There’s no doubt at all in my mind that deKay is going to love this game. I have just, while crossing a bridge, been accosted by a dancing fruit which ran up to me, yelled “A-splode!” and ran off while a huge explosion rocked the screen. Moments later, a gang of around thirty dancing fruits

At last! I’m on the fabled Nova, planet of Light, in the heart of the sun where, any day now, a giant worm is going to eat the sun and give birth to a new one. Or something. That’s if the rampaging hordes of carnivorous robots don’t destroy the universe first. Or the pirates. Or

At exactly 19 hours and 58 minutes into the game, a father and daughter were reunited at last and the final Millenium Gummy was all mine. So, without further ado, it’s back to Razen to see the dwarf engineers. It appears that they need to make my ship a bit more ethereal because I need

Earth Gummy GET! After a pretty long battle and a very poignant scene (in FMV no less) with the Stone Giant – accompanied by a rather awesome bit of synthy guitar soloing) the gummy is mine. I’ve now been summoned back to Puffoon, conveniently enough, where the final gummy awaits. This game is really strange

Well, Wood Gummy GET! and Space Police boss GOT! So, without further ado it was off to Erd where, against all the odds, the plot has taken a rather surprising turn in a sinister direction. It appears that everything isn’t as random as it seemed and there’s a much broader story-arc been going on under

Right. So, I stormed an incredibly difficult to navigate pyramid (in which I kept getting lost cos I’m a bit thick, me) and kicked the bottom of the boss, so I now have two of the required millenium gummies. I promptly headed off to Gren where the chief’s daughter is going a bit nuts and

Well that was kinda half-expected. Technically, Magical Starsign has just jumped the shark. At about 12 hours in I thought “hang on – there can’t be much to go now because the story is almost done. But I’ve only just got a full team.” All of a sudden, I have a big long contrived “pad

Many new developments – I ganked the big towery things that were giving me problems and thwarted a pirate plot before being given a not-very-subtle hint from a mystic called Twigadamas. Who is, well, a floating stick. Some of the humour in Magical Starsign is pretty obvious (like the way Twigadamas’ name caption keeps changing

What have I been doing? Well, loads as it happens. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather so have taken the opportunity to have a couple of hours on the DS. With Magical Starsign being completely stylus driven, it means I can play it one handed with the DS resting on a surface which

Just spotted this story on UK resistance – apparently, Game are so desperate to sell at least one PS3 on launch day that they’re, well, making things up. Read for yourself: Game’s mind-control experiments.
