I finally got myself an ISO and checked this game out. It's pretty intriguing. Right off the bat, I have to give props to them for getting a real translator to do the intro. Granted, there are a couple of typos in there, but this was obviously not written by whichever Japanese staff member got good grades in English class in high school.

_joshuaTurbo sent me this as his official "blurb" so check it out!

I have the game but haven't really played it.  Has nice tunes that I assume are by someone within T's Music.  That's about all I can say on the matter.

Cool video Josh! Great idea for a video series, thought you showcased this game pretty well. I'll keep an eye out for this one if I find it cheap

I think I picked it up for around $5, so yeah - it's totally worth it.  I've been screwing around with it for a few months now, finally starting to get a hang of it.

DOUBLE POSTER!!

You should spend a couple hours with this over the weekend.  It really is pretty neato!!
