Swimming Mouth Creature

The **Swimming Mouth Creature** is a briefly encountered major hazard in the Lethal Specimen Facility.

## Description

This living barge of a mutant appears as a huge, upside-down mound-shaped creature with multiple eyes that follow Troy near the top, some of which are on stalks. The top is dominated by a colossal mouth with a tongue that can shoot out and grab Troy.

## Behavior

The Floating Mouth will stay in the large pool of water(?) found after the first checkpoint in the Lethal Specimen Facility. It'll float directly underneath Troy as he tries to climb over the pool, and will shoot its tongue out to grab them if Troy's head gets too close. This isn't always fatal, and can be escaped.

## Trivia

* Its prehensile tongue, teeth color, and body color and shape bear similarity to the Pig Monster, mean that what it may.
Geysers

**Geysers** are a common environmental object encountered in Canyon, and rarely in Buzz levels.

## Behavior

Geysers appear facing most commonly upwards, and will shoot a stream of hot water (or rainbows during the buzz chapter) every few seconds that propels whatever is in the geyser in that direction. They are used to launch Troy to areas they couldn't reach otherwise, or pose as a hazard that pushes them into spikes.

## Appearance

The geysers in Canyon levels are a circular crater-like structure with smaller pools around it. They shoot a stream of water and steam upwards, like a real geyser.

In Buzz levels, they are a small pile of purple flowers and possibly leaves. they spew out rainbows.

Both variants act identically.

Biomass Density

Biomass Density is a parameter that determines the density of biomass energy per unit of terrain squared (E/u2). It can be seen as the general fertility of the simulation space.

As the simulation is a closed system, the total amount of energy available to the simulation can be calculated with the following formula:

TE = Biomass Density \* Simulation Size2

Where TE is the total amount of energy.

The maximum total amount of plant pellet that can exist given a set of settings can be approximated with the following formula :

This parameter can be found in the world options.

### Effect on the Simulation

This parameters directly influences the maximum and total amount of energy available in the simulation.

Since biomass is nearly all converted to pellets at the start of the simulation, you can approximate the initial number of pellets in a simulation using the following formula:

No. of pellets = (Biomass Density \* Simulation Size2 - 5000E) / Average Pellet Size

As a result we can see this setting will directly drive the initial count of pellets.

A value that is too low would make it hard for a sustainable lineage to develop and take hold, as the initial pellet density would be too low. Of course, as mutations are random, there is always a slim possibility that a beneficial mutation can develop given a sufficient amount of time. But still, lower values for this parameter tends to make survival less likely and will require a longer amount of time for a sustainable lineage to take hold.

Inversely, a value that is too high could be problematic by producing an overabundance of pellets. By itself this isn't too bad on computer performance, but it presents a risk that the initial spike of Bibite population count (*as a sustainable lineage starts reproducing and spreading across the simulation space*) would become excessive and present a heavy load on the machine the simulation is running on.

the default value given is considered the best value to allow Bibites to conserve energy enough to evolve, while also allowing there to be a healthy amount of competition from other Bibite lineages.

Experimentation is encouraged, as some experimentation is needed to find the right value, other parameters can also be used to reduce the initial spike while trying to provide a "*welcoming*" environment for a lineage to take hold. A possible strategy is to let Bibites evolve in a high density environment and place them in a low density environment when the computer workload becomes too much.
Laboratory

The **Laboratory** or "lab" for short is the first chapter in struggling, and is Troy's place of birth. It is by far the easiest chapter in the entire game, and is in fact, the starting point of the game. As expected, it goes with a scientific lab theme.

This chapter contains 10 Hats, and 7 exclusive achievements. The hazards happen to be the Swimming Mouth Creature, Pig Monster, Toxic waste, rats, and spikey fetuses. It is succeeded by cave.

The music in this chapter are: E = MC Rave, Spiky Fetus Dubstep, Mucus Circus, Lame Bossa Nova and Chasing Rats.

## Game areas

### Laboratory I - Unknown

It is named unknown because this part has no name at all, this point is where we meet the ugly creature known as troy, an amalgam of hector and achilles. This is a relatively short point in this chapter.

### Laboratory II - Nightclub of Nerds

Yet another short area in the game, and the first area in the game to be named. It showcases a room with a bunch of scientists, a microphone on the top, and a banner that say "congratulations dave".

### Laboratory III - Lethal Specimen Facility

This is the first area in the game where troy is face with actual danger (excluding lab I if you choose to not get the first hat obtainable in the game). This is also is first and only encounter with the Swimming Mouth Creature, in which troy has to avoid it or get eaten, then after that, has to either accidentally release spiky fetuses that fall from the ceiling or avoid pressing the button an go on peacefully.

