yamamanamaI was going to do something called Succor Midst Sorrow in the Livejournal (which is rather dead right now), featuring a summary of events in Yama, in Love (blah blah blah love blah blah blah wondering if it's possible to make Kristi angry blah blah blah pool blah blah blah best new member awards blah) along with some musings (and speaking of Muse, in two months, you will be able to hear the five least favorite bands’ of a Muse fan’s stuff! Uh, maybe. Unless they’re really bad. And I mean bad. Moon thinks it would have Especially Likely Sloth in it) on other things that relate to the title. Then other things happened, and some of the things I was planning to say would look rather stupid now and not earn anyone any brownie points.
Tiang liked her CDs. That's always good.
So... instead.
The Long-Awaited Psycho Dream entry.
Remember how I made that mini-writeup for the game? Well, those of you who paid attention (read: none of you) should have this by now. If not, just ask. Anyway, you can play as a dominatrix or a Renaissance swordsman. I picked the dominatrix. However, if you’re really into sadomasochism, you can play Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Or Bubba ‘n’ Stix. But I don’t have those anymore. Anyway, I'll admit, this does come across as merely rehashing the mini-writeup. But there are pictures for you to look at.
You start out in a city, on a building which is either being renovated or half-constructed before the monsters, currently shown as that cute little pink and green amoeba thing, attacked. I don’t know.
Ride the scaffolding as flying things attack and damage the building even more.
Things get much easier when you become a seraphic bondage mistress. You shoot six balls of light rather than using your whip or claws.
Go into that rather suggestive thing...
And fight your way through the office building. Yeah, I know, the level is bland.
Crawly things!
And reach the boss, a ghostly tumorous blob of ectoplasm with flailing arms that can come out of the screens. If you get hit, you lose your wings and have to start again with just your whip.
Yeah. The levels are inexplicably called tracks. That’s not Maria, as far as I can tell.
Sewer. Or maybe a flooded disused part of subway. Either way, BLAND.
What the hell is that? Oh, well, you know you don't have your heart fully in it when you can't think of anything to say on this.
Here’s a train. Sometimes, they’re covered in amoebae, and you have to fight them.
Worms. There’s not much I can say about them.
Here are the famed overgrown fetuses in their amnions. I neglected to take a screenshot of them running around or exploding and flinging their heads off. This shows you that even with unimpressive level design, you can still count on the monsters to be wonderfully bizarre.
The bat made out of blue-flavored (no, really, what the hell is it supposed to be, anyway?) jello with an extend-o head taking my wings from me because I was busy taking a screenshot. It’s not that hard.
Here’s where the game takes on the quality of a horrible nightmare brought on by too much oxidized penne a la pesto and Acid Mothers Temple. Just target the amoeba dispensers, teleport to the next section, and do it again a few times. The level is rather boring, but it’s cool-looking.
For some reason, you fight the boss here instead. Hey, is that Sayaka in that chrysalis? Let’s break her out!
AIEEEEEEE! Admittedly, I thought she transmorgified into the moth, since the screenshots on Bogleech’s page make it look like the fuzz on its body is hair and the tail things on the wings were legs and, well, I don’t know what the eyes were. The feelers turn colorful and then shoot a blast of lightning. That’s it. Just make sure you have the wings and you’ll do fine.
You end up in a park with cherry trees in the middle of a wavering city. Fight lots of robots and plants that come out of the ground that just happen to be where you fall, causing you to lose your wings.
Well, plant worms.
The boss is a cicada. Break it out of its chrysalis to fight it. It charges at you and shoots fire.
Just don’t lose the wings. You need them here. Here’s one of those levels where you can’t stop moving. The boss is a jellyfish. You still run, but it doesn’t really matter. I guess if you don’t have the wings because you got hit during one of the cheap-ass enemy group attacks, its tough to deal with. It shoots poisonous bubbles at you.
Then you end up in ... a cave? Well, that’s what happens when you lose your wings. The music is rather waltzy, setting the scene for a romp through Hell.
Then you go outside, and there are weird mountains in the background.
Then it takes on Life Force vibes. Those brain cross H.R. Giger ripoffs are the only enemies here, and they just fly around and CEREBELLUM you. Mostly, it’s just avoiding the falling rocks, the tusks that arise from the purple organic goop, the prominences (Yes, prominences. Just like in Life Force), and whipping your way through veinous crap.
Eventually, you go inside the castle, and there’s a parade outside. With neon snails. The final boss is a giant robot with Sayaka in its womb.
