theres really no other action rpg like it . theres 2 art
styles per screen. you as the player aren't actually a part
of the game, the 'professor' communicates with you from the
top screen - telling you what to do to help out the main
character, who is busy on the bottom screen.

the game is totally strange. alot of it just makes no sense.
blend of wiliam burroughs and production i.g.'s FLCL. there
are all kinds of strange nuances in gameplay and in
cutscenes that do not make any sense and are up to your
interpretation (i think, unless at the end everything will
be made clear)

there are also some weird parts of the game that literally
make me stop and say, "ok, what just happened" just weird
storytelling devices that don't make sense while making
complete sense. its awesome

if youre into Team Doyobi you'll dig the game, too. i dont
really know why. its that feeling you get when youre wanting
to be a kid again but the thought gets wound up with
memories of old-school technology and kind of looks like
the marriage of a double helix and a commodore 64, or a game
catridge, and japan.

if you have a DS, buy this game!!!!!!!!!! its important

Got this a couple days ago and haven't played it yet. I got
Meteos at the same time and made the mistake of trying it
first.

played it and loved it though it was a bit short for an RPG.
however, i didn't do any of the wi-fi things either.

if you like contact, you should check out other games by
Suda 51 and Grasshopper Studios. Killer7 and No More Heroes
are great examples. Supposedly they're making a sequel for
Contact as we speak.

The ending was my fave part, which i won't spoil for anyone.
Oh, and the arcade machines levels in the mall. Classic.