### Laboratory IV - Late-Night Regret Department

This area contains a giant pool of toxic waste that troy can get over with a rope, then go to an elevator, in which he can either confront the pig or avoid it by reclosing the door and pressing the button.

### Laboratory V - Irreproachable Ventilation Network

This area is one giant vent that even touches the storage room. This is where rats spawn and nibble on the brothers, and as the brothers continue to traverse the vents, rats swarm the vents in large numbers in which troy must escape or meet his demise.

### Laboratory VI - Waste Disposal Wing

The last area of this chapter. Troy must use a magnetic machine and move giant scrap elsewhere and get himself across the pools of waste in order to gain access to a long pipe that leads to the cave.

## Aftermath

After troy is done moving giant scraps to where-ever and going inside the giant pipe, he gets sent to the cave, and, more specifically, the mine of mistakes.

## Trivia

* This is the easiest chapter in the whole game.
* This chapter is the only chapter where no gods of abomination are encountered.
* This chapter also has the least amount of game areas in the entire game, a similarity this chapter shares with buzz.
* This is one of the two chapters where you do not get an Abomination God Blessing, the other being buzz.
* Amadeus the Firstborn, Agamemnus and the duck are also seen in the lab at the ending of the game.
Metaphorical Duck

**The Metaphorical Duck, the Dank Puppet** is the final boss of Struggling. It is a supermassive mallard duck armed in full battle attire found in the last stage of the "buzz" chapter. Morpheus can be found controlling its brain.

## Battle

To fight the duck, Achillies and Hector must climb up and around its massive body to reach three spears lodged into its flesh, and stab them in deeper (you'll know you've done it when the wound spits rainbows). Troy can grab onto any part of the duck, but parts of its body such as the legs and tongue will move a lot, making the task easier said than done. The large waving feathers will come off when grabbed, so keep a firm grip on the duck as you grab the feathers. Occasionaly, the Metaphorical Duck will call a smaller duck that will fly at Troy to destroy one of his arms and make him fall. Once all the wounds are punctured, Troy will fall off, and the Metaphorical Duck will look down on him and smile- before picking him up with his beak and sending him down the hatch.

If Achillies and Hector die during any point in the Metaphorical Duck boss, the entire fight must be restarted, which is actually less than a slap on the wrist, however, This actually isn't as bad as you'd think, as falling off the duck without dying still means you have to start the climb over. Get over it, you two!

## Quack Facts

* As the name implies, the Metaphorical Duck is not real, it is a creation of Troy's mind from the spores of the mushrooms he fell on. After Morpheus dies, Troy is seen in a boat with a dead duck, presumably what **was** the Metaphorical duck.
* Furthermore, it can be seen in a containment tube post-credits alongside Amadeus and Agamemnus.
* During this last level, Troy will still be smiling, but there's a chance he will return to moaning like in the previous levels due to a bug.
* Speaking of bugs- son of a glitch, this fight is full of 'em! During the fight, there's a chance that the two parts of the duck's tongue (the section of the tongue that's a part of the head sprite, and the part of the tongue that actually reacts to physics) will begin to deviate from one another, making a very noticable gap in the duck's tongue. As far current knowledge goes, this will not have any huge impacts on gameplay.
* The entire battle is a huge homage to *Shadow of the Colossus.* The song that plays during the battle is even called "Shadow of the Ducklossus."
* The name of its level, "Anatidaephobia" is the fear that somehow, somewhere, a duck is watching you. (Yes, this is an **actual** condition).
A Blooming Mess

> Emily, you must go to Maithwaite and collect flowers for the new window-boxes..."
> "Flowers? How lovely! I know all about flowers. I know that buttercups are yellow..."
> "Emily! ...and then take them to Knapford Station."
> "Yes sir.
>
> Sir Topham Hatt giving orders to chatterbox Emily

**A Blooming Mess** is the twelfth episode of the thirteenth series.

## Plot

Knapford Station is being redecorated. Thomas is tasked to collect slate for the new roof. Emily is tasked with picking up flowers for the station by the Fat Controller. Excitedly, Emily says that she knows all about flowers and she knows that buttercups are yellow, but before she could say another word, the Fat Controller regains her attention and tells her to take the flowers to the station.

