Alpha Dream’s relentlessly charming animations and sprite work is what saves this game from being, well, bad. The gimmicks were getting tiresome by the end game. Speaking of the end game, holy wow, it’s… not great. It ruined all the remaining good will I had at that point.

The boss gimmicks were extremely frustrating, especially by the end. I was tilting during the final boss.

The story itself meandered a lot. For awhile? I forgot about the Colbalt Star as that stopped being a focus for quite some time. Like ????

The game is absolutely gorgeous but I didn’t fix the issues I had. I played this as a teen and dropped it, probably been 15+ years since I played it. I figured, since I have more patience for janky nonsense, I’d enjoy it more. Some stuff was just too much.
