Onion and everything they've been affiliated with in microcosm, down to being an expanded version of a side mode in Moon. The bones of something truly excellent that stands along the best of their work is here, but there's no meat for me to sink my teeth into beyond getting the highest score you can, and I don't think this game is all that great at continuous grinding for that typa thing. Still, I think worth a playthru to the true ending to get a tantalizing whiff of that Oniony goodness. It's been years since I played Dandy Dungeon, but from what I remember I'd show that to someone fully unaware of the pedigree of these guys before this.