As she puffs along, she says hello to James and Toby, who reply back. When Mavis does not say hello, Emily assumes she is sad and chuffs to the quarry to cheer her up with some of the new flowers, only to cause Edward and Thomas to crash into the flatbeds she left behind. When Mavis returns to see her quarry in a state of confusion, Emily apologises for causing it as she thought Mavis was upset. Mavis assures her she was just thinking about all the work she needs to do. Emily feels silly and wonders what would make Mavis happy. Mavis tells Emily that to make her happy she would like the mess tidied up and Emily's load of flowers taken straight to Knapford. Emily complies, even helping out Thomas since his firebox was extinguished. When Mavis stops by Knapford Station later to see the flowers as they are planted and mentions how wonderful they look, Emily is glad to see her happy.

Morpheus

**Morpheus, the Feeble Puppeteer**, is the main antagonist of Struggling. He is a Post-agamemnus abomination god, and the true final boss of the game (and ironically, also the easiest, should you exclude agamemnus.) He is the second eldest of the abomination gods. The Feeble Puppeteer is encountered in the buzz chapter and is found inside the brain of his Dank Puppet, the Metaphorical Duck at the end of the game.

## Appearance

Morpheus is by far the smallest of the Gods, but he is still bigger than Troy(ironically, lighter than troy). His body is composed purely of a head with a small tail, giving him the appearance of a fetus. He has one eye, two pores on his head which Troy later plugs with their arms, and a prounounced chin, underneath which is a larger second mouth with crocodile-like teeth [it is VERY hard to see, though]. When Troy encounters Morpheus, the latter is connected to a giant brain by several long tendrils.

## Battle

This is a spoiler for the story, so if you don't want to be spoiled then simply avoid this part.

After the fight with the Metaphorical Duck, the massive mallard swallows Achillies and Hector whole, causing them to end up in its brain. There, Morpheus is attatched to the duck's brain by several tendrils. Morpheus is shocked that they've arrived, and upon possibly realising he has no way of defending himself, simply looks away and whistles. Troy must simply use a nearby part of the duck's cranial chamber to launch himself up and tear Morpheus down. Then, Troy has to detatch his arms, attatch them to his adevsary, and in a similar fashion to Troy himself, clamber up the wall into a nearby vat of acid. The interior of the duck then begins to flood with rainbows, to Troy's unparalleled delight. With that, the brothers awaken from their surreal fever dream in a boat floating down a river as the credits roll.

## Speculation

Because Troy is high on hallucinogenic spores for the entierty of the "Buzz" chapter, it is hard to say what and where Morpheus actually was. At the end of the game, the corpse of a mallard can be seen in Troy's boat, with the implication being that this was the Metaphorical Duck they were "fighting." And for an unexplained reason, this same duck is then seen in the very last cutscene, locked up in a pod similarly to the abominations. We know Morpheus is real due to one damning peice of evidence: It's very easy to miss, but in the Lab, a containment unit can be found with his name on it. Overall, we may never know the truth.

## Trivia

* Morpheus is named after the son of Somnus, the Greek god of sleep and dreams, which makes sense since Morpheus is fought inside a dream.

* At the beginning of Buzz, a red eye can be seen on the rock Troy is sitting on. This eye can also be seen on the doors that appear between levels, both bearing immense similarity to Morpheus's eye.

* Morpheus is the only abomination god to NOT give an Abomination god blessing.

* Morpheus is also the smallest of the abomination gods.

**Toby and Bash** is the second episode of the fifteenth series.

## Plot

Today, it is Bash's turn to get his reward for being useful. He is to spend the day with Toby and help do his jobs all around the island. By the time they finish, it is dark and both engines are tired. Toby knows where to go, so he takes Bash to his shed at Arlesdale End. Bash loves the shed because it is so peaceful and is soon fast asleep. Toby watches over him and decides that Bash would like to live on Sodor.

The next morning, the two engines set out looking for a place where Bash can stay; first, they try the Fenland. Bash is about to tell Toby that he wants to go home, but Toby interrupts him. Then a flock of ducks swoop down on Bash, who runs off very scared. Next, Toby takes Bash to Farmer McColl's field. Again Bash tries to tell Toby that he wants to go home when Toby interrupts. Then Bash is scared by a group of cows and runs off. Finally they arrive at the cliffs that overlook the Search and Rescue Centre.

Bash once again tries to tell Toby that he wants to go home, but Toby interrupts him. Then Bash sees Dash and Ferdinand chuffing back home to Misty Island and Toby notices that Bash is sad. Bash tells Toby that he wants to go home. Toby is shocked and realises that he should have listened to what Bash wanted.

So the two engines race through the Misty Island Tunnel and out onto Misty Island. Dash and Ferdinand are pleased to see their friend and Bash explains to Toby that Misty Island is just as peaceful as Arlesdale End. Toby realises that there is no place like home.

