4''Don't Shit Your Pants'' is a [[VulgarHumor humorous]] [[InteractiveFiction text adventure]] game by Cellar Door Games that jokingly brands itself as a survival horror game. It can be found on Website/{{Newgrounds}} [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/540127 here.]]
5
6As the name suggests, you play as a man who [[PottyEmergency desperately needs to defecate]] [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin and must guide him to the bathroom using]] [[InteractiveFiction text commands]]. There are [[MultipleEndings ten different endings to unlock]], and many of them require thinking outside the box. The game is short, and only takes a few minutes to complete, but getting all of the endings without cheating requires some thinking. Getting all of the endings will earn you the title of Shit King.

11!! This game provides examples of:
12
13* AchievementMockery: There's an achievement for typing "shit" before the game even starts.
14* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Your character is magenta skinned.
15* AndYourRewardIsClothes: The protagonist gets a crown once you have unlocked all the awards.
16* BarbieDollAnatomy: The protagonist isn't drawn with a penis when he has his pants off, although that's [[FanDisservice probably for the better.]]
17* ClusterFBomb: The word "shit" is used quite liberally...
18* DoorDumb: "You try PUSHING the door open but it wont budge." You PULL it open. [[LampshadeHanging "Oh, Right."]]
19* EarnYourBadEnding: It takes a bit of work, certainly the most in the game, to figure out how to get two achievements. First you have to find the stomach pills, then you have to learn how to delay the impending PottyEmergency to give the pills time to work. And then they end up not working anyways.
20* ExactWords:
21** Removing your pants before taking a shit (or killing yourself) results in you taking a dump on the floor. This counts as a win, since ''technically'' you didn't shit your pants.
22** Sitting on the toilet and shitting will result in a game over. You didn't specify that you took your pants off, first.
23* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The main goal is to make it to the restroom without shitting your pants, as the name would suggest.
24* FauxHorrific: This game is subtitled as survival horror.
25* GameBreakingBug:
26** Entering "fart lightly" three times, or doing the "Stomach pills" achievement, will cause the player character to shit his pants ''even if his pants are already off''.
27** Entering "don't shit" while on the toilet will cause the player to still shit in their pants/on the floor instead.
28* GoldenEnding: Obviously, the best ending is the one where you shit in the toilet. Just be sure to take off your pants first.
29* GrossOutShow: This game sure likes to make you crap yourself...
30* HaveANiceDeath: Well, have a nice PottyFailure. Each ending has a picture and text description of your failure (or success in the GoldenEnding).
31* InteractiveFiction: A rare modern example. Although there are graphics, the game is controlled entirely through text commands.
32* LoopholeAbuse: The player will get a victory chime for taking off their pants and shitting on the floor. Hey, ''technically'' you didn't shit your pants.
33* MonikerAsEnticement: Parodied. Getting all possible endings will earn the character the title of "Shit King", earning him a crown from the fast food place to prove it.
34* MultipleEndings: Ten of them!
35* NoDeadBodyPoops: In an interesting nod to realism, killing yourself will lead to a game over as you lose control of your bowels, thus (wait for it) shitting your pants. Unless you take off your pants first, in which case you... succeed? We guess?
36* NonstandardGameOver:
37** Entering "Fart" will cause the player to shit his pants by farting too hard.
38** Entering "Hit" will cause the player to exert himself and shit his pants.
39* PottyEmergency: The main plot of the game is of the protagonist desperately having to take a dump.
40* PottyFailure: All of the endings except for one lead to you failing to defecate in the toilet.
41* PressStartToGameOver: You normally type in "play" to start the game. But instead, you can type "shit" to immediately soil yourself. There's an achievement for that.
42* PressXToDie:
43** Typing in "die" (Or "suicide" or "seppuku" or...) will result in you dying, ending the game. If you remove your pants and ''then'' die, [[PyrrhicVictory it still counts as a technical win]].
44** Commanding the man to "shit" will automatically end the game.
45* PyrrhicVictory: Committing suicide with your pants off results in a technical victory (since [[LoopholeAbuse you shit on the floor as you die]]), but even the game [[LampshadeHanging questions if it should count.]]
46* ReversePsychology: Entering "don't shit" will make the player shit anyway.
47* TakeThat: The game instructs you to type "play" to begin the game. If you type exactly that, quotations included, the game calls you an idiot.
48* TakeYourTime: Averted, as there is a time limit - despite the fact that most text adventures are slow paced and don't have time limits.
49* TimedMission: In seconds. Initially, you have 40 seconds, so you'd better hurry to the bathroom!
50* TitleDrop: Happens from time to time. Invoking this yourself will cause the message "[[DeconstructedTrope Too bad. You shit your pants anyway.]]"
51* ToiletHumor: Well, what did you expect? The whole game revolves around the act of shitting.
52* UnexpectedlyRealisticGameplay:
53** Just like in real life, it turns out that deciding to take a shit with your pants still on or taking a shit outside of the bathroom isn't such a good idea. The game is very precise, and often players get a bad ending on their first playthrough.
54** If you fart, you end up [[GameOver taking a shit]]. If you fart a little, you get [[TimedMission more time, instead]].
55** If you kill yourself, you end up taking a shit because you lose your bowel control.
56** However, if you sit on the toilet, with your pants off, and let the timer run out, you still lose.
57* UndignifiedDeath: Typing in "die", "suicide" or "kill self" will result in you dying... and thanks to loss of bowel control as you die, you shit your pants or on the floor, if you took them off first.
58* VomitIndiscretionShot: It's a ''shit'' indiscretion shot.
59* VulgarHumor: Who knew there were so many ways to use the restroom incorrectly?
