Meteos is a Nintendo DS Falling Blocks Puzzle Game, released in 2005, created by Masahiro Sakurai, of Kirby and Super Smash Bros. fame. His first work as an independent developer apart from HAL Laboratoriesnote Barring some uncredited supervisory work he did in the interim between this and Kirby Air Ride, Meteos was instead developed by Q Entertainment. As of this writing, it is Sakurai's only work apart from Nintendo (who still published the game in the West). Despite the pedigree and similar feel and features to his past work (Music vs. SFX slider, Item Switch, multiplayer emphasis), it comes off as a wholly original project.The game is set in a universe mostly populated with either Single Biome Planets or Planets of Hats, all inhabited by scribble-like races. The evil planet Meteo is steadily destroying the universe with a stream of 'phantasmagoric' meteors, called Meteos (Meteo being the Japanese transliteration for "Meteor"). However, by chance, three Meteos of the same kind align above a planet, launching the entire stream out of the victim planet's atmosphere. With this knowledge, a planet's civilization (you) sets out to defeat Meteo with their shape-shifting ship.Like many puzzle games, the concept is to line up three or more blocks (Meteos) of the same color/kind, moving them once they have landed. However, instead of simply disappearing, the Meteos will then ignite, becoming burnt blocks and propelling the blocks above the burnt blocks into the atmosphere, where they are then launched either into deep space or at an opposing player's atmosphere (play field). In addition, most launches require you to match a trio again while the chunk is still in midair in order to clear the top of the screen, each subsequent ignition being morenote Or, on some planets, less powerful. Throw in various explosive items and the ability to speed up the gameplay, and you've got a diabolically tense puzzler. The only catch is that you can only move the blocks up and down.Each planet (field) has its own traits, including width, gravity, block descent speed, and launch power. Each of the 40 planets (including Meteo) has its own civilization, music, and stage decor, all in a common theme, such as Firim/Ignius, the lava planet, or Globin, the red blood cell-shaped planet with breathing as its music's backbeat. Each planet's advantages and disadvantages make them more like characters than levels.There is a Mission-Pack Sequel based on Disney properties instead of planets, which allowed enabled blocks to be moved horizontally on all but the highest difficulty.A proper sequel, Meteos Wars, was released on the Xbox Live Arcade in 2008. It introduced online play, planet-specific special attacks, more planets and unlockable costumes for the aliens. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Star Trip has twelve of them, to be exact. Straight: Ending A: Invisible Bonds. The default ending. The Metamo Ark struggles to finish off Meteo, and are backed into a corner. The Ark is suddenly assisted by beams from other planets to help finish the job. Ending B: A Miracle Reborn. Achieved by scoring 500,000+ points or playing on Brutally Hard. Meteo is destroyed, but planets were still lost in the war. The Meteos were then used to perform a mass fusion to rebuild the universe. Branch: Ending A: A Spiritual Legacy. The Metamo Ark fused itself with the essence of other planets to match Meteo's might, but becomes a new Meteo after the ensuing battle. Ending B: A Sport is Born. Meteo is destroyed and peace returns. The gameplay itself becomes a sport among the planets, down to the risk of annihilation. Ending C: The Galaxy Embarks. The Meteos, having lost their master in Meteo, follow the Metamo Ark instead. The Ark then wanders the universe. Ending D: The New Utopia. Meteo is destroyed, and a utopian dream is now realized, no longer under the planet's threat. Ending E: The Galactic Fork. The Meteos fuse into a giant fork to impale the planet, with the Metamo Ark finishing it off by cutting it like a steak. Probably. It Makes Just as Much Sense in Context. Ending F: In the Angel's Halo. The Meteos have scattered and formed a radiant ring, giving birth to new planets. Ending G: A New Universe. Meteo is destroyed, but there was no universe left after the war. The Meteos fuse to become new planets, birthing new life. Multi: Ending A: The Ascent. Meteo is destroyed once and for all, and the Meteos have become self-spawning. No longer needing to fight, the Metamo Ark and its pilots have become like gods in the rebuilt universe. Ending B: The Great Battle. The Meteos prove themselves to be a nigh-infinite enemy, requiring a fleet of other Metamo Arks to fight the endless war. Ending C: The Limitless Eye. Meteo is destroyed… but it was only one of them. An entire legion of Meteos reveal themselves and attack the Metamo Ark, their fate unknown. | |

Gravity Screw | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_2864490b | comment |
Gravity Screw: The aptly-named Gravitas. According to official materials, gravity is 10 billion times stronger there than on Earth. Try and ignite Meteos and they stay frozen in place… then get a second ignition going and they shoot off into the atmosphere at breakneck speeds. Hevendor also has weird gravity; blocks fall at a normal speed, are really floaty when shot into the air individually, and are whisked away with a single ignition (which makes for game-breaking fun when coupled with a Super Rocket but otherwise it scores fairly low due to being unable to perform secondary ignitions, step-jumps, or even screen clears if you're playing without items in the DS game). | |

