History VideoGame / PsychoWaluigi

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: After being defeated by Waluigi, [[spoiler:Psycho Iris]]'s final fate is left unknown. On the MFGG forum, [[WordOfGod Thunder Dragon]] provided the explanation that [[spoiler:he is now [[SealedEvilInACan trapped inside Waluigi's head]] and remains unseen, outside of the occasional freak signal]]. But then, he went on to state that he [[TeasingCreator could be wrong or lying]].

'''Psycho Waluigi''' is a fangame made by Thunder Dragon of MFGG fame. Set in the [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario Universe]], it stars Wario's underappreciated partner, Waluigi.

* ADayInTheLimelight: And what a day it is for Waluigi!

* [[spoiler:CrossPlayer: Alluded to by Psycho Iris, in the stage description for [[AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent Ninjette's Challenge]]...while seemingly '''[[LeaningOnTheFourthWall talking to the player]]''' about their own desire to be a cute ninja girl.]]

* [[spoiler:DiscOneFinalBoss: General Hazel, specifically the last fight with her in space. Afterwards, Waluigi clashes with Psycho Iris [[EvilVersusOblivion to stop him from destroying the world.]]]]
* [[spoiler:DiscOneFinalDungeon: Blind Eye Kingdom. You didn't think Psycho Iris would really force you to fight him after he's unsealed, did you?]]

* EasterEgg: Try letting your time run out on a level and then waiting a moment on the "Time Up" screen and you'll hear a very familiar song. [[spoiler:It's Totaka's Song.]]
* [[spoiler:EleventhHourSuperpower: The titular Psycho Waluigi form.]]

* [[spoiler:NiceJobBreakingItHero: Congratulations, general! You've knocked Waluigi unconscious and stopped his rampage... but that allowed Psycho Iris to possess his body. Whoops.]]

* RecurringRiff: The [[VideoGame/MarioKart Waluigi Pinball]] theme gets remixed a few times throughout the game.

* HannibalLecture: [[spoiler:Psycho Iris gives one to Waluigi once his [[OmnicidalManiac own plans for Unconcia]] come to light.]]

* SlouchOfVillainy: The goal of every level is to reach the kings and take over their thrones.

* AffablyEvil: Psycho Iris. He's pretty friendly and jokey with Waluigi, [[spoiler:but that doesn't stop him from locking him inside his own head when he doesn't want to destroy the world -- and even then, he offers to let Waluigi live in eternal dreams of his choosing.]]
** To be fair, he does that [[spoiler:after Waluigi has been knocked out. Beforehand, he was fine with putting his plans for destruction on hold and let Waluigi rule Unconcia for the time being. For Iris it's a win-win: as long as Waluigi has fun, he gets some fun too; and when Waluigi will eventually fall into boredom, he'll agree with the "destroy the world" thing]].
* AllJustADream: Played with. Unconcia is a place where people go when they're knocked unconcious, but it seems to be an actual, seperate world as well, similar to [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2 Subcon]]. [[spoiler: Flashbacks in the final World 0 stage show that Waluigi isn't the first visitor Psycho Iris has tempted with promises of conquest.]]
* AndIMustScream: Subverted when [[spoiler:Iris possesses Waluigi and traps him inside his own mind -- Iris, being genuinely AffablyEvil, gives Waluigi the option of living forever within a dream world of his choosing.]]

* BadLiar: Psycho Iris constantly assures Waluigi that he has no plans to betray him. The closer Waluigi gets to releasing him, the more frantic the eyeball's claims become. Before the final level, he tries to tempt him by making ridiculous promises, saying that he'll give him the power to fly, shoot lasers from his eyes, and [[SuperNotDrowningSkills breathe, eat, and talk underwater]] [[LampshadeHanging ("You've been doing that, right?")]] before finally giving up and simply begging to be freed. [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope It turns out that he was telling the truth the whole time]]. [[DoubleSubversion Mostly.]]]]

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler:World 0 has two of these, though one of them is just a PaletteSwap of the World 1 boss with a unique twist- you’re controlling a {{Mook|s}}.]]

* DeathFromAbove: [[spoiler:By the end of World 5, the Hazelnauts have apparently decided to forego trying to defeat Waluigi through normal means in favor of simply bombing the crap out of him]].

* [[spoiler:DiscOneFinalBoss: General Hazel, specifically the last fight with her in space. Afterwards Waluigi clashes with Psycho Iris [[EvilVersusOblivion to stop him from destroying the world.]]]]

* [[spoiler:EleventhHourSuperpower: The titular Psycho Waluigi form]].

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Waluigi is perfectly fine with the idea of conquering Unconcia; however, [[spoiler:he doesn't take too kindly to the idea of destroying it all.]]

* {{Expy}}: Many enemies in this game are expies of various enemies of the Mario series. The only two enemies that are actually from the Mario series are Bob-ombs and Piranha Plants.

* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:Once freed, Psycho Iris wants to destroy the conquered Unconcia. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Waluigi doesn't approve of this plan very much]].]]

* SugarBowl: Amusingly, [[spoiler:the penultimate level, Blind Eye Kingdom, is one of these, despite being being set up as a dark and spooky place and being smack in the center of the {{Mordor}}-like World 6. Made even better by [[CardCarryingVillain Psycho Iris']] apprehension about the stage, his horror story about his first defeat there, and his terrified ScrewThisImOuttaHere once you finally reach it.]]

