DAMN. This game is the shit. It's like this; meteos fall from the sky and collect on the ground, and you use the DS' touch screen and stylus to line three+ up horizontally or vertically, and then they turn in to rockets, propelling every meteos above them up. When they hit the top of the screen, they're sent to the opposing planet(s). But sometimes they don't go all the way up, and then they slowly fall back you have to match up more to send from there, or get a match below it and have the second blast send it up with it. Your planet explodes if you have a vertical line of meteos stretching from the ground to the sky for too long. There's also a crazy awesome story (really now, crazy awesome) but it doesn't matter. There's also a bunch of other intricacies I didn't mention but which are awesome. BUY IT NOW (and a DS if you don't have one)

Funny thing is this game is the loudest out of my collection of games. With the volume halfway, the sound still booms an entire room. Good work with that.

This game is the best puzzle game I have ever played. Excellent music, great gameplay, lots of things to unlock.

Yeah, this game is stuck in my DS for a while... it is just so good...

Oh shit, the endings are so fucked up, it's awesome

It has some of the best music, too. The atmospheric music on Luna=Luna is awesome. And Jeljel? When you consider that its music set is named House of Horrors, and that in Mission Based Star Trip it's labeled as a Stray Planet, you know fucked up shit is happening there. What a great game.

Picked this game up on Sunday, and I wasn't sorry about getting it at all It's occupied pretty much all the time I've played on my DS in the past while, and it should be pretty obvious that I like it.

The volume level when it's all the way up on the DS is the only thing I can think of to complain about though It has to be the only game I have that can give me a headache by playing it at full volume

Anyways, here are my impressions of it so far: the graphics look especially good, when you consider that you're playing the game on a handheld console. The variation between the meteos, depending on which planet you're playing as is a nice touch, but I find some of them to give trouble distinguishing between similarly colored blocks Overall though, they do look quite nice.

The sounds, as I said before, are annoyingly loud on full volume, but that's easily remedied I find it neat how the sound effects that play when you line up three meteos are pretty much the music for the level. Sure, there's the background sound, but some can get repetitive awfully fast.

The controls / gameplay are pretty good as well. I found it like trying to play Tetris Attack, except being able to move blocks vertically, instead of horizontally. The cursor moves pretty slow if you're using the D-Pad instead of the stylus, which isn't too bad. It does come in handy in the credits though. Speaking of the credits, this is the first game I've seen that sort of thing in, and I like it (I'm referring to how they show the peoples' signatures).

The whole game itself is pretty short (I find it to be like either Super Smash Bros. game that way), but I've begun to wonder just how much stuff there is to unlock, either by fusing Meteos, or just completing other objectives.

As far as messed up endings go, the only one I've gotten as of right now had something to do with the various planets making a sport (a deadly one, as the game said) of launching meteos at each other. I want to see the one about the fork with my own two eyes.

Definitely a good game all around

Oh man. Which ending is that? I must see that for myself. The only good one I've seen is where it turns in to planet Meteo after blowing it up.

I believe it's either the fourth or fifth one on Split Path mode (Not Straight or Mission).

Oh yeah. I got it (it was the fifth from the top in Branch).

Spoiler:
Delivering the final blow to Meteo was proving difficult until the Meteos fused into a giant fork! Using all of its power, the Metamo Ark cut up the well-done Meteos like a delicious steak. Utter victory is ours! Probably.

Meteos is awesome. My favorite planet is Oleana. I love jellyfish! The music is awesome, too. It's like, making music while you destroy worlds.

The tons of different endings are cool, too. Has anyone seen...
Spoiler:
the one where Meteos is destroyed, but all the pieces turn into Meteos themselves and Metamo Arks from every planet join you for some kind of final battle? (doesn't happen, though )


I'd definately rate this game a 10.5/10.

Edit: By the way, how is my experimental new BG?

I got an ending having to do with a "Cosmic Fork" last night It was the third one up from the bottom in split path mode, so it seems it's the same as what you were getting I really want to see what the topmost ending is in mission mode, but I always fail on the level where you have to clear 50 meteos at once

I still haven't managed to get through the 1000 Meteos war either. I can get up to 800 or so, but no further. I need to fuse a planet that makes the meteos pretty much vanish off the screen, instead of flying up and off the top. I think Hevendor does that, but I can't fuse it yet

I also now have the chance to fuse Meteo, but I don't have that many meteos to use Especially seeing as you need 5 time and soul blocks. At least they're fusable, under the "Rare Metals" category.

Now, here's a question for any of you that have played in Deluge mode yet: what's your highest number of meteos you've launched? For me, it'd be a measly (in my opinion) 500 something.

As for your post, Peardian (I typed "Pearfish" at first ), I'm pretty sure I've seen that ending. Does it say something near the end about how there's an infinite number of Metamo Arks for an infinite number of foes, and about how the battle for the universe it about to begin? If so, then yes, I've seen it

Your new background looks pretty nice as well. I thought I recognized the things that were on it, then read your post, and found out that I did indeed know where they were from. I think it looks quite nice

Multi is the hardest. I can do it, but I just can't do some of the planets. Sometimes if the planet is bad, I lose purposly for the better planet in that set. It works...

This is ridiculous. I cannot do poor enough on Multi to get the bottom ending, and I cannot do good enough to get the top ending. Argh? The top ending is just I don't know, and the bottom ending... The only level that leads to it is fairly difficult, so I can't just sit back and watch myself fail the mission and then start doing stuff to pull off a victory, because I get swamped if I don't do stuff, but if I *do* do stuff, the other guy loses long before the mission would fail...

Also I do so bad at Straight that my Multi score is better. That's depressing.

Edit: I finally got around to seriously doing Deluge, and not just quitting after awhile. I did Firim, and then Freaze. Scores were edited in to my scores post.

I actually did all the endings in Branch mode and as a result, I can now unlock Meteo. Neat, but it costs a lot... for a planet I could care less about.

I have already unlocked the greatest planet ever anyway: Gravitas.

Deluge Score for Gravitas: 63600

I did higher for Brabbit, though... at 96570. I still don't know how... maybe because of the many re-launches I kept doing...

Gravitas is the best though. I don't know why, but I like it a lot better than any other planet. Must be because of the way it is... eh. I am weird like that...

Gravitas is worse than Hevendor.

And my favorite planet is Firim. The loose physics plus the ease of clearing the screen is good in and of itself, but tied to it's awesome music... It just wins at everything.