> Thomas talking to the bees

**Buzzy Bees** is the nineteenth episode of the thirteenth series.

## Plot

One morning, Thomas arrives at Brendam Docks. He is to take beehives to Farmer Trotter and Hiro is to deliver flowers to Farmer McColl. Hiro is very stern and tells Thomas to take the bees through the woods. But Thomas thinks that the woods are very boring and takes the route along a large meadow instead. The bees escape, however, and will not come back to the hives, as they are too busy with the flowers in the meadow. Thomas decides to borrow Hiro's flower truck that Hiro had left at Farmer McColl's to lure the bees back. However, the bees start to swarm around Thomas, much to his dismay. Hiro meets Thomas at a junction and tells Thomas that his truck of flowers had gone missing. Thomas tells Hiro the whole story and vows to put the trouble right. Thomas collects the hive truck and couples it up to the flower truck. Then he takes the loads and the bees, who are still buzzing around him, through the cold and dark forest. The bees return to their hives, as a result of this and Thomas delivers them to Farmer Trotter. He then returns the flowers to Farmer McColl, apologises to Hiro and promises to take his advice from now on in the future.

Rejection

**Rejection is a way to eliminate rivals non-lethally.**

Placeholder Name is not able to fall in love with rivals on his own accord. He will start to develop a crush on a rival if they have five interaction events with him. Once a day, there will be an "event" with Placeholder Name, with the final event being a love confession. Ku Suto will be able to sabotage each event. If she sabotages all **five** events, Placeholder Name will reject the rival's love confession. Sabotaging **four** or less will make the outcome depend on the reputation of the rival.

Damaging a rival's reputation by gossiping about them is also another way to make Placeholder Name reject her love confession, as Senpai can never love someone with a low reputation. Placeholder Name will reject a love confession from Ku or a rival if their reputation is below -100.

It may be possible in the future to provoke a rival enough for them to attack Ku in front of Placeholder Name, allowing him to witness the event and reject your rival.

## Gameplay

### **Kawa Hirano**

*Main Article: Kawa Hirano*
On Monday, Ku must wait until Kawa finishes her painting and leaves it to dry, and then write mean things on it. When placeholder name sees the painting, he will be annoyed and disappointed.

On Tuesday, Ku must take the present that Kawa brings to school for placeholder name and burn it in the incinerator.

On Wednesday, Ku must record Kawa's conversation with the art club leader and report her to the counselor. This will give Kawa detention, effectively ruining the date.

On Thursday, Ku must pour water into the box Kawa is going to sit in. When Kawa sits in it, the water startles her and she falls and has to go to the Nurse's office.

On Friday, Ku must wait until 5:55 PM, and pour water onto Kawa. Then she must steal Kawa's phone, set it off of vibrate, and when Kawa is confessing, call her.

If all of these events have been sabotaged, placeholder name will reject Kawa's confession on Friday.
Snow Tracks

**Snow Tracks** is the seventeenth episode of the thirteenth series.

## Plot

A snowstorm has covered Sodor, and Thomas and Gordon are given important jobs. While doing his job, Gordon decides to take the shorter, hilly route because he thinks he is special and stronger. He slips several times, spraying Spencer with snow and crashing into some slate trucks. While climbing Gordon's Hill, he inadvertently creates a giant snowball that starts to roll back. It smashes into Thomas and he derails, who had been following him. While he is delivering his load, Gordon collects Rocky to put Thomas back on the rails. Then he helps Thomas do his job. That night, Gordon announces that no engine is special and they are all the best.

The Early Bird

> "Who knows, Kevin, who knows? Some early bird!

> Kevin and Victor

**The Early Bird** is the sixth episode of the thirteenth series.

## Plot

Percy is at the Sodor Steamworks for repairs, so the Fat Controller puts Thomas in charge of the mail run. Thomas is excited to do it, but Gordon tells him to ask Percy for advice on how. Thomas ignores Gordon and heads back to Tidmouth Sheds.

Early next morning, Thomas delivers mail to the Quarry, Brendam Docks and the steamworks. To alert managers at each location, he blows his whistle loudly, and unknowingly wakes up Mavis, Cranky, Victor and Kevin. On his way back, Thomas is surprised to see Mavis and Cranky making mistakes with their work, unaware that they have fallen asleep as a result of being woken too early.

When Thomas returns to Tidmouth Sheds, the Fat Controller severely speaks to him for blowing his whistle too loudly as Mavis and Cranky have made mistakes. Thomas feels bad. However, he is given a second chance to take the train again as Percy is still under repair. Gordon overhears the conversation, and recommends, again, that Thomas should ask Percy for advice. This time, Thomas puffs to the steamworks to ask Percy, and he tells Thomas to deliver the mail quietly and to not blow his whistle this time.

