Solatorobo: Red the Hunter (NDS) (2011) 1/10 You've probably noticed that I love the look of this gorgeous game, though I haven't even touched upon all the cool ingame cutscenes and boss fights since that would take me like a week to capture, so here's lots of colorful locales, hope you enjoy! 🙌

A beautiful grand adventure and a spiritual successor to Tail Concerto, set in the Shepherd Republic, made out of multiple sky islands scattered around a large area, populated by anthropomorphic dogs and cats, called Caninu and Felineko respectively, talking French and having adorable names like Chocolat Gelato.

We follow the exploits of Red Savarin, a Hunter, doing odd jobs and quests, accompanied by the aforementioned Chocolat Gelato, his adoptive sister as they fly the airship Asmodeus, going on a mission to get some stolen documents and get thrust into an epic adventure.

Here we have Red piloting his trusty Dahak mech, a bipedal robot with long dangly arms like the Robot Troopers from Laputa: Castle in the Sky with an open seat so the pilot is fully visible and exposed, like here with Red running around the white sky docks of Airedale, a beautiful sky island full of small houses built upon a central hill, full of trees, floating ships and birds flying over.

It would be an understatement to call this game gorgeous, it's one of the most beautiful games on the Nintendo DS system, with a beautiful anime opening by studio Madhouse and designs, visuals and story worthy of the best PS1 RPGs, it's just a joyful experience with lots of colorful characters and an epic story, so give it a shot if you haven't played it!

The fungal forest of Vizsla, a sky island covered in "fungi dandelions", large yellow shrooms as a curvy wooden bridge leads Red to a giant Ladyshroom, a friendly red ladybug creature.

Deep orange skies glowing over the mishmash of metal parts and flimsy stairs on the floating island of Basset, made out of wrecked airships and other machines, with birds flying under the tall metal pillars barely holding the walkways together.

The capital city of Pharaoh, one of those typical quaint cities that show what Japanese people think the entirety of Europe looks like, with clock towers, train stations and residential buildings rising around a long cobblestone path with staircases leading downward, populated by lots of puppydog people, all curiously 2D drawn in wonderful pixel art fashion while Red in his mech is fully 3D.
