!!This game contains examples of the following tropes:

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Colonel Fancy (yes, really) considers your recklessness to be an asset, as his own men don't take as many risks.
* CareerKiller: Your character, and pretty much the whole basis of this game's ExcusePlot.
* ChewingTheScenery: The guy playing Fancy must've been picking the scenery out of his teeth for ''weeks''...
* CoolButImpractical: You know, instead of that giant viewfinder... periscope... thing, they could've just put the information on one of the many monitors!
* DefrostingIceQueen: You and Helga.
* DramaticPause: Colonel Fancy... well, he... he has so many of these [[NoEnding ...]]
* FakeNationality: We're not quite sure where Helga's '''supposed''' to be from, but odds are the actress who plays her isn't actually from there.
* ItsUpToYou: ... even though they could quite easily order a full squadron to take care of this at pretty much any time.
* JustifiedExtraLives: They're clones.
* RedShirt: See all those other "trash men" with you at the start of the game? Take a guess as to what happens to them.
* ReformulatedGame: The "Extreme" port has different level design and subtle tweaks to the basic gameplay.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The game was originally titled "Orion Off-Road" and was meant to be more of a straight racer.
