FWIW, I didn't recognise the guy at the beginning, and the character at the

I particularly liked when he climbed into the hole he had made.

Mostly references to old NES games: Contra, Metroid, Super Mario Bros and
Tetris, sure...

Well, I was trying to avoid spoilers, but I meant the first hole, labeled
"Next".

"Him" being the protagonist of the game which appears in the video.
