![]() He resembles the other Criminals with his crown and cape designating him as the King Mook. The Don: Rip-The-Blood is the leader of the Criminals occupying Malice and has to be defeated because his men are blocking the entrance to the forest.Defeating Moon reverts the land of Space Funeral back to its normal state, which resembles a stock RPG Maker setting. In addition, the perfect City of Forms is an Allegory for the archetypal Eastern RPG game, and the main antagonist, Moon, destroys the City's perfection to build something original, which explains how and why the land of Space Funeral underwent a Great Change. Space Funeral plays similarly to a standard RPG Maker game, but the game's Surrealism, incredibly messy art style, and nontraditional soundtrack distort the genre's traditions in such a way that the game ends up becoming a rather unique experience. Deconstruction Game: The game deconstructs the strict formula of the Eastern RPG genre and its RPG Maker imitators.She has a whopping 500 HP, so you're still unlikely to get a Game Over against her. (Except the final boss who doesn't have one.) He's also the only enemy in the game that won't die in one hit to his weakness. Unusually for this trope, though, it isn't a bad thing since you can get the Zorg Cannon early on and he only has 75 Defense. Which gives all enemies heart attacks, instantly killing them. Brown Note: One of the Mystery effects has Phillip sing an old song.Bold Inflation: In old-school RPG fashion, the speeches of NPCs have important subjects in ALL CAPS - except most of them are completely unimportant. ![]() Big Bad: MOON is the one that corrupted the world, as she felt that everything other than the City of Forms is meaningless.Art Shift: The world turns into stock RPG Maker assets in the ending.Given the game's fairly low difficulty, though, this isn't a problem.

Oh, and there's enough blood for everybody!Īlthough on the short side (it's possible to complete the game in well under an hour), Space Funeral is a fun deconstruction and parody of horror genres and role-playing games. Other highlights include largely macabre-yet-amusing writing, and a seemingly nonsensical story that intertwines wizards, Lucy from Peanuts, pirate squids, cranky mummies, literal crime lords, living slabs of steak, and Dracula. The game's music, a motley mix of mellow '60s classic rock, '80s Japanese electronica, and other antiqued styles, only adds to the weirdness.
