I happened to come across this game on my DS when trying out random games. I had heard of if, but I had never tried it before. I happened to be able to pick this game out of a lot and here it is. This game reminds me a lot of Adventure Island, and righfully so since it's made by the same company.
Basically all you do is run around a shto stuff without getting hit. There's power-ups to get by shooting the flowers in this first stage. What I think is silly is that the power-ups, whether they're the flower or the item it turns into (such as that heart you see above), it blocks your bullets! So if there's an enemy slightly above the power-up you're kind of screwed since you can't shoot it until you get the power-up and getting the power-up will probably cause you to get hit!
You start with puny bullets, then work your way up to a tomahawk, boomerang, and a heat sinking flame. There may be more after that, but I haven't gotten that far. Actually, I haven't even passed the first stage!
(For some reason I cannot get this stupid photo to center, no matter what I do)
There's these lilly pads that you jump on, but it's very hard to do without dying. That's what always gets me. There's a section that you have to keep jumping across them, but your character is constantly moving. You can't stand still to gather your wits, so you have to pay close attention to what you're doing or else you'll fall into the instant death of the water.
I'd like to spend more time on this game in order to get further than the first stage! But alas, it is not near the top of my list of games that I'd like to complete. Eventually I'll get there.
