Local[edit]
- It's always good to know how to make a quick exit

No new dialogue is added (which is uh...)
Bubble 1-4 + Boss 1 encounter[edit]
Local[edit]
- I feel like I've seen the boss of this island somewhere before...
World 2[edit]
Storo boards the ship once World 2 is reached. All dialogue concerning him becomes global. The following division was tested using savestates on an emulator, by traveling to a previous world first.
Global[edit]
- There are doors hidden in many stages that are shortcuts to the goal
- The fellow behind you goes by the name Storo
- The Skull Gang that patrols this island is unrelenting (dialogue obtained in World 1 & 2 despite island specific mention; might disappear once unpatrolled)
- My friend Storo behind you might seem like a brute
Local[edit]
- Stay on the lookout for skull-shaped keys (could become future global?)
- This place has gotten so hot that much of what used to be here has dried up
- If you get swept up in a sandstorm, you'll take damage
- There are so many cactus creatures in the desert

- It might seem safe to walk on sand. And it is
- The legends of this place tell of a mighty guardian known as the Great Gear
- The little spiked plant that often comes in stacks is called a Stactus
- Rain rarely falls in this desert. All this dry air is making my fur itch!
- Desert plants thirst for water
- Foes wrapped in bandages will keep bouncing back, good as new (foe-specific)
- Sandstorms can drop items when they blow through
- Necrodeus hates light and wants to steep the world in darkness (could become furure global?)
- This island is actually a bottomless pit filled with sand
- The foes wrapped up in bandages are called Mummbons (foe-specific)

Misc. ramblings[edit]
Remixes:
- Banner (jingle based on main motif)
- Beginner's Field (slight variations, nothing drastic)
- Cake Royale! (has a Kirby's Triumphant Return fanfare at the start and is finite, otherwise same track)
- Title (main motif only, reinstrumented and sped up)
- Main Menu (minor electric guitar remix, sections modified according to the key)
- Collection Mode (calm remix; check for 2nd section!)
- Battle Prep (Normal) (epic remix, second section sees some development of the main motif instead of its latter half)
- End Interview (jingle based on motif)
Partial remixes (?):
- Prologue (1st section is modified 2nd of theme)
- Warp Star Ride (based on 2nd section)
- Training Room (Green Greens with main motif used as an ostinato)
- Battle Arena (starts the same, second section goes elsewhere before going Kirby's Triumphant Return)
- Results (after Kirby Dance: 1st section vaguely familiar (Prologue?, 2nd is a variation of main motif)
- Final Results (after Kirby Dance: main motif starts but transforms into something similar to KTR)
- Attack Riders + Hurry Up! Attack Riders (heavily modified, but generally same motifs)
- Crazy Theater (all 4 versions) (all use the main motif as their basis)
- Robo Bonkers (+ Ambush) (has elements, PROBABLY of 2nd section too + has elements of Green Greens, The Noble Haltmann and for some reason Dark Crafter Battle)
- Dededestroyer Z Appears (motif mashed together with Dedede's theme)
- Dededestroyer Z (motif appears a minute into the piece, precedes KTR twice in a row)
- Ending (first section mixed with a New Wind for Tomorrow and Green Greens)
- Staff Credits (medley including I think Title theme, plus many others on the list)
Influence in: (actually I don't know the 2nd section well enough so this list includes MORE THAN IT SHOULD)
- Stadium Entrance (primarily Green Greens)
- League Battle Entrance (up and down fifths and sicths maybe? Idk it sounds like Welcome to Wondaria's ending even though they're obviously not related)
- Let the Games Begin! (not because I hear a similarity but because it's so darn short and insignificant)
- Coin Clash (similar melody, that's about it)
- Rocket Rumble (sounds familiar, so a solid candidate to leave this list when I find out what it is)
- Battle Prep (Qualifier) (see League Battle Entrance)
- League Battle Failure (mainly Green Greens, MIGHT have elements?)
- Ore Express (passes the vibe check, based on SOMETHING, but what?)
- Flagball (mainly rhythmical similarity)

The purpose of this list is to keep track of all music pages, given that there is no dedicated category for these, and many duplicates arise when checking categories for individual games.