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Played with. Psycho Iris constantly tries to put Waluigi's mind at ease that he has no plans to betray him when he is free. [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope He's telling the truth]]. He wants to join forces with Waluigi to make the most of both their power.]] Then [[spoiler:[[DoubleSubversion he eventually ends up]] [[OmnicidalManiac having a different plan for the conquered Unconcia]] than Waluigi does. And winds up locking Waluigi up in his mind when he is knocked unconscious.]]

** RemilitarizedZone: Bomb Shell Kingdom (along with most boss levels.)

[[caption-width-right:321:Taking over the world has never been crazier. Starring [[EnsembleDarkhorse Waluigi]] and [[ObviouslyEvil Psycho Iris]]!]]

* BadLiar: Psycho Iris constantly assures Waluigi that he has no plans to betray him. The closer Waluigi gets to releasing him, the more frantic the eyeball's claims become.

[[spoiler:[[AvertedTrope It turns out that he was telling the truth the whole time]]. Mostly.]]
* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: [[spoiler:The final boss fight takes place here. After Psycho Iris takes over Waluigi's unconscious body and seals the purple plumber in his own mind, Waluigi uses his imagination to create his own psychic powers and exorcise the iris from his body.]]

* BonusBoss: [[spoiler:World 0 has two of these, though one of them is just a PaletteSwap of the World 1 boss with a unique twist]].

* BrickJoke; At the very end of the Falling Sky Kingdom, it finally hits the ground.

* [[spoiler:DiscOneFinalBoss: General Hazel, specifically the last fight with her in space. Afterwards Waluigi clashes with Psycho Iris [[EvilVsOblivion to stop him from destroying the world.]]]]

* EvilVsOblivion: Why Waluigi ends up fighting [[spoiler:Psycho Iris]]; whereas Waluigi wants to rule the world, [[spoiler:Iris]] tries to destroy it.

* TheGoomba: Goomlet

* HannibalLecture: [[spoiler:Psycho Iris gives one to Waluigi once his own plans for Unconcia come to light.]]

* JumpScare: The Face (an MFGG InJoke) makes a cameo appearance in Static Void Kingdom.

* NobodyCanDie: At least, not in Unconica.
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:Once freed, Psycho Iris wants to destroy the conquered Unconcia. Waluigi doesn't approve of this plan very much.]]

* PragmaticVillainy: Waluigi eventually thwarts [[spoiler:Psycho Iris]]'s plans of [[spoiler:destroying Unconcia]], because he'd rather rule it himself.

* SugarBowl: Amusingly, [[spoiler:the penultimate level, Blind Eye Kingdom, is one of these, despite being being set up as a dark and spooky place and being smack in the center of the Mordor like World 6. Made even better by [[CardCarryingVillain Psycho Iris']] apprehension about the stage, his horror story about his first defeat there, and his terrified ScrewThisImOuttaHere once you finally reach it.]]

And winds up locking Waluigi up in his mind when he is knocked unconscious.]]
** After buying the Gold Crown from the shop, it's replaced with a $10,000 "Commemorative Coin" that the owner insists is not a scam. [[spoiler:[[AvertedTrope It really isn't.]] The coin shows up on the screen after completing a level. You can get several more as well, each with a unique design.]]
* TakeOverTheWorld

* VerbalTic: Iris does this whenever he's talking at length, yadda yadda etc etc...

* DarkerAndEdgier: By [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] standards, that is. Conquering kingdoms can be somewhat jarring to players that are used to saving them.

Nah, he's gonna go take out the [[BigGood Hazelnaut Army]] and [[TakeOverTheWorld conquer Unconcia for himself]].

* VictoryIsBoring: [[spoiler:Discussed. Once Psycho Iris reveals his [[OmnicidalManiac true intentions]], he explains to Waluigi that he'd rather have Unconcia destroyed than have to deal with all that comes with ruling it (bureaucracy and so forth). He does initially relent, hoping that Waluigi will eventually snap from boredom. Then Hazel attacks them and Waluigi gets knocked out, allowing Psycho Iris to take over his body.]]

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Subverted. After Waluigi frees Psycho Iris, the latter says he's going to destroy the former. Psycho Iris then admits he's just telling Waluigi what he expected to hear.

* AccidentalHero: Waluigi spends most of the game conquering kingdoms and kicking army ass, [[spoiler:but then Psycho Iris reveals he'd rather destroy Unconcia than get bored ruling it, and that's where Waluigi draws the line!]]

The gameplay is like a cross between ''Videogame/WarioLand'' and ''Videogame/Psychonauts'', with classic platforming action. Using Psycho Iris, Waluigi can use Psychokinesis to weaponize the environment and his enemies. For example, by lifting up a fireball-spitting Piranha Plant you can force it to shoot out fireballs for you.

* PropRecycling: Several backgrounds and tilesets are directly lifted from other [[SuperMarioBros Marioverse]] games. Nevertheless, they're [[Administrivia/TropesAreFlexible edited well enough so that they don't visually clash too much]].

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Psycho Iris leaves you for the penultimate level, due to bad memories of the time he tried to conquer that kingdom alone. This means you'll have to rely on traditional [[SuperMarioBros Mario-styled platforming]] rather than the Psychic Powers you've grown accustomed to.
