 21). It's not destroyed, but Kay has ''had it'' with the occupation, and sets out on the recommendation of his family and the Master to find the resistance factions that may do something against them.


Added DiffLines:

* ThereAreNoCoincidences: The gorillas take all weapons from the cat village except for the Cat Champion sword. Kay steals it when the mayor says the dojo is about to be taken down due to suspicion of insurrection, and it becomes his main weapon. Guess who the next Cat Champion of prophecy is? (You get three guesses and the first two don't count.)

Added DiffLines:

* DrunkenMaster: The Master at Kay's dojo plays with the usual type. He's definitely drinking and sometimes uses it as an excuse to stop training, or even to continue by having Kay retrieve his drink, and the rest of the village thinks he's a kook who believes in a long-outdated way of thinking. However, he does teach everything Kay needs for his adventure, and displays some mystic knowledge. The "playing with" part is that drinking does ''not'' help him, he just is frequently drunk.

Added DiffLines:

* HarderThanHard: The difficulty levels when starting are Easy, Normal, Hard, and Nightmare.
* HintSystem: Two.
** General: the shopkeeper sells a few "Tip of the Day" items per chapter. They're mostly gameplay related, but often prescient and related to what you might see in the level.
** Level-specific: a question mark icon on the map indicates someone Kay can go to for tips on how to find specific hidden items, most notably Cat Statues and the treasures they lead to.


Added DiffLines:

* MotionComic: Plot cutscenes are the secondary version, with stylized artwork.
