* ClicheStorm: Non-fans tend to have this opinion of the game, as it was released at a time where many people considered the Mario.EXE formula (as well as the .EXE games in general) to be outdated, overdone, and no longer scary, and this game unfortunately plays [[RedSkyTakeWarning too]] [[DarkReprise many]] [[HumanoidAbomination of]] [[TheChase its]] [[NightmareFace tropes]] straight for a lot of said people not to lump it in with the rest.

** Newer demos of the first level allow Lucas to ''fight back'' against MX to an extent by using the game's inertia physics against him, and even let you ''[[DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu jump on him]]'' to punish his approach. The creators have likened it to Lucas crossing-up MX on a basketball court until MX's ankles shatter from the strain.

** A mod of the original game with MX PromotedToPlayable has the pre-chase cutscene play out as normal, only for the iconic catchphrase to be interrupted by a RecordScratchEffect as it pans to the real MX, who is just upset that the buildup was ruined, before just transforming immediately.

* NarmCharm: The cheery music from the original game plays at times that [[MoodWhiplash kills the scary atmosphere]], yet is also out-of-place enough to take on its own creepiness, such as when the "low time" sound effect plays when you're told to "RUN!" from MX, or when the original "game over" music plays as you see Lucas's head on a stake.

Now no longer Fanon, since Lucas can speak now in the new canon.
