Ok, look, I spent actual effort making this, unlike something in the lines of "lol 4chan."
Also, is there anyone who does not have the ROM of this?
I was listening to Acid Mothers Temple in a dream. You could imagine what that was like. I'm listening to Ghost right now. It's giving me Bark Psychosis vibes - compare Fukegia with 400 Winters or Big Shot. Maybe it's because I was introduced to Hypnotic Underworld and Codename:Dustsucker at around the same time. I upped the Blue album instead, because Amara got the album I've been pressuring him to get.
Anyway, now that we've resurrected all the continents in their hideously misshapen forms, let's go there.

More importantly, why does it look like this? It looks more like Mars than South America does right now. Maybe someone else resurrected the humans already.
Your character has this to say. "What a desolate world. Barren land, stale air. No life could exist here. Resurrect THIS? Gramps sure expects a lot."

For some reason, you just came out of a cave.
You're supposed to go to the south. However, you can be a troublemaker and stray off the intended path.

Oh...

Ooh, bubbling tar.

You're supposed to go in here. Floaty Blue Lights will sell you some rings and bulbs. Since you can't heal automatically, you need them.

Poison is bad.

You'll stumble upon this place eventually.

Talk to the Happy (well, probably not, but whatever) Flower, and it tells you that those leaves over there make great flippers. Gee, you think? Then he says that you ask silly questions to Mr. Fish Stick behind your back. Jerk.

If you've ever tried to go into the boss room, you'll get gassed and wake up outside, because I guess the boss is nice enough to just kick you out until you stand a fighting chance against it. That's not a very good idea. Didn't you read the Evil Overlord Handbook? You have a clear advantage, Mr. Parasite, and you're going to let guy with too much hair gel and a lily defeat you?

You can level up here.

Dandelion! I guess that was some attention to detail, as the other flowers are pollinated by animals, and they're not around yet. Except the wind isn't around according to some birds you meet later. Maybe it's just broken, though, and you have to throw rocks at it to fix it.

Maybe your character sees it and blows on it.


So, why does the sky change color? Wouldn't it still be blue when the plants aren't around? Anyway, you can see flat trees. All of that from dandelion seeds!

The land changes too.

Venus Fly Traps are the equivalent of dogs here, but there is one that actually talks to you a bit later.

Talk to those things and a happy fruit pops out. You can eat it. I hope you enjoyed that, you sick bastard. Go away, I hate you. I hope you get a death curse, and not have any holy waters to cure it.

That one sings for you, despite you eating its companion.

Which isn't that bad, as it only lasts a few seconds.

Grecliff has pretty sunsets, along with rogue ninja pillbug gnomes.

Yes, you can get pooped on. It only hurts a little and you don't turn into Mr. Hyde. The biggest annoyance here is falling on the cliff.

The PyroRing, despite all the cool pyrotechnics, did not appear to do much damage. It's useful on large groups of enemies, though.

Birds!

Climb up the waterfall. Use Turbo. That's important.

The Kingbird looks depressed and says something about how there's no wind. Go to Windvale. Throw the rocks into a pit. There are no monsters, no treasures, nothing. That was pointless. You spend more time flying there because those damn birds like to circle around the landing point and take you on a useless adventure.

This gull offers to take you back to
Also, dam. Dam? DAM!
Talk to the bird who offers to take you to Safarium, go there, fly across the Atlantic, circle around about six times, and find... nothing. Better check out Zue.

Find the lost souls and go here. When you get four, it rains, the lakes fill up really fast, and any stuff you left in the lakebeds is lost.

Yes, you're supposed to get down on all fours and eat the grass!

I'll agree on that.

The last Rain Altar has this guy. It shoots unholy fire at you (you can tell it's unholy because it's lime green), and throws its claws around.
Better use that GrassPin.

Psychedelic Tree!

That's me using the BlizzardRing or BlizzRing or something. Again, no visible effect, but this guy was a pushover anyway. I got lost a few times and resorted to beating up frogs and lizards.

But don't birds have these cells too?

Lion King, anyone?

This guy is King Neo. I guess they meant to say Leo. His son, Liem, never returned from the test that all lions have to take. Neo is too busy looking at himself in the pond when it's reflective and grooming himself, so he sends you to get him.

Liem is SLOW. He has the nerve to call you slow, but that's only because you're climbing walls. Otherwise, he just walks along like he's going to get his mail, and occasionally gets lost. I'm not sure what happens when you lose him, but I'd imagine it involves going back to the beginning and talking to him. And losing him could involve jump-attacking to hit the fire monsters, and going into the next screen before Liem says something about how this is fun.

This part's a pain. You have to go really slowly so that Leim doesn't fall.
Neo orders his rhinos to make a bridge, and remain there for the rest of the game.
Well, we need to resurrect humanity.

Which apparently originated in Nepal.

Most of the time, they're foes.

Did I mention that Yomi is called Fluffy in the German version?
Even if I did, that is too awesome. So awesome, in fact, that the translators thought that an Allied power was unworthy of something that cool.

Gee, thanks, Professor Science. If I needed to know that about a hot spring, I'd open a textbook.

Nice view.

Rakshasa taunts! Now you are confused. It messes up your sense of direction. Just wander about aimlessly until it wears off. And learn Chinese while you're at it!


How pragmatic of you.

And you ate the Happy Fruit. So don't complain about eating a mountain goat that is already dead when you're starving.


Hmm. That's some intriguing explanation.

This guy transforms. First, he's a yeti and he blows you around and makes you crash into ice crystals. Then he becomes a Cadet and you have to reflect his attacks, and that has nothing to do with Ganon whatsoever, so SHUT UP. Then he moves around and turns into a bunch of bats when you attack him. He's dead a few pokes later. Now you've resurrected humanity.
See you in Chapter IV.
