DO NOT PLAY THIS WITH 4 PEOPLE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
it just consists of constantly leaving your friends behind and having them wait 3 seconds so they can respawn and then immediately get left behind again. we got softlocked like 4 times. the final boss kills players 3 and 4 as soon as the final phase starts. during the character specific acts ONLY PLAYER 1 IS ALLOWED TO PLAY.
this is not a 4 player game. this is a 1 player game disguised as a 4 player game.
also the bosses are horrendous, jesus. it's like they saw pyribbit from kirby triple deluxe and went "yeah let's make that every boss." playing trip's story was just a slog and the fact that HALF THE GAME DOESN'T EVEN HAVE MULTIPLAYER is just... why? why would you even advertise the game as multiplayer? it just feels more like an afterthought. if there's a single phrase i can attribute to this game, it's "what's the point?"

THIS GAME IS STILL PLAYABLE DUE TO FLASHPOINT ARCHIVE, WHICH CAN BE DOWNLOADED HERE.
this game is absolutely insane for like the 5 minutes it's intended to last. i CANNOT imagine ANYONE beating this the way it's intended - on a smartphone - just due to the sheer amount of things that are on screen at once. you're not supposed to be able to play it on a computer's browser, but you could if you just typed in the url for the game itself. it had keyboard support, for some reason. i only beat it because i bound the keyboard controls to a controller. you have to rapidly switch between the 4 idols' weapons while keeping track of the shared weapon energy, which you HAVE to use perfectly, lest you want to restart the entire thing. oh, that's right, i forgot to mention - because the game is synchronized to music, if you die at any point, you restart from the very beginning. i would make this a major complaint, but the music is kickass, so it balances out. it's also just plain fun, the movement is super fun and you can shoot with the mega buster at the speed of light if you mash fast enough. it is a tense, ball-busting game that exists solely to promote an idol group. it's like if the hardest mario game was made by mcdonalds. this game is absolutely psychotic and stupid and i want everyone to play it at least once. Also all of the MM2 bosses being old and useless is awesome

this game is an excellent example of psychological torture. sometimes the levels are 5 hours long with secrets near impossible to find. sometimes they're 2 seconds long and all of the secrets are in one spot. when rayman beats a boss he dances over their mangled corpse and i wish i could do the same to him
