Glitches

Glitches are a fault in games which produces an unexpected result, usually from errors. Like any video game, Sploder has a handful of glitches. While some glitches are harmless, short-lived, and sometimes even entertaining, some can occur for a long time, break functionality, and even harm the game (usually known as bugs).

Red text glitch instructions: Glitches that are severe or can make an level/game unplayable/unwinnable.

Blue text glitch instructions: Glitches only available in the level editor.

Green text glitch instructions: Glitches that benefit the player when creating a level or playing a level.

Yellow text glitch instructions: Minor glitch that doesn't really affect gameplay. A level can be beaten even with these glitches implemented in the level.

White normal/classic text glitch instructions: Glitches that only affect enemies.

Pink text glitch instructions: Glitches that only affect some objects.

Purple text glitch instructions: Neutral.

Current glitches

Objects Off The Grid

13 blocks off a grid.

To do this glitch, you must grab a object that attaches to an invisible grid (example, blocks). Then right click while holding the object, and a menu will appear. Release the object before closing the menu, and your object should be off the grid.

Broken Escape Pod Ending Sequence

To do this glitch, Get in a car, Start holding up while under the escape pod, and start holding down immediately after. The escape pod will activate and you'll remain the car. Exiting the car will end the glitch. If you stay in the car, the camera will eventually lock and then the level is completed in a funky way.

Weird Platform Mechanics

When the gravity switch is touched, Gary goes down and player goes up.

When you touch the gravity switch while a enemy is on a platform, the enemy will go through the platform and go down but you will go upside down still. This glitch only works in tech world. The reason why this works is because enemies and other objects can't flip gravity and the retro arcade game thinks the top of the platform is not solid, only the bottom, Not just for the player, but for everything. A demonstration of those glitches: weird platform mechanics and broken dyson sprite can be found here
