* ExecutiveMeddling: An amusingly small amount. When Skittles manufacturer Mars received the script, they only asked to change a joke, [[GoshDangItToHeck turn "damn" into "darn"]] and remove all snakes in the game. Snake-''like'' creatures were allowed, as long as they were not actual snakes. The latter stipulation was never explained other than that the company apparently just didn't like snakes.
* FollowTheLeader: [[http://web.archive.org/web/20040814224454/http://www.cgonline.com/previews/skittlesds-01-p1.html The game started because]] the M&M's video games were selling well. The producer asked to not get involved in the project, but [[INeedAFreakingDrink after getting drunk]] thought she could do so.
* WriterRevolt: As seen in FollowTheLeader, the producer only accepted to work "under the soothing influence of alcohol". So she wrote a self-mocking game that put the ProductPlacement behind gameplay and humor. Amusingly, Mars didn't complain about the script! (much.)
