* {{Antepiece}}: The World 1 boss, Lucky Jack, has an attack in which he sucks up coins (which, since the game is in reverse, will actually shoot out towards you). The first time he fires, the coins will pass by safely with no danger of them hitting you, so you can see the pattern and learn how to avoid it next time.



* BackToFront: The game starts with Chili Pepper Knight defeating the final boss and saving Princess Tomato, and then rewinds all the way back to the very first level.



* {{Foreshadowing}}: If you look closely during the opening cutscene, as Chili Pepper Knight carries Princess Tomato away, you can see that [[spoiler:she's glaring and kicking her legs, strongly hinting that you're actually kidnapping her, not rescuing her.]]



* NowDoItAgainBackwards: The premise of the game.

* TheEndingChangesEverything: Or rather, the beginning changes everything. [[spoiler:You're not rescuing Princess Tomato from Mr. Death Bunny; you're ''kidnapping her for ransom''. Mr Death Bunny was merely her pet.]]

Spoiler Alert is a [[PlatformGame platforming]] game where you have to uncomplete the game. You start out beating the last boss, get the princess, the [[CreditsRoll credits begin]]... and then [[NowDoItAgainBackwards the game reverses]], and you have to [[RuleOfThree unbeat the bosses, unkill the enemies, and uncollect the coins]] to find out how it started. And if you, say, kill something new on the way? You create a [[TemporalParadox time paradox]], and get thrown back to the beginning of the level. [[DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist The levels are short though.]]
