Go Pulseman! Go out and zap to the extreme!
I'm going to disappoint some people but I really didn't care for Pulseman. I mean, the graphics, art direction and music are all top notch but the actual level design just can't keep up, even feeling like an afterthought. Sometimes the levels are way too barren, sometimes they are way too cramped, everything just feels very basic and block-like in design with very little actual challenge. As something to look at, its stellar, but the reality is gameplay wise, it's a pretty basic platform game. It does feel like, at least to me, that Pulseman is 100% carried on its aesthetics, developer legacy, and lack of real release outside Japan. Unfortunately average.
