One year after the month of Novtober, Billy goes to find Uncle Rico fat and extremely overweight. He says that he was in a bet that said if he couldn't get a picture of Billy thin, he had to eat 20 times his body weight. Billy then forces Uncle Rico to get on Super Treadmill and get thin again. The game ends by saying "END?".
Storyline[edit | edit source]

Interactive objects[edit | edit source]
Main article: Interactive Objects (Super Treadmill)
These are objects Billy can interact with.
- Sofas - They will bounce Billy when he lands on them.
- Enlarged Sofas - Will bounce Billy twice the height of a regular Sofa.
- Beds - Like Sofas, will bounce Billy.
- Bunk Beds - Like Enlarged Sofas, bounce Billy twice the height.
Pickups[edit | edit source]
- Blue Powershake - Gives Billy 200 extra points once picked up.
- Brown Powershake - Gives Billy 200 extra points once picked up.
Hazards[edit | edit source]
Main article: Hazards (Super Treadmill)
These will stun Billy for a short time.
- Cactuses - Brown cactuses in pots. They are small with smiley faces, and Billy will sometimes have to jump over gaps with them at the bottom.
- Candles - Dropped in pairs of 2. They are hard to avoid, and Billy will usually land on them.
- Dogs - Will run onto the screen from off-screen. They are hard to kill, since they are coming from the opposite direction Billy is running. If they catch up to Billy, they will grab Billy, and shake him around, holding him in one spot.
- Young Dogs - Young dogs that drop poop instead of biting Billy. The poop will stun Billy longer.
- Interferences - The parts of the screen will turn a light gray, and the level will slow down. This is good if the conveyor belt is moving fast. The screen will also sometimes go black with AV in the corner.
- Grills - These will burn Billy if he lands on it.
- Bombs - When dropped, they will explode not too soon later. When they explode, almost the entire screen is turned white. If Billy is right next to it, he will become stunned.
- Birds - They are dropped in a cage, but once the cage meets a platform, they fly out. These are introduced in Level 10 (St Burger's Day)

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- There is an easter egg that if the player presses "X" on their keyboard, things that fall from the sky will be blocks. Green blocks are platforms, orange means the block can be bounced on, yellow means that Billy can pass through the block and red indicates hazards.
The easter egg
- Uncle Rico breaks the fourth wall in the ending by mentioning the "last two cutscenes".
- Novtober, the month in this game, is a combination of October and November.
