Scarfy inhale[edit]

The Scarfy inhale "glitch" never involves actually making the game's code do things it isn't supposed to, it just exploits an effect of one of Wing's attacks. Can it really be considered a glitch, then? - rubybirdy (talk · edits) 03:27, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Any world where you can inhale a Scarfy is glitched imo. ShadowKirby (t/c) a.k.a. your new overlord ShadowMagolor 09:55, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
I think it can, because it's still an unintended effect of gameplay. You're not supposed to be able to do this in game, even if the code technically allows for it. --Samwell (talk) 04:35, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
Glitches don't occur without unintended things happening anyway. Whether the missed intent is from a typo in code, a poorly executed mechanic/prevention, or just plain oversights, they all stem from the same cause: doing something you're not supposed to that playtesters somehow missed. ~ by Waddlez! 05:38, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
I am a programmer, so I suppose I can share my insight with those lens. A bug/glitch is classified as behavior a program does that is not intended, or doesn't work as intended. If someone is testing a program, they go after every use case and try to see if it works as intended by the designers or whatever. If it doesn't, it's a bug.
What a piece of code is supposed to do is actually hard to define, but usually what a code is supposed to do is relative. I've personally had many experiences where someone programmed a perfectly good code that appeared to work flawlessly, only for someone to find a very specific edge case in the future where someone could do something they shouldn't be able to do. This would then be flagged as a bug, and someone would be assigned to go fix it. Which, honestly, is basically the case of the Scarfy thing.
I see this similarly to the Guest Star Kirby glitch. It doesn't look like one, but ultimately it's unintended behavior that was later fixed. Unless in KSSU Kirby can also do the same with Scarfy (which would mean it's an intended feature, maybe), it is unintended behavior, on an enemy that is said to be immune to inhale, so it's a glitch. - Gigi (talkedits) 13:34, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
The glitch is present in KSSU, but I still think it's unintended (especially since it doesn't look like the glitch was discovered before KSSU), probably something with how it's basically ragdolling. ---PinkYoshiFan 19:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
