Super Bonk is like a fever dream

This game is like a fever dream.
There's this candy. If I eat one candy, I grow very large. If I eat the other candy, I grow very small. If I press the Y button while small, tiny Bonk will yell "RAGE!" at enemies (the letters of "RAGE!" can also be stood on, as if i was a floating platform). If I do it while big.... Bonk's mother f-ing head detaches from his body and rolls around.
It also seems to be impossible to die in this game. I was on a bridge level and I missed a jump. I expected to die, but instead it loaded a new level under the bridge where there was water. In the water there were fish swimming around and one of them ate me. Instead of killing me, again, it loads a new level, inside of the fish.
Falling off the bridge was completely optional and so was getting eaten.Then I get out of the fish (I exit via his poop-chute) and a giant brick wall with eyes smashes me, which for some unexplained reason, turns me in to a crab!
Get the right combination of power-ups and you transform in to a bizarre monstrosity best described as a psychotic Bonk wearing a Godzilla costume.
Not a single lick of it makes any sense whatsoever. I don't think I've ever played any game that is quite as completely random and nonsensical as Super Bonk. Sadly, the way I hear it, none of the other Bonk games are like this at all - most of them are generic, boring, simplistic platformers. But not Super Bonk! Super Bonk is out of it's mind, and as a result, is totally freakin' awesome.
