Elephant Quest is another Web Game from Jmtb 02 featuring the blue elephant from Achievement Unlocked. This time, the elephant's hat has been stolen by Wooly the bullying mammoth, so you must navigate several areas of platforming, complete fetch quests for your elephant peers, fend off monsters, and level up your skills in preparation for your final confrontation with Wooly.
Tropes used in Elephant Quest include:
- Airborne Mook: Repulsers, Zippers, and Chasers.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: You'll meet elephants of every color on your quest. And Wooly is purple.
- Apathetic Citizens: The NPC elephants are all quite unfazed by all the aggressive critters that surround them. They'll even blithely converse with you while you're being mobbed by monsters.
- Collision Damage
- Dashingly Dapper Derby: A fittingly classy hat for an Honorable Elephant.
- Defeat Means Friendship: After defeating Wooly, you make friends with him and let him borrow your hat.
- Demonic Spiders: Zippers.
- Enemy Summoner: Wooly periodically summons a flock of Zippers to annoy you during the final boss fight.
- Evil Is Bigger: Wooly is huge compared to your elephant.
- Fetch Quest: The other elephants will give you lots of these. Some are necessary to get to the final boss, others are just to get extra weapons and powers.
- Final Boss: Wooly.
- The Goomba: Crawlers.
- Invulnerable Civilians: The other elephants are invulnerable both to monster attacks and to your own bullets.
- Jive Turkey: Mr. W.
- MacGuffin: The bowler hat.
- Metroidvania
- More Dakka: The fetch quests will reward you with more guns that you tow behind you in a little wagon train. You can also earn little winged purple elephants that hover around you shooting anything in the vicinity. By the time you get to the Final Boss fight, you can barely see the screen because of all the dakka you're firing at him.
- Nice Hat: It was so nice that it triggered the whole plot.
- Smashing Hallway Traps of Doom: The Droppers basically act like this.
- Spikes of Doom
- What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?: Wooly stole your hat! And you will stop at nothing to get it back.
