Oh man, where do I even begin? So, this game thing, Parasol Superstars or something, is coming out—digitally, like everything else these days, on September 16. They’re sticking it on a disc too with the guys over at Strictly Limited Games. So, why not dive into this madness?
Okay, two games in one, that’s what’s happening. Parasol Stars and Spica Adventure. Ever heard of ‘em? Me neither until now. But they’re legendary – or that’s what they say. Glittery nostalgia wrapped up in one chaotic package!
Parasol Stars. Yeah, it’s those bubble dragon dudes, Bub and Bob. Except now they’re humans? Because why not? Bubby and Bobby (yeah, they went for those names), swinging parasols around like nobody’s business. Blocking, stunning, projectile tossing—some kind of wild defense mechanism while hopping around planets, I guess.
Then there’s Spica Adventure. Listen to this: Nico, a girl in pink with—yep—a magical parasol (seriously, what’s with the parasols?), bouncing through space like it’s one long dreamy day trip. All happened in Japan only until now, so maybe that means it’s cool or maybe it’s just super niche, who knows. Toy-looking enemies everywhere. It’s chaotic sweetness on a cosmic scale.
Now hang on; there’s more! Features, they’ve got ‘em! Both games? Yep, full-on platformer madness. Parasol Stars comes at you with some shiny modern add-ons. Spica Adventure? Making its western move, finally hitting home consoles. Controller support, a couple of tweaks – modern whatnots. Oh, and you can team up locally in Parasol Stars, bring a friend and cause some mayhem.
But wait—there’s this Special Edition too (because of course). It has extras, think history book stuff and soundtrack bits, like a time capsule or whatever.
You wanna preorder, don’t ya? For PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, apparently. Click all over the place, explore that rabbit hole of retro revival if that’s your jam.
Anyway. That’s the scoop. More parachute… sorry, parasol… adventures than you probably knew existed. And hey, I didn’t even mention the tires-on-ice sounds this time. Go figure.
