6!!Tropes included:

8* AltText: On every page.
9* ArchEnemy: Raj had been pursuing Rhiys since before the story. However, Rhiys also claimed the mysterious Sam as his nemesis.
10* ChaseScene: Raj and Rhiys, styled as a dotted-line adventure similar to ''ComicStrip/TheFamilyCircus''.
11* CowboyCop: Although he was just a security guard, Raj seemed to be one of these.
12* CuriousAsAMonkey: Cody.
13* DeusExMachina: Lampshaded (with a pun, no less).
14* FishOutOfWater: Jolee. Also a CountryMouse and NaiveNewcomer to the city, although she seemed pretty weird herself.
15* FrenchJerk: Antoine, a restaurant Maitre D', wass as snooty as they come, even though he was some kind of cave-dwelling alien.
16* ImplacableMan: Raj seemed to be one of these. He survived a nuclear explosion with no apparent injury.
17* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Amy and Raj.
18* KarmaMeter: Karma Points were a 'cryptocurrency' encouraging citizens to do good deeds (with good and bad results).
19* LawOfConservationOfNormality: Despite the bizarre things going on in the first chapter, it was really about the normal problem of making friends in a new city.
20* LeParkour: Rhiys was a master of this.
21* ParodyNames: Seemingly every instance of a BlandNameProduct was played for a joke and logo parody.
22* MeatVersusVeggies: Rhiys and Jolee.
23* MoodLighting: The entire comic was mood lighting, mostly bright and neon.
24* MundaneFantastic: Port Metro was full of wacky exaggerations (explosive hamburgers, alien creatures / cultures, underground cave restaurants). Nobody except Jolee, a newcomer, treated any of these as unusual.
25* OddFriendship: Jolee and Rhiys.
26* PerkyGoth: Amy Fang, star of an earlier comic called Dead Metaphor, was basically this. Also a {{Metalhead}}.
27* ShoutOut: Numerous Disney movie shout-outs dotted the first chapter.
28* SliceOfLifeWebcomics: Allowing for the weirdness of the world, ''Woo Hoo!'' was basically one of these.
29* TheCameo: Full of these. Many extras were pulled from the creators' previous works. Also, Music/DevinTownsend was apparently the Mayor.
30* TheCity: Port Metro seemed to be a blend of Vancouver and Seattle. It was also CityOfAdventure, or at least Rhiys saw it as one.
31* UndergroundCity: The Subterrain. A significant amount of the story took place BeneathTheEarth.
32* UnsoundEffect: Raj was introduced with one of these.
