A surprise doujin entry assisted by the often thought dead developer and publisher, Jaleco. Some may know of Jaleco through their Suchi-Pai games and oddities like Punky Skunk, Astyanax, Totally Rad, Dragonseeds, and several others. They almost always published obscure titles outside of Japan, most of which never sold well or got little public recognition. Because of those credentials, it may come as little surprise that Jaleco is one of my favorite underappreciated companies, since I dabble in a lot of weird games. "Chokotto Daiya Runba!" or more literally "Slightly Diamond Runba!", is called such because Daiya is the abbreviation in Japanese for diamonds, which you'll be collecting. The game is also known as "Chokotto DiaRunba!".

This is a very simple, but very addictive little game made in 2009 and it is freeware where you control a girl wearing some kind of whale hat thingy. It has simple music and colorful visuals too. The game has a pretty simple concept that gets tougher as you progress; you must guide the girl who can only move right. Along the way, you must match enemies up in a "Puyo" style fashion, where two enemies next to each other can destroy each other, turning into gems for massive points.

There are a couple of enemies...those moving green ones are annoying and most walk into another enemy to destroy themselves, whereas the red ones simply have to be lined up next to each other. The further along you get, the more obstacles appear to take you out.

I should note that I lost on the end on purpose to make the video length somewhat shorter. It's a pretty fun game overall.
