I've been playing this a bit pre-release! It's REALLY interesting. It feels like halfway between playing a single one-shot tabletop RPG session, and the mythic Hero Quests from King of Dragon Pass, where you have to echo the values and messages of your culture's mythology to gain the god's blessings

New blog post time! This week's game is Lone Soldier, an early PS1 title that looks like a 3D run and gun, but is best played with as little running as possible. You could easily call this "Kusoge", but if you're willing to look past the presentation, some silly fun can be had: #blog #gaming

pang @birthbydrip.neocities.org · 24/08/2026
still positive on aspects of klonoa 2 (likari is a knockout puzzle concept and I can't wait to see how dream champ tournament expands on it) but the rest still falls flat for me. link to my review below!
first paragraph: Splitting the majority of the puzzle gameplay off to Moonlight Museum puts Lunatea’s Veil in a position to carry forward the original game’s action elements, but Lunatea’s Veil seems uninterested in reprising the quirks from the original. Where Door to Phantomile emphasized levels that curved in on themselves, obstacles that crossed between playable planes, and enemy variety, Lunatea’s Veil hews much closer to prototypical 2D platformer elements — featureless running and jumping within the plane. Basic checks on one’s ability to wield Klonoa’s enemy-based double-jump are absent when not contextualized by one of the few new gimmicks, such as with giant worms that appear out of walls to eat Klonoa unless fed prior with an enemy, which appear long past their expiration date late into the game. When these won’t suffice, a trite 3D snowboarding section fills the void. Oddly enough, this ends up highlighting the puzzles that dot each level; the proper platforming is only grist between them.
