How do I switch?


you have to get the symbols in normal world. Then in dreamworld hit SELECT to cycle thru. Yin yang is ninja. Wizards cap is wizard. Etc.

ALSO, coffee and stereos wake you up from dreamworld, so you'll stop being a dream warrior and just be you. Boss fights are always in dreamworld, so switch to chosen dreamwarrior.

Keio Flying Squadron 2: Sega Saturn
Its got a neat mixture of platforming levels and shmup levels. Very fun to play, and a bit challenging at times.

Metalgun Slinger: GBA
A post-apoc western MegaMan style game with smooth acrobatic controls. I had a blast with it.

Baby Felix Halloween: GBC
I reviewed it > http://www.rfgeneration.com/blogs/scarp ... C-1842.php
