this game has some pretty neat setpieces, a really neat interplay of stylish sci-fi and silly absurdism, and it's hard not to be at least a little charmed by the story and characters, but as far as gameplay goes i can't say i had a whole lot of fun. felt my characters took up too big of a portion of the screen, and with stuff coming at me from all sides, too often did it feel like stuff was just hitting me without me being able to register what's going on. it's also a little bit tough on the eyes at some points with how intense and hard to parse certain backgrounds are. i'd still recommend it, though, partially because others seem to like this a whole lot than me, and because the plot is pretty endearing to follow. if you like 80's anime OVAs and the sega genesis, you are pretty much the target audience.