Bilingual Bonus: Lastar and Globin's Meteos designs in the DS version feature kanji relevant to their elements. (Air Meteos have 空 (air or sky), Fire has ç�« (fire), H2O has æ°´ (water), Soil has 地 (earth), Iron has 鉄 (iron), Zap has é›» (electricity), Herb has æ¤� (plant), Zoo has 生 (life), Glow has å…‰ (light), and Dark has é—‡ (darkness)). The beta designs for the Rare Meteos indicate that, had Rare Meteos had different designs on different planets, Soul would be é‚ (soul) and Time would be 時 (time). Sadly, since neither Lastar nor Globin appeared in Meteos Online and Wars mostly did away with unique Meteos designs, we might never know what Ice and Poison/Dust Meteos would have looked like on those planets. | |

Limit Break | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: Meteos Wars introduces super moves called "Planet Impacts", which vary from planet to planet: Gambit: Increases number of Meteos falling on opponent's field; decreases number falling on yours. Tempest: Clears columns of blocks from opponent's field — its usefulness can vary. Sentinel: Bombards opponent with garbage blocks. Armageddon: Sends a cluster of slow, unchainable blocks to opponent's field. Guide Dang It!: Each of the Planet Impacts has a secondary effect that greatly increases its effectiveness: Gambit: Garbage blocks are also affected by Gambit. The Gambit user is not only shielded from heavy attacks, but can also deliver massive, annihilation-inducing garbage block attacks to the opponent. Tempest: The Tempest beam follows the opponent's cursor. Most of the time, it will strike within three columns of the cursor. When timed right, this can completely wreck an opponent's progress and momentum. Sentinel: Burnt blocks under the effects of Sentinel, whether garbage or by the player, will restore themselves into random colors, making it harder for the opponent to find matches. The burnt blocks that Sentinel rains down are also much heavier than normal garbage blocks, slamming launched stacks back to the ground on most planets. Armageddon: Armageddon blocks are much heavier than normal blocks. They kill any ignitions when they first drop down and will inhibit any ignitions made underneath while still present. | |

| Meteos (Video Game) / int_2b0d73eb | comment |
Outlaw Town: Dejeh is a planet-sized version of this trope, run by a massive gang as its central authority. There are apparently other planets like Dejeh, which go to war with each other, with Dejeh being one of the few remaining ones. The criminals who live on Dejeh form an Enemy Mine when the Meteos blocks target them for planetary annihilation, though (but not an Enemy Mine enough to ally with most of the galaxy's other civilizations for the mission to destroy the Meteos threat once and for all). | |

Lethal Joke Character | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_36249acd | comment |
Lethal Joke Character: Florias's ignitions after the first may seem weak, but that's actually because Florias's mid-air ignitions are much, much weaker than its ground ignitions. Hence, the trick to using Florias effectively is to wait for the cluster to land before starting the next ignition. Arod's slowness and weak ignitions makes it difficult to keep up with most of the other planets in this game. However, this slowness is also its greatest asset: It has an easier time surviving pretty much anything than most other planets, and it can win battles of attrition like nothing else. Arod simply has to wait for its opponent to make a mistake, and then it can activate Gambit for a finishing blow. If the opponent survives the full 3 minutes, Arod is likely to have racked up a very large score, scoring the win anyways for Arod. Hanihula's incredibly feeble ignitions means the player has to do ten or eleven consecutive ignitions to clear the screen. However, because of the scoring system used in Meteos Wars, where Hanihula debuted, Hanihula is also one of the highest-scoring planets in the game and can win by time-out, where the planet with the higher score wins. Globin has a wide playfield and 6 colors of roughly even frequency. Combined with its strict annihilation countdown (the time between when a column fills up and the game decides you lose) which decreases over time, it can be tough to survive with Globin. However, Globin has the highest garbage block output in the game and is the quickest at building up the Planet Impact Sentinel. These two traits combined means Globin also has, by far, the deadliest garbage block attack in the game, and skilled use of Globin turns every match into Rocket-Tag Gameplay, where either the opponent or Globin gets annihilated quickly. | |

Golden Ending: The best route in the Multi-Path Star Trip is the most difficult due to some of the objectives on planets to get there. It's titled The Ascent where, after planet Meteo's defeat, the meteos started to self-replicate as the Metamo Ark no longer needed to fight and the self-spawning meteos were fused to repair the damage to all the planets that were once besieged. The denizens of the Metamo Ark became like gods, that is if they weren't gods already in Hevendor's case. | |

