History VideoGame / SpeedyEggbert

* AWinnerIsYou: At the very end of the game, having collected every treasure chest and reached the final exit, [[spoiler:you get a picture of Eggbert cheering beside a treasure chest.]] In other words, the same result as simply [[spoiler:completing any custom level!]]
** Even worse, the sequel's victory image is visible [[spoiler:''on the game's CD case!'']]

* GoodBadBugs: The Speedy Blupi II level editor has some bugs that can be exploited in order to improve the custom level's aesthetic, make it more challenging, or both.

* WingedSoulFliesOffAtDeath: In the sequel.

* LevelGoal: A big spinning red arrow, which is bizarrely easy to miss in later levels.
* LockAndKeyPuzzle: With the introduction of colored keys a doors in Speedy Blupi II, some levels introduced in the sequel are this.

* WhatTheHellPlayer: A very gentle one. Walk Blupi right up to within a few pixels of a mine and release the controls, and he'll shiver in fear, glare at the player, and backpedal a step or two (unless the player stands between two mines - in that case he will only shiver in fear without moving).

** Special mention has to go to the monkey bar animation. Keep Blupi hanging for a while, and he'll suddenly swing round to face you and start scratching his armpits while the game audio switches to ape noises, Disney/{{Tarzan}} style.

And yes, despite the game titles, [[SpellMyNameWithAnS his name remains Blupi throughout]]. Not to be confused with the first game of the ''VideoGame/TokiTori'' series, even if they're both puzzle platformers about yellow egg-shaped guys.

* Unwinnable: Some levels can be rendered unwinnable, but most times it won't happen unless the player is really clumsy or doing it on purpose.

'''Speedy Eggbert''', originally titled '''Speedy Blupi''', is a 1998 [=PC=] game detailing the bizarre adventures of a 3D yellow egg creature named Blupi in a 2D land littered with InexplicableTreasureChests. Levels varied between enemy-dodging exploration and deductive platforming, primarily in the form of {{Block Puzzle}}s. A key feature of the game was its dual jump buttons, and the clever use of the low and high jumps these offered.

Like most of the ''Blupi'' games, both ''Speedy Blupi'' and its sequel have become open-source in [[http://www.blupi.org/ the official website]].

* ClassicCheatCode: You can type certain codes in-game to achieve certain effects, much like ''VideoGame/PlanetBlupi''. For example, typing "funskate" will give Blupi a skateboard. As a useless ([[SelfImposedChallenge or maybe a form of "life count restriction" challenge]] for challenge-seekers out there) example, typing "killegg" will deduct a life.

Initially an indie game by [=EPSITEC=] and sequel to strategy game ''Planet Blupi'', it was re-released by [=eGames=], who added the 'Eggbert' title ([[http://games.multimedia.cx/speedy-eggbert/ and their own spyware]]). The game was never a major hit, but garnered a small following due to the responsive controls, interesting level design and fully-featured LevelEditor. ''Speedy Eggbert 2'' (or ''Speedy Blupi [=II=]'') was later released, adding a few minor additions to the feature set and a pile of new levels.

* MarathonLevel: Many of them. And sometimes you have to walk all the way back to the beginning of a level to finish it.

** One problem with this quirk is that Blupi is coded to walk back but not necessarily away from the mines. This means you could jump over or between mines (their hitboxes don't cover their whole tile) and get blown up if you don't move or jump again immediately.

* TwoAndAHalfD: Strictly speaking, anyway. The level terrain and gameplay is [=2D=], while all objects, enemies and Blupi himself are rendered in the best [=3D=] graphics 1998 could buy. Ish.

* BottomlessMagazines: For the enemies. Averted hard for you, despite using the same goo-based ammo.

* ConvectionSchmonvection: Not touching lava, you're fine. Any part of you touche's lava? You're charcoal.
