Dr. Reflex is a major antagonist in Baldi's Basics Plus.
Like the rest of the original cast, he is voiced by the game's creator, Micah "Mystman12" McGonigal.
Appearance[]
Dr. Reflex appears as a poorly clay-modeled humanoid character that resembles a rag doll with brown hair styled as a ponytail, a long upper jaw that extends into a large nose, four fingers on each hand, realistic blue eyes and a red-lipped mouth with two buck teeth in front of it, similar to that of cartoon rabbits. He wears a white doctor's coat with black buttons, a gray stethoscope, black pants, light blue gloves, and brown shoes.
When he is enraged, he grabs a comically large reflex hammer (which appears to be a yellow percussion hammer with a gray handle) and holds it above his head with both of his hands. The reverb in his voice is amped up drastically while he is in this state, giving a far creepier undertone to his voice. He also gets an orange tint.
Personality[]
Dr. Reflex is eager to do his job as he will run toward the Protagonist when he see him in order to initiate a reflex test. He gets upset when the Protagonist messes up the test, but is quite encouraging to him and wants him to try again. When his reflex test is interrupted for any reason, he will turn aggressive and attempt to hunt him down with a percussion hammer.
Biography[]
Origin[]
Like Baldi, before he's added to Baldi's Basics Plus, Dr. Reflex first appeared in one of the comics of Mystman12's old comic strip series Baldimore, where he reflex tested Baldi's knee, resulting in him getting an unintentional kick to the balls by the latter.
Role[]
Dr. Reflex is the school doctor of Here School (specifically in the Super Schoolhouse). Dr. Reflex first appears on the second floor and he will walk around the surrounding hall area. When he meets the Protagonist, he will chase after him and then start a full-on reflex test.
In Dr. Reflex's reflex test, the Protagonist will automatically turn to Dr. Reflex and he will wait a few seconds, then open his hands; one hand contains a circle and the other contains an X. To pass his reflex test and continue progressing, the Protagonist will need to click on the correct hand (the one with the circle) quickly enough, specifically within less than a second, hence his catchphrase he shouts before starting. When the player clicks on the correct hand without failure, the Protagonist will earn 25 You Thought Points. However, Dr. Reflex will feel unhappy with the Protagonist if he is too slow or click the wrong hand (the one with the X), starting the challenge all over until he wins.
If the player simply walks away during Dr. Reflex test, or even gets disrupted by any characters or specific items, he will get angry, wait two seconds, and head to his clinic to grab a giant percussion hammer and start hunting the player down. He will use it to squish any character (except for Chalkles) that he comes in contact with. The effect will last for 30 seconds. Like Baldi, Dr. Reflex is able to hear any and all noises that would normally alert Baldi, and likewise, using either the tape player or the pay phone will make him deaf for 30 seconds. However, unlike Baldi, there is no head indicator that shows whether Dr. Reflex heard a noise or not.
While being squished, characters' interaction will be limited. For example, the Protagonist will not be able to interact with some objects (such as buttons, notebooks and blue lockers) and other characters will not be able to interact with the player, such as Baldi, who will not be able to catch the player while squished. When the player is squished, their camera will snap towards Dr. Reflex, similar to the situation when he plays a reflex test. After 30 seconds, squished characters will revert back to normal and interact normally again. Unlike other characters who can see the player from all angles, Dr. Reflex will only be able to see the Protagonist as long as he was in front of him or in his peripheral vision.
Trivia[]
- Dr. Reflex is the first and only character to be made out of clay.
- Dr. Reflex's hammer was revealed on Mystman12's Instagram post, where he explains that Dr. Reflex's model could not hold the reflex hammer by itself, so he had to rig up a support system for it.
- In a Kickstarter post, his sprites were revealed. However, they were confirmed to be placeholders, as they were static. They were changed upon version 0.4's release.
- Dr. Reflex's model took roughly 60 hours to be built, several nights to be photographed, and a week to be fully digitized and edited.
- Mystman12 confirmed that Dr. Reflex does not possess a medical license.
- Dr. Reflex appears to be left-handed, as he is seen holding his percussion hammer in his left hand in many images, including promotional images for his plushie, as well as in the original comic.
- Dr. Reflex has the most sprites out of any character in the series so far, being a grand total of 313 sprites. This is due to him having a variant of each of his animations for each sprite rotation.
- Like Mrs. Pomp, Dr. Reflex's description in the Principal's office says that he diagnoses students, but the Protagonist is the only student who is targeted for this.
- However, other characters are not exempt from Dr. Reflex's wrath, as they are also squashed by his hammer, except for Chalkles.