Long Song, Short Scene: Gravitas' "descent beat" never plays during normal gameplay.note This is because of the way Gravitas' gravity works: Either blocks don't launch (instantly creating ignited Meteos) or they disappear immediately. However, it does have one programmed, and can be heard if you purchase its sound set. "HELL NO!" "HELL NO!" "HELL NO!" | |

| Meteos (Video Game) / int_509769e7 | comment |
Numerological Motif: Some of the Meteo costs to fuse planets. Lucky Seven: Hevendor requires 777 of Air, Fire, H2O, Soil, Iron, Zap, Herb, and Zoo, as well as 77 of Glow and Dark, alongside 1 Soul and 1 Time. Number of the Beast: Jeljel requires 666 of Fire, Soil, and Zoo, alongside 3 Dark meteos. | |

Skill Gate Characters | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_59da9841 | comment |
Skill Gate Characters: Low-gravity planets, like Oleana and Starrii, are good for novices because their slow movements give them time to think. At higher levels of play, however, they start falling behind against higher-gravity planets that can score and attack faster than they can. Most low-gravity planets can still win matches through flawless or near-flawless play and, in Meteos Wars, well-timed Planet Impacts. Lumious can come off this way as well, due to its unusual Speeder mechanic. Someone new to Meteos will probably not use the Speeder much; they'll have a tough enough time keeping up without increasing the blocks' fall rate. However, using the Speeder on Lumious increases ignition speed and fall speed out of proportion with everything else and renders Lumious near-unplayable without learning to turn off the Speeder at critical moments, making Lumious both a Skill Gate Character and Difficult, but Awesome. Hevendor launches Meteos out of its atmosphere as soon as they're launched, which makes keeping up with an onslaught relatively simple, but makes scoring combos or full screen clears next to impossible. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Each of the Planet Impacts has a secondary effect that greatly increases its effectiveness: Gambit: Garbage blocks are also affected by Gambit. The Gambit user is not only shielded from heavy attacks, but can also deliver massive, annihilation-inducing garbage block attacks to the opponent. Tempest: The Tempest beam follows the opponent's cursor. Most of the time, it will strike within three columns of the cursor. When timed right, this can completely wreck an opponent's progress and momentum. Sentinel: Burnt blocks under the effects of Sentinel, whether garbage or by the player, will restore themselves into random colors, making it harder for the opponent to find matches. The burnt blocks that Sentinel rains down are also much heavier than normal garbage blocks, slamming launched stacks back to the ground on most planets. Armageddon: Armageddon blocks are much heavier than normal blocks. They kill any ignitions when they first drop down and will inhibit any ignitions made underneath while still present. | |

However, using the Speeder on Lumious increases ignition speed and fall speed out of proportion with everything else and renders Lumious near-unplayable without learning to turn off the Speeder at critical moments, making Lumious both a Skill Gate Character and Difficult, but Awesome. | |

Match-Three Game | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_a1e5f790 | comment |
Match-Three Game: With a twist. Matching three doesn't erase the Meteos from the board, merely igniting them for a rocket boost. You'll need to do that a couple more times to send them out of the field, save for Hevendor who can launch them out immediately. | |

Ditto Fighter: The Metamo Ark in both games is of the Dittomediate class, it's built from Meteo ore and designed to take on the appearance and properties of any planet it comes close enough to and its use would be to get close enough to Meteo and copy the Meteo creating ability to give the planet a taste of its own medicine. In the original, each civilization is implied to have a Metamo Ark and you could choose which planet your Ark comes from in the Star Trip mode. In Wars, there's only one Metamo Ark and hosts representatives from each planet it comes across and spars with in practice for the final battle. | |

Jack of All Stats: The initial four planets, Geolyte/Geolitia, Anasaze, Oleana, and Firim/Ignius, are all fairly average, toned-down planets for new players. Oddly, Lumious, a planet introduced in Meteos Online promoted to an introductory planet in Meteos Wars, is not. Even experienced players have trouble getting it to work. | |

And, in order to unlock it, you have to fuse together a few different kinds of Meteos. You need 666 of each of three of those types... | |

Nerf | |
| Meteos (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: Forte got the heaviest nerf from Meteos to Meteos Wars. Because its physics make it such that a skilled Forte player can pretty much clear the screen at will, its garbage block output was severely reduced for Meteos Wars. Whereas any other planet will send at least 6 or 7 rows of garbage blocks if a full screen gets pushed off the edge (unless there is a huge size difference between playfields), Forte can only do about 3 or 4. Brabbit received an indirect one in Meteos Wars as well. Because Brabbit's strategy is mostly about long, uninterrupted chains of ignitions, and all four Planet Impacts are about interrupting the opponent, Brabbit has a tough time dealing with them. As explained above in Difficult But Awesome, Tempest in particular messes Brabbit up a lot, as it splits up large clusters into many small ones, making it virtually impossible to keep them ignited or to connect them back together. | |
