''The Blueballs Incident'' is a VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin mod created by [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_k3YwMTo45Jo_qQbygBreA Malicious Bunny]] and [[https://twitter.com/_ezhaltd EZHALT]]. The mod takes heavy influences from the WebOriginal/{{Trollge}} memes/incidents, a revival of the Trollface meme to turn it into a horrifying eldritch being.

Your opponent this time is an unnamed "Troll individual", who seems to have gone into a depression due to doing...[[NoodleIncident something to someone.]] Now he just wants to be left alone, but Boyfriend is as rap-happy as always, and quickly causes things to escalate beyond the point of insanity. [[WalkingSpoiler Describing any further would reach spoiler territory,]] however, so it's best played before you continue any further.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The original [[Webcomic/RageComics Trollface]] is one of the internet's most famous [[MemeticMutation memes]], and thus has nothing in terms of plot or meaning. This mod, on the other hand, features a depressed and unsettling version of the character that feels remorse over his ColdBloodedTorture of Derp, goes insane trying to get Boyfriend to leave him alone, and is actually a downright HumanoidAbomination that escaped from an Wiki/SCPFoundation-esque area made to contain anomalous "Troll incidents". Even the songs are considerably slower and more somber, with the exception of “Incident”, which ups the pace a little, but is still much more reserved than what most players are familiar with. And we haven't even begun talking about Stairway!

* EvilSoundsDeep: The voices of both of the Trollges, both in cutscenes and in gameplay, is made through a pitched-down text-to-speech program that creates a sort of grumbling voice deeper than the Grand Canyon.

* {{Foil}}: The mod itself can be seen as one to another Trollface mod, ''VideoGame/VSTrollface''. Both are horror-based Friday Night Funkin' mods where you fight against a Trollface that take inspiration from the Trollge revival, but there are also a number of differences between the two:
** ''TBI'' begins right off the bat with a somber atmosphere and unnerving antagonist while ''VS Trollface'' starts off sillier before revealing its horror at the end.
*** In terms of the horror presentation itself, ''TBI'' goes for a slow-paced, chilling experience while ''VS Trollface'' is more visceral and in-your-face.
** ''TBI'' uses entirely original artwork with a more professional look to it while ''VS Trollface'' uses StylisticSuck and stock Trollface expressions to stay more faithful to the original Webcomic/RageComics.
** Boyfriend is the one that starts the confrontation in ''TBI'', while in ''VS Trollface'', Trollface himself challenges an unsuspecting Boyfriend.



* IKnowYouAreInThereSomewhereFight: [[spoiler: "My True Love" is one for Trollege Girlfriend against Boyfriend. While it [[HopelessBossFight fails]] the first time, it definitely does the second time, which causes Legion to undergo a VillainousBreakdown before getting KilledOffForReal.]]

* MoodWhiplash: Happens a lot in "Troll Physics #3333333333", which constantly switches between being a silly instructional video and Stairway's unsettling imagery.



* NonStandardGameOver: Dying at any point results in Smiler revealing the mod's connection to [=MaliciousBunny's=] Trollge videos as he sadly laments [[ColdBloodedTorture what he did to Derp]] in "How to Trollge your Best Friend", followed by the TP cells demanding he continue his trolling.

* NonStandardGameOver: MythologyGag:
** While most of the Trollges in the mod are original creations, Stairway is based on the one that started them all, the "Stairway to Heaven" incident.
** "Troll Physics #3333333333" is based on "Troll Physics", a series of Webcomic/RageComics where Trollface uses InsaneTrollLogic to create impossible contraptions (and the format later used by most WebOriginal/{{Trollge}} memes), right down to the RunningGag of using magnets to speed up tasks.

** Dying in "Pteromerhanophobia" shows the text "COVER YOURSELF IN OIL", followed by footage of someone flying through a rainy city in first-person.
** Dying in "Paedophobia" simply shows heavily red-tinted footage of someone walking through a forest.
** Dying in "Technophobia" results in Boyfriend being subjected to the same fate as Derp, sitting in front of a TV with a Trollge-like grin on

** Dying in "Glossophobia" has [[FriendlyEnemy Exhalted give Boyfriend a few motivational words, telling him not to be reckless before asking to go again.]]

Added DiffLines:

* ShoutOut: There are 4 separate entries under File #23 in the TCF files unlocked after beating the story. One of these has the information for Smiler and Legion, while the other three contain files for the antagonists of VideoGame/VSTrollface, VideoGame/TheFridayNightIncident, and Friday Night Trolling (the latter of which has yet to be released). It has also been confirmed previously that these mods were canonically connected, making these shout-outs lore-relevant.