Clash themes[edit]
Because there's SO MANY of these, I need to sort things out separately. Using User:Skull/Games with no Sound Tests and User:Gigi/Sandbox/Music for reference. And Town (theme) and Ordeal (theme) as well now.
Quest Board theme[edit]
Basically same as town theme? But minor?
- TKCD
- SKC (2 versions)
Rumble go brr[edit]
Basically, every instance in which a Nintendo Switch controller (Joy Con or Pro Controller) does a funny buzz. Currently exclusive to Super Kirby Clash, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe (demo).
SKC[edit]
Event | Description |
---|---|
Charging attack (Spin Splash/Twister Slash, Hammer Flip, Healing Area, Time Beam) | Small shake for every level of charge, final one being the strongest. |
Team Meteor landing | Violent shake |
KatFL[edit]
Event | Description |
---|---|
Car Mouth Kirby Turbo Dash | Rumble with motor sound |
Capsule opening | Popping and opening sensation? |
Gotcha Machine Alley crank turn | Strong rumble with every turn, then a shake and pop when the capsule lands |
Sleeping in Kirby's House | Two gentle shakes as snores |
Throughout The Brawl at the Mall | Rumble timed with footsteps |
Boss roar | A brief shake |
Boss defeat | Two shakes: one for the final blow, another for the explosion |
KRtDLD[edit]
Event | Description |
---|---|
Hi-Jump Rocket Dive bumping into the floor | Brief shake mimicking the impact |
Uhhh | There were definitely more |
Recurring level design elements[edit]
Starting this out of curiosity, mainly. Feel free to contribute.
Visual gimmicks[edit]
Follow the treasure hunter[edit]
If left untouched, this foe will lead Kirby to a stash of treasure.
- Polof will disappear through an invisible door in Sand Canyon - Stage 1 which leads to a room with a Point Star formation with a 1-Up in the middle in Kirby's Dream Land 3
- An Awoofy will walk up an escalator and towards a Blue Star Coin near the exit of the first room of A Trip to Alivel Mall in Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Sacrificial foe[edit]
A simple foe is defeated by a stage hazard or other foe, demonstrating that it is dangerous.
- A Waddle Dee is incinerated by a burst of lava in Hot Wings from Kirby's Epic Yarn
- The trio of Spear Waddle Dees are crushed by a snowball-making Waddle Dee in the first portion of Snowy Fields from Kirby's Epic Yarn
- A Beanbon immediately drowns in quicksand in Sandy Canyon - Stage 1 in Kirby Mass Attack
- A Beanbon gets caught up in a fatal sandstorm in Sandy Canyon - Stage 7 in Kirby Mass Attack
Warp Star shenanigans[edit]
Terrain and layout[edit]
Checkered Star Blocks[edit]
A large area full of Star Blocks alternating with empty space, occasionally with foes. Typically has a Starman at the base to test the Hi-Jump ability.
Door labyrinth[edit]
Not to be confused with #Pick the right path blindly
Food in a pond[edit]
Approaching a small rectangular body of water will drop food in it, typically a Maxim Tomato.
Inside a tree trunk[edit]
Characteristic of Green Greens and referenced further. Typically home to Needlous, carefree Waddle Dees, Waddle Doos, and many Star Blocks.
Pit of pits[edit]
Often introducing bottomless pits, there are formations of a large gap with several short and narrow cliffs within it.
Watch out below[edit]
The character is punished for staying in the trajectory of a falling Rocky, Bomber, Foley, coconut, boulder or other foe or hazard when climbing alternating platforms or vertical shafts.
Puzzles[edit]
Cannon labyrinth[edit]
Hidden in plain sight[edit]
A collectible or valuable Point Star is hidden somewhere within semi-transparent stage elements or in a corner of the screen.
- The first Crystal Shard of Pop Star - Stage 2 is located directly beneath the moving platform maneuvered by Waddle Dee
- The first Crystal Shard of Shiver Star - Stage 2 is hidden under one of the cloudy platforms
- The first Crystal Shard of Neo Star - Stage 2 can be found to the left of the immediately visible screen amidst Point Stars
- The second Energy Sphere of Cookie Country - Stage 2 is hidden in the leaves at the top of the tree in Kirby's Return to Dream Land
- A blue Point Star is hidden in the top left cloud of the first room of Nutty Noon - Stage 1 in Kirby's Return to Dream Land
- The fourth Energy Sphere of Nutty Noon - Stage 3 is hidden in the clouds of the final room in Kirby's Return to Dream Land
- A Picture Piece is hidden behind a banner in Clash at Castle Dedede in Kirby Star Allies
Hit the switch and run[edit]
A switch, stake or Bomb Block lies at the start of an optional portion of the stage, and must be hit to progress or reach a collectible or the like. However, unbreakable terrain appears shortly after in specific formations, requiring a well-planned trajectory.
Hit two, skip the third[edit]
Three Bomb Blocks or Stakes activate or deactivate a pillar of induced explosion blocks. Visual cues indicate that one such block/switch will prevent the player from reaching the guarded collectible.
A similar premise is found in Dangerous Dinner - Stage 1, where Kirby may find a side room where he must hit or avoid certain members in a lengthy line of Switches with the right timing to bring the Key Dee there his way.
Leave a projectile on the switch[edit]
Light the fuse and run[edit]
A specific example of #Hit the switch and run. A fuse must be lighted in one part of the room, which starts a race between Kirby and the lit fuse to the Cannon.
Light the fuse and wait[edit]
As opposed to the aforementioned puzzle, here the length of the fuse is significantly longer than the player's path, which gives the player plenty of time to enter the Cannon.
Maneuver the Wheel[edit]
Pick the right path blindly[edit]
Kirby is occasionally given a split path with little to no indication of what he should choose. Sometimes he is given the opportunity to backtrack, but he will often need to restart the stage to reach his goal.
Remember the path down[edit]
Kirby moves one way along a lengthy, complicated path that can lead toward multiple objectives - one he really wants, one he doesn't, and often one he really doesn't want. Usually, the complexity is determined by the path that is forced to turn at every interval given, on top of being given to Kirby in reverse order. Kirby will then need to choose the path he wants to take in hopes of getting the right objective. The path back will be obstructed, usually by a strong water current.
