Has anybody ever played this? It's a little-known platform game from everybody's favorite cult developer Treasure, who also made games like Radiant Silvergun, Ikaruga, Gunstar Heroes, and so on.

The trick to the game is that your character has two colors: red and blue. The enemies also come in two varieties: cute red enemies and nasty blue ones. When you're facing in one direction, you're "blue" and you can can kill the "red" enemies. When you're facing in the other direction you're "red" and can kill the "blue" enemies. It leads to some really interesting gameplay. Very unique and fun!

My friend let me play his Saturn version this past weekend. I bought two copies of the PS1 version for $5 the other day although I haven't played them yet- I hope it's as good as the Saturn version even though the PS1 is a lot weaker for 2-D games.

I remember seeing it. I think. It was like 9.99 at the store though and my friend told me not to get it. So i got another ps2 controller ^_^;; which broke shortly after ._. It looked like bubble bobble on the back of the box tho.

I got it for $5 off of Amazon.com. It's hard, but kicks much ass.

I've played the ps1 version. It was okay. I'd only finished the first three endings before I gave up.

Waaaaagh, you forgot Alien Soldier in your list of Treasure games! It's like Gunstar Heroes, only more badass! It even has a reference back to Gunstar Heroes, there's a boss named Seven Force. :D
