Get Pop+. I got it today (even though it came out friday here) and it's got much more to do than PICTOBiTS, plus it has badges, more modes and everything. I know I'll be playing this more than I did PICTOBiTS.

Cheezy

It really is great. And, honestly, I never really liked the one on WiiWare all that much, so I WAS a bit skeptical, but like my normal self, I got it anyways. I'm not at all dissapointed.

Just beat my first boss... I am loving this game!!! (now I understand it a bit more.) I like the chill mode but is there a way to ever "save" your progress in chill mode since it always warns me before I quit that I will lose progress?

Charlie... Great score! I agree, but I'd give it a full on 9 ;) I think NL gave it a 9 (Corbie?) but 8.8 ain't bad either. ;)

I have to not one weird thing about the game.
If you run out of time in adventure mode, QUIT, then resume your game from the menu.
If you tap retry you'll start ALL the way back at level one and now the wave your at now, where as if you quit, and go back and resume, you'll start back on the last wave you were at.

Why they did this is beyond me, but it's annoying, but easily avoidable.

still can't even get to the first boss....keep running out of time on the fourth stage. I'm sure I'll get the scoring down better soon though--I'm really impressed so far! Just wishing I was better

I think this message always appears no matter in what mode you are. I mean there are no points or whatsoever in chillmode so there's actually no progress that can be lost

There is progress in chill mode, when you first start it up it says there are 16 waves.
I'm on the wave before the second boss I think, I ran out of time by popping loads of skulls with shockwaves though.

I'm at a loss as to why everyone is so enthusiastic about this game. I downloaded with a bit of apprehension, and it's even less interesting than I expected. I don't see how a 9/10 is at all justified, as it's blandly repetitive and to be honest never feels particularly original in any aspect. It's not absolutely terrible, but I had to force myself to keep playing and try out the different modes, go through many waves, etc. It just wasn't very interesting or fun at any point.

Pick any one of the Art Style games and you'll get ten times the creativity, presentation, and music for your 500 points.

Oh well, at least it only takes up 24 blocks.
