Re:Coded - There's No Pausing!

So in all honesty I have like no idea what is going on in the game. There's a journal and a Data!Sora... and anything other than that draws up a bit of a blank. I didn't pay attention to Coded when it was orginally coming out as it was for cell phones. Japanese cell phones. So I invite you to discover Re:Coded with me!

  • So we start off with… Naminé!
  • Right at the end of Chain of Memories where she and Sora say goodbye and Sora promises to find her and that they’ll be friends FOR EVER!
  • And right away into Techno!Simple and Clean accompanied by stuff from KH1 and lots of lovely green numbers and letters fill up the screen. ROXAS AND XION! We’ve also got COM, 358/2 and KH2 scenes! The lack of Axel disturbs me… oh look he’s dying. It ends with Pretty CGI Kairi at the end of KH2 flashing to Naminé.
  • OH HI JIMINY!
  • Oh god there’s no pausing!
  • Ummm the journal from KH1 is blank? And it says to Thank Naminé and… something about hurting?
  • "Their hurting will be mended, when you return to end it."
  • Mickey and Jiminy are confused about how the message got in the journal
  • So… they’re gonna figure out stuff?
  • And the journal isn’t empty? It still has stuff in it… I’m so lost guys.
  • There’s Donald and Goffy and Chip and Dale and… they pull out a big old computer thing? And zap the journal. And pictures pop up on the screen and now there’s evil blocks?
  • WHY ARE THERE WORLDS IN THE JOURNAL? Why is nobody worried about this?
  • Oh yes… let’s go inside the computer. That sounds wonderful…
  • And we’ve gotta find somebody already in there to fix the journal?
  • Ummm Tron!
  • A… DATA!SORA!
  • Oh god a Calling Station!
  • WHY IS THIS MOVING SO FAST?!
  • So… this seems like basically the same thing. Disembodied voice… creepy music… pick a shield/staff/wand and toss one.
  • I think the text is even the same.
  • Anyhoo I always pick the same: Take the shield, toss the wand.
  • I’m kinda surprised there hasn’t been a level picker… thinngy. Like easy/hard/stuff.
  • Oh back to the Castle Gang! I guess… they’ve set Sora up. And he can use the keyblade and “un-glitch” the journal.
  • OH HELL THERE’S AN ALARM!
  • Off go Chip and Dale…
  • Oh good Goofy is confused too. So let’s let Mickey explain!
  • There’s a weird message in the journal and the only way to find out who left it is by analyzing the book.
  • “Their hurting will be mended when you-,” Is the message or the start of it? Jiminy cuts Mickey off...
  • No they’re yelling at the monitor?
  • THERE IS SOMEBODY IN SORA’S DREAM?! On the Calling Station?!
  • A cloaked figure!
  • Who… is like “…” and walks away. Riiiight… Okay?
  • Oh hey Mickey is there! Or… a blue speech bubble. Apparently we gotta go after Cloaked!Person.
  • Awaaaaaaaaaay!
  • Okay not much of a chase if you’re gonna go that slow… and disappear…
  • Heartless!
  • And we get a keyblade!
  • So after some fighting we get a Command Deck… which seems like the one from Birth by Sleep.
  • Wow info dump… there’s new finishing move system and a Stat Matrix
  • The Stat Matrix is kinda like the stat block thingy from 358/2. Some of the language is the same but guuuh looks complicated. Also the difficulty level thingy is in the Stat Matrix and you can adjust it at any time. I put it on Proud Mode (as Proud Mode was kinda easy for me in BBS) but I might have to switch it.
  • Okay so we’ve got a save and a door.
  • I kinda feel like BBS/KH1/358/2 mated to make this game. Or that’s how the controls are feel right now.
  • Oh we're going somewhere...
