This is because the powerup system from TUMIKI Fighters is still present. When you shoot an enemy, it falls out of the sky. If it lands on you, it sticks to your ship, firing its own projectiles and acting as armor -- though, according to the preview, "because you're trying to quickly catch them any way and with any part of your ship you can, you wind up having little control over the actual direction that captured guns fire." If you take a hit, a piece of this "armor" falls off. It's quite easy to build up a giant Katamari-like clump of junk around your ship, but you then lose maneuverability and even start to have a hard time figuring out what's going on onscreen.

Suddenly I have interest in this game.
No seriously, I was tossing it aside because I'm not much for shooters, but Katamari like? Sold me on it.

This is one of the few upcoming games that really has my interest. Can't wait for more news.

Way to censor and edit comments even though they appear correct in the email.

Somehow, I think if they 'censored' your original comment, they would've done the same for your second.
More likely just a bug. What did you say, anyway?

Hey, at least I was charitable enough to keep part of the comment and only delete the spam link.

That's the strangest game I've ever seen. No lie. Not even Katamari.
