* SuperDrowningSkills: Averted -- Rollie can swim just fine, and he can even [[JumpPhysics jump across the surface of the water]]. Though it's dangerous to do so in parts of level 3, since the bug-eating fish are lurking below the surface. However, he ''will'' drown and die if he ends up in honey, slime or lava.

* CollisionDamage: Some enemies — spiders, bee grubs, slugs, caterpillars, etc — can damage you just by touching you. Possibly justified since some of them are poisonous bugs.

* CreepyCockroach: Levels 8 and 9 feature anthropomorphic cockroaches that wear gas masks and give off a green toxic gas just from walking around (fortunately, it's very flammable, which can kill off any roaches caught in the gas when it catches on fire).



* DamselInDistress: The ladybugs.

to:

* DamselInDistress: The ladybugs.ladybugs, who are trapped inside cages of webbing and must be freed to increase the player's score.



* FinalBoss: King Thorax.
* GiantFootOfStomping: In level 4.

to:

* FinalBoss: King Thorax.
Thorax, the ant king.
* GiantFootOfStomping: In Featured in level 4.4, the forest path, where people are walking around barefoot and will step on Rollie without noticing.



* HardLevelsEasyBosses: The final level — the boss fight with Thorax — is laughably easy compared to the hell you go through to get there.

* LavaPit: Which are found in...
* LethalLavaLand: The anthill.

to:

* KillItWithWater: Downplayed with King Thorax. Kicking a pipe and spraying him with water ''weakens'' him, putting out his fire and leaving him vulnerable to Rollie's physical attacks, but the effect doesn't last forever.
* LavaPit: Which are found in...
The anthill is full of them.
* LethalLavaLand: The anthill.anthill, which is full of lava pits that can only be avoided by swinging over them or going very tightly against the wall.



* MookBouncer: The fireflies, except they don't teleport you — they pick you up and carry you off to [[EverythingTryingToKillYou somewhere you absolutely]] [[LavaPit do not want to be.]]

to:

* StockBeehive: The bee hive featured in level 5 has the standard "stacked rings with a hole in one side" (plus a porch under said hole) appearance, and serves as the "boss" of the level (once it's blasted enough, it catches on fire, ending the level).

Added DiffLines:

* VineSwing: Level 9 features a variant in the ''root'' swing, where white roots hang from the ceiling and Rollie must use them to swing across lava pits.

* DifficultySpike: Happens at Level 4. The length of the level is far longer than anything before that, the stomping feet do major damage if they hit you, and you have to master riding a dragonfly that controls awkwardly to say the least - if you fly too high above the level you get eaten by a bat and die instantly.