So when Thomas takes his second mail train, he quietly makes his deliveries and does not whistle. When he arrives back at the sheds, he is very happy, and then falls asleep.

Time for a Story

> I mustn't be late for story time! I'll chuff and I'll puff to be there on time!
>
> Thomas

**Time for a Story** is the ninth episode of the thirteenth series.

## Plot

New story books are to be delivered to the library for the school children's story time and the Fat Controller gives this special job to Thomas. Thomas goes to Maithwaite to collect the trucks full of books, but he is so excited about the children's storytime that he leaves too soon and does not wait for the stationmaster to cover the books to keep them inside the trucks. On his way to the library, Thomas sees a red signal ahead and goes down the branch line before he reaches the signal, so as to not be late for story time. However, Thomas soon pays the price for his impatience when he ignores warning signs about track repairs and hits the bumpy track, causing his trucks to derail, crash into Farmer McColl's Field and spill the books all over the field.

Thomas feels bad for being impatient, but he has an idea. Seeing how bright the colourful books are in the field, Thomas decides that instead of bringing the books to the children, he will bring the children to the books. So he collects Annie and Clarabel and then collects the schoolchildren and their teacher. Once back at Farmer McColl's Field, Thomas listens to the teacher telling a story about a boy who learned patience.

Agamemnus

"A being composed of four distinct abominations. A lover (Paris), a genius (Pandora) and a storyteller (Ulysses) together they mercifully hold back their fourth unholy sibling that would bring shame to all abominationkind."

-Agamemnus' trading card on steam

**Agamemnus, The Amalgam of Seduction**, is a post-Amadeus abomination god and the second boss of Struggling, found close to the end of the Canyon chapter. They are the youngest of the abomination gods(not to mention, the easiest, since, no matter which head you date, inluding patroclus, you get the time alteration power-up)

## Story

**WARNING! Spoilers follow. If you haven't cleared Story Mode yet, I recommend you skip this paragraph.**

Unlike the other Gods of Abomination, their "battle," if you can call it that, takes the form of "Meat and Greet, a Love Struggle," a minigame reminicent of a dating sim. If Troy fails to hook up with any of this flesh monster's three heads (Which is a sentence I never thought I'd type in my life...), they reveal Patroclus, a hidden fourth head that's much more open to the brothers about his love.

Upon giving the second God of Abomination its first friend, Troy gains the ability to slow time.

At the end of the game, Agamemnus can be seen locked up in the lab alongside Troy and Amadeus.

**Spoilers Over**

## Appearance

Agamemnus is a massive blob-like abomination that is smushed into the ceiling of a cave with huge, almost skeletal arms, and three heads. These heads include Paris, the leftmost head who resembles a surrealist painting. Pandora, the biggest head in the center who has an x-shaped hole in the middle of their face. And Ulysses, the rightmost head that resembles a skull. If rejected by the previous three heads, the game will reveal Patroclus, a head that sags from the bottom like a lump, has one eye, and a toothy mouth with lipstick.

## Aftermath

After dating one of the heads (including petroclus) you get the Abomination God Blessing, time alteration, in which it is the ability to briefly slow down time. Agamemnus allows troy to leave and continue on his journey, all the way to the muscle temple.

## Trivia

* Agamemnus are possibly named after *Agamemnon,* a king who tied into the tales of Achillies and Hector in Greek myth. If this is the case, their name is an impromptu of "Agamemnon" and "Us," because they're multiple beings meshed together.
* Similar to what's done with Amadeus, The choir heard during Agamemnus's introduction is just saying *"Agamemnus."*

According to Pandora, Agamemnus is the third abomination to be created (the first being Amadeus, and the second being Morpheus.)

* Denis, one of the game developers, has mentioned that Patroclus was actually grafted onto Agamemnus by scientists, and is not part of the original body.
Duncan and the Hot Air Balloon

> I know, Sir, my birthday flag. It just might be big enough!
>
> Duncan

**Duncan and the Hot Air Balloon** is the eleventh episode of the twelfth series.

## Plot

Duncan is disappointed to learn that instead of taking the Percival twins on a special train ride for their birthday, they will be having a ride in a hot air balloon. When Duncan collects the balloon, he is told to go carefully. But when he comes across some bumpy track, the balloon becomes untethered. Duncan slyly bangs into the balloon, causing it to float away. However, when the weather-vane on Mr. Percival's house tears a hole in the balloon, Duncan sees the error of his ways and owns up to Mr. Percival. Duncan collects the balloon repair man, who has little hope of repairing the balloon until Duncan suggests using his birthday flag to patch it.
