Old-School Gameplay: Get the Girl and Kill the Baddies!

It's alright to not know what the hell I'm playing. Unless you knew of the band Pop Will Eat Itself, you most likely didn't. This game is your traditional sidecrolling shooter, but really easy in some points. Each level references a song or lyric (annonations as well as the description (see bottom) will say what). This game was little known, and isn't even on the internet in any way shape or form anymore; I had to use Webarchive on the band's site to get it.

On Patrol!: Enemies are a band mini-logo.
DEF.CON.ONE: Song has name, burger boss references lyrics.
The Incredible...: Bandname abbreviation.
MENOFEARTHEREAPER: Song of same name.
Will You Speak Out?: Lyrics to the song "Ich Bin Ein Auslander".
He's a Thriller in Manilla!: Not sure.
Bulletproof?: Song of same name.
Time to Get Ugly!: The band themselves (enemies are their heads).

Gila the gorilla is a thriller in manilla. Lines from the RSVP CD art where the line 'thriller in manilla' is used in the song to describe Prince Charles.
