Certain lights, such as the ones found on the left side of the RED spawn in Sawmill, may be turned on or have their brightness increased. Many surfaces found in the game world are retextured into brightly-colored pink or blue materials that represent either the RED or BLU team.

In both the real world and in Pyroland, the Pyro keeps an air of carefree, happy-go-lucky cheerfulness.

They gleefully coo and giggle at Pyro's seemingly-innocent antics, whereas they are actually being brutally hunted and killed in the real world - for example, in Pyroland, the Pyro blows bubbles at a baby Scout, which is humored by their actions the real Scout is actually being shot in the face with a Scorch Shot flare at point blank. Members of the BLU team are seen as little winged babies, or cherubs, having their normal heads on chubby diapered bodies. The 1965 song "Do You Believe In Magic" by The Lovin' Spoonful plays in the background.

Instead of run-down desert towns or secret spy bases, Pyroland appears as an extremely cartoonish pastel-colored landscape including big flowery meadows, a bright blue sky with giant, pudgy kittens, puppies, and hamsters floating around, giant lollipops and candy sprouting out of the ground, and a little town full of candy shops and party decorations. As seen in Meet the Pyro, Pyroland is a stark contrast to the usual aesthetics of Team Fortress 2.
