Added DiffLines:

* ClippedWingAngel: The final boss, [[spoiler:Little Mac.]] Initially, his attacks require almost perfect timing to avoid, and take out huge chunks of your life-bar when they hit you, effectively killing you in only three to five hits, whereas [[spoiler:Little Mac]] takes several hits, even though he's so short, he only comes up to Abobo's stomach. Special mention goes to his uppercut, which takes frame-perfect timing to dodge and hits you for almost half of your life bar. [[spoiler:After being knocked down twice, he grabs a bunch of powerups from various other NES games, including a Super Mushroom that turns him into a hulking brute called "Big Mac."]] However, he actually becomes easier; his attacks, while much more intimidating, actually do ''less'' damage than his original form does.
** The Old Man's third form, Old Giant, is easier than his other two forms. He's much easier to hit (though he has lots of health), and his attacks are telegraphed well in advance and very predictable.


Added DiffLines:

** ClippedWingAngel: [[spoiler:Big Mac]] is actually easier to defeat than [[spoiler:his little form]] because his attacks actually do ''less'' damage and don't require insanely good timing to avoid, though they do have rather awkward timing and can kill you from sheer anticipation.

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard are being merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with masculinity in some way. Please read the trope description before readding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassMustache: Abobo, of course. There's even a debate as to whether or not he has one. But it appears that he does, if you look carefully at his in-game sprite.

** You could also consider the ''VideoGame/{{Jaws}}'' battle to be one of those. With the menacing music that starts playing when you fight it, the shark is psyched as the final boss of the level... [[spoiler:but turns out to be just another miniboss when after three hits it's eaten by a shark ten times its size with FrickinLaserBeams attached to its head - the real boss.]]

''Abobo's Big Adventure'' is a free to play UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash-based [[WebGames browser game]] made by "Team Bobo" and released to the public on January 11, 2012 after an [[DevelopmentHell extremely long development cycle]]. The game's development started in 2002 as a pet project of Roger Barr a.k.a. [=-RoG-=] of ''I-Mockery'' fame, who wanted to create the ultimate tribute to [[UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem NES games]]. The early drafts of this project were scrapped because of other commitments, and [=-RoG-=] started anew in 2006 with a new group of developers, who strived to preserve as much as possible the look and feel of NES titles.
