History VideoGame / YoNoid2EnterTheVoid

* WereStillRelevantDammit: InUniverse, PlayedForLaughs and [[PlayedForDrama drama]]. The Noid has a dab button, which initially seems like nothing more than to add more to the game's RuleOfFunny. [[spoiler:However, at the end of the game, Mike Hatsune talks at length about how the Noid and his world are outdated, casting his dab maneuver in a darker light and making it seem more like an attempt to stay relevant and avoid being destroyed]].

The game starts when the Noid's yo-yo is stolen. After recovering it, he finds himself in the titular Noid Void, a strange place where pizza toppings and sauces are sentient beings. One of them informs Noid that their Heavenly Spire, a literal tower of pizzas, was stolen, and Noid decides to pursue the thief, recover the pizzas, and go home. [[ExcusePlot There isn't much more to the plot]] without getting into spoilers.

* ElaborateUndergroundBase: Unique variation in that the base is inside a mechanical planet, the Noid Void. [[spoiler:It is a humongous facility with TV screens showing the face of the BigBad, Hatsune Mike.]]

* ItsAllUpstairsFromHere: The [[TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon Noid Void]] has a section resembling the inside of a tower as the main part of the level, and Noid must climb the tower.

* TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon: The Void Core, accessed after restoring the Leaning Tower of Pizza and going on top. It is a small, metal planet that [[spoiler:is lined with [=TVs=] and is dark; the dungeon requires you to ascend to the top to face Mike Hatsune, the man who built everything]].

* HeelFaceTurn: Mr. Green, the antagonist of ''Yo! Noid 1'', is a playable character in this game.

''Yo! Noid! 2: Enter the Void'' is a FanSequel to ''VideoGame/YoNoid'' created for the New Jam City game jam in 2017. The game is a 3D platform game with wall-running and grappling mechanics.

** One section in the final stage requires you to break a glass monitor, which requires grabbing one of the nearby dice with the Noid's yo-yo and spinning in circles to launch it with enough force to break the screen. This comes right before a boss fight where you have to do the same thing in more tense circumstances.
* BigBad: The one who stole Noid's yo-yo and the Leaning Tower of Pizzas is [[spoiler:Mike Hatsune, the father of [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} Hatsune Miku]] who wants to kill Noid so his daughter can replace him as Dominos' mascot]].

* ImmediateSequel: The game is set after the Noid claims his [[AndYourRewardIsEdible pizzas]] for saving New York in the original game.

* MooksButNoBosses: Inverted: There is only one enemy in the game, and that is [[spoiler:the FinalBoss, Mike Hatsune]]. The rest of the characters that appear in the game are harmless [=NPCs=].

* GameOfTheYearEdition: Parodied. The post-launch updated version bears the subtitle of "Game of ''a'' Year Edition".

*** The default Noid is "None Pizza", a reference to the infamous "None Pizza with Left Beef" meme.

** The final boss of the game is [[spoiler:a blue-haired man named [[Music/HatsuneMiku Mike Hatsune]], who makes reference to creating a [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} "vocal Noid"]]]]. This is a reference to [[spoiler:Scott Oelkers, the RealLife president of Domino's Japanese branch, who was infamous for appearing in [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=UVV95JQcWhg a promotional video]] for a 2013 collaboration between Domino's and Vocaloid in Japan. The arena you fight Mike in, feauring red and blue flashing tiles, is based on the dance floor used in the Pizza Stage Live app released for the collaboration. Distorted snippets of the promotional video can also be heard in the final level]].

* MooksButNoBosses: Inverted: There is only one enemy in the game, and that is [[spoiler:the FinalBoss, Mike Hatsune]]. The rest of the characters that appear in the game are harmless NPCs.

* MooksButNoBosses: Inverted: the final boss of the game is the only enemy.

** The character select menu has a few:

*** [[Music/Crush40 Crust 40]] has you play as a {{Franchise/Sonic|TheHedgehog}}-like Noid.

*** ''Game of a Year Edition'' even adds in a playable character [[spoiler: "Mikoid", which is the Noid [[{{Cosplay}} cosplaying]] as Miku, complete with her square ponytail holders for his ears.]]

*** ''Game of a Year Edition'' even adds in a playable character called [[spoiler: "Vocal Noid", which is the Noid [[{{Cosplay}} cosplaying]] as Miku, complete with her square ponytail holders for his ears.]]

** The humanoid Noids have a ''dab'' button, and they emit small noises whenever they dab.

* MoodWhiplash: The first level of the game is a relatively normal affair, with colorful graphics and cheery music. As soon as you finish it, you end up in the "Noid Void", and the game's existential theme appears out of nowhere.

* WereStillRelevantDammit: InUniverse, PlayedForLaughs and [[PlayedForDrama drama]]. The Noid has a dab button, which initially seems like a goofy function. Thanks to controller support, you can even have ''pressure-sensitive'' dabs. [[spoiler:However, at the end of the game, Mike Hatsune talks at length about how the Noid and his world are outdated, casting his dab maneuver in a darker light and making it seem more like an attempt to stay relevant and avoid being destroyed]].

** The final boss of the game is [[spoiler:a blue-haired man named [[Music/HatsuneMiku Mike Hatsune]], who makes reference to creating a [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} "vocal Noid"]]]]. This is a reference to [[spoiler:the RealLife cross-promotion with Domino's Pizza and Vocaloid (distorted snippets of the promotion's announcement video can be heard in the final level)]].

* SuperSpeed: "Fast", otherwise known as Crust 40, has the speed to match his [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog inspired appearance]].
* TempleOfDoom: Domino Dungeon fits the mold, filled with archaic architecture, desert-level-inspired music {{Lock and Key Puzzle}}s, and devious traps.

* FollowTheMoney: The collectible pieces of pepperoni mostly serve the purpose of telling you where to go. They also replace the pizza boxes in the Noid Void that act as level entrances and steps to the final level with golden versions if you collect all of them in one level.

* GravityScrew: The gimmick of the Noid Roid in Plizzanet is that you're on a much smaller planet, with gravity effects similar to ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy''.

** The final boss of the game is [[spoiler:a blue-haired man named [[Music/HatsuneMiku Mike Hatsune]]. He also makes reference to creating a [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} "vocal Noid"]]]].

* VariableMix: Most stages have songs that change instrumentation depending on where you are in the level.
