* CreatorDrivenSuccessor: As seen in the trailer, thegame follows the same gameplay formula and aesthetic as ''VideoGame/{{Patapon}}'' 1 and 2. The key difference is that the artstyle is much busier and even more vibrant than the ''[=RolitoLand=]''-influenced minimalism of the ''Patapon'' games(especially since Rolito is not involved in this project), and that the gameplay is noticeably more complex and intricate than ''Patapon'''s four-button layout. The logo can also be seen as "Patapon" if read at an angle. Also, instead of a single hero, every squad follows own hero.
