** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdE3n-pxF5Y ''Presenting VVVVVV'']] is a chilling title theme that gets more epic nearly halfway through.

* ParodyDisplacement: In at least some corners of the internet, the "Pushing Gaywards" parody of "Pushing Onwards" is better-known than the original song.

And this rating is based on what, exactly?


** "...Not As I Do" is a 13/10 in difficulty because it involves an EscortMission. You need to cross a room via three vertically moving platforms in one go (spikes forbid you from standing and catching a breather) to reach an alcove, then guide your companion through the room (hoping the finnicky AI will actually start and stop walking when you want him to), then go back to the start (again in one go), and finally cross the room yourself. The level of continued precision required to get through this level... let's just say there's at least one player out there who's still stuck there, having never seen the rest of the game due to it.

Added back the Awesome Music examples with context, added context to Pushing Gaywards, and as for the deleted Memetic Mutation entries, I could care less about them now. Just ignore what I said on the Discussion page.


* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tp3qiOKuEBM Positive Force]], which is hands down THE best theme in the whole game. It's a medley of every other theme in the game, with Pushing Onwards as the main soundfont. And it. Is. AWESOME. And the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVNSBlKdakw reverse version]] sounds as good!
** And if you play some of the custom levels, you'll discover "Piercing the Sky," which is somehow even more awesome!

[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25m3Gk7mRQM "Pushing Onwards"]], the music for the Space Station levels, is very fun and catchy: a perfect introduction to this game's style of chiptune music.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uj8MsbgpjaQ "Potential for Anything"]] is a bit slower than the other level songs, but just as determined-sounding. It really makes you feel like you have to potential to do anything.

** And if [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0gOUmQ39uk "Pressure Cooker"]], the music for the Warp Zone, is a groovy chiptune/dance fusion that is sure you play some of to make you at least bob your head or tap your feet to the custom levels, you'll discover rhythm.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1zxRWDb4V4 "Popular Potpourri"]], the credits theme, is an upbeat and celebratory theme that is fitting for the end of a journey.

"Piercing the Sky," Sky"]], which is somehow even more awesome!was introduced in the 2.0 update, takes the determination of some of the tracks and takes it several steps further, making it a contender for one of the most awesome songs in the game. It doesn't play in the main game, so you'll have to play one of the custom levels or create one yourself to hear it in-game.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yRSkV9Bmhw "Paced Energy"]], also from the 2.0 update, combines the standard catchy chiptune goodness of the OST with a heavy, almost industrial beat.
** The 3DS version introduces a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFC9evxao_I remix of "Predestined Fate"]], which takes the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yv_lcgLFJmc original]]'s mellow vibe and turns it bright and catchy. It was later added to other versions of the game.

The video has caused quite a bit of association, so whenever you look in the comments section of [=YouTube=] uploads of "Pushing Onwards", expect someone to quote the video, especially the opening line, "Oh shit, I'm sorry".[[/note]]

* GoodBadBugs: An [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn9GP_AZa5Y exploit]] was found by speedrunners that allows both intermission scenes to be skipped entirely, thus greatly reducing the amount of time required to speedrun the game. Terry Cavanaugh has [[https://twitter.com/terrycavanagh/status/424236486590885889 acknowledged]] this, saying that "This is the result of a bug that I'm so glad I never fixed."
