This may derive from the Thumpie having something to do with Dave Kerr, perhaps him coming up with the idea and/or design for the Thumpie. In the files, Karrtoof's texture file has the codename of "Kerr". Thumpies is not available for iOS 11+ due to the fact that the game is 32-bit and iOS 11+ no longer supports 32-bit apps.FurFacE was the first ever thumpie made.TawooO looks similar to Tweedle, but without wings.The ChoMPh Thumpie looks similar to Rare T-Rox, due to its mouth and color.BooO's face also looks very similar to Mount Knottshurr and to a lesser extent, Mountain Morsel.The Thumpie BooO's coloring seems to resemble Whisp, but that may be a coincidence.The other has flutes sticking out of it resembling Reedling, named FwoOT. One has a paper bag that looks like Rare Punkleton's over its face, named BuTter. In the game on the right side of the stage select screen, there are two unplayable thumpies.The Thumpies main menu music is the same as that of the mini-game of the MSM spin-off game My Mammott.The only Thumpie whose name doesn't follow this format is Gahwg.This may be to demonstrate how wildly active the Thumpies are. The Thumpies names and the song names given in the game have deliberate random capitalization (CamelCase).Some examples are: Dooiah ( Toe Jammer), Kalnood ( Scaratar), Rddahtoot ( Reedling), Yababa ( Potbelly), Fædd ( Furcorn), Phad & Leens ( Rare Thumpies), Dooen & Day ( Rare Thumpies), Gobah ( Maw), Thethoor ( Yawstrich and Epic Scups), Aetheri-awl ( Ghazt), Ogrend ( Drumpler), Fur & Noob ( Thumpies), Furface & Noobie ( Thumpies), Rawt & Reecess ( Rare Thumpies), RhooTz and IziT ( Epic Thumpies), Skwee ( Scups), Mosh N Pitt ( Thumpies), Fwoot ( Reedling) and Izit ( Reedling and Rare Mammott) Other Monsters in MSM also reference Thumpies' Songs and Thumpie names through their nicknames. sTeelnuTs is steel nuts but without a space.ÆthuRi-AwL is a corruption of ethereal, due to the song being very ghostly and ethereal.PhAD-or-LeEns is a combination of Fat Orleans and Fat or Lean, due to the fat and lurching brass bass line.According to Christopher Elliot, it's fitting because of the warm, happy, childhood-like feel of the song. The song dripPLe basS is a combination of triple bass, dribble, and drip.Gahwg, if pronounced "Jawj," could be a reference to the titular shark from Jaws.Kal's name could've possibly came from Kalon, the name of the developer who voiced it.chomph comes from the word "chomp", referring to its mechanical jaw."Chuckles the Clown" was a minor character on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The word "yuck" has been used to refer to a joke ("a big yuck"), and to laughing at a joke. Yuckles is a corruption of "chuckles", due to its clown-like appearance.macE is quite self-explanatory (from the word "mace", as its head resembles a spike mace).Or it could possibly be referring to Anya Jenkins. Anyanka is simply Anyanka, which was a popular name when this game was made.Chesch is a corruption of Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland.Gooie is from the onomatopoeia of a baby "goo goo ga ga", and possibly also "gooey".
