* RisingUpTheFoodChainGame: As per a Katamari Damacy clone, you need to grow to absorb larger objects. You bounce off larger moving objects until you're large enough to absorb them.

''The Wonderful End of the World'' is a game released by indie developer Dejobaan games in 2008. As the title suggests, the world is about to end (about to be [[PlanetEater eaten]], to be specific), and it's up to you and your sticky marionette-thing to save as much stuff as you can to colonise a new one. Essentially a ''VideoGame/KatamariDamacy'' [[FollowTheLeader clone]] (albeit it a rather well-made one), it still has enough of its own charm and tongue-in-cheek humour to be a distinct experience, and is probably the closest PC gamers will get to a Katamari game[[note]]at least before Katamari Rerolled.[[/note]] . The most obvious difference is that instead of rolling a ball of clutter, you control a stick man made of clutter. It can be bought from [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/15500/?snr=1_600_610__612 Steam]] or [[http://dejobaan.com/wonderful/ the developer's website]].

!!This VideoGame contains examples of:

* ExcusePlot: Only time it's really brought up is in the theme song and in the final, apocalyptic level.
* ExpositoryThemeTune: The main menu background music gives just about all the plot the game has.
* FollowTheLeader: It's a pretty blatant copy of ''KatamariDamacy''.
** And they even made it ''just as ridiculous'' in its own way.
* LevelAte: The level Sugar Candy is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin made out of candy]]
* PaperPeople: The level Rice Paper Parade has everything as paper cut-outs in a 3D world.
* PlanetEater: What's going to cause the titular end of the world. Never seen in-game, but apparently has the head of a fish.
* SavingTheWorld: Although more in the sense of saving a document.
* ShoutOut: Many, many, many. To start with, the Arcadia level has you collecting things from VideoGame/{{Pong}}, VideoGame/PacMan, a [[{{Tron}} light-cycle]], ''VideoGame/{{Centipede}}'', and VideoGame/{{Tetris}}, the Bibliodiscotheque level (set in a library) has a [[Literature/{{Discworld}} giant orang-outang and a flying turtle]], and the Sky Mall level has a white toy pick-up truck [[OJSimpson being chased by toy police cars]].
* VisualPun: Also numerous. For example, a computer with an actual mouse (the computer mice are scurrying around like actual mice).
