The President's Adventure 2: Galaxy Explorers

The President's Adventure 2: Galaxy Explorers is the sequel to the game The President's Adventure. In beta phase, a sequel was decide to be created right after the first game entered development. I'm not going to say that "rumors spread", but just some things are decided, what means everything can chance in a minute.

The Flashback
Back in Hocotate, Olimar's beloved homeland, sitting around a campfire is the 2013 team of Student Space Cadets. Olimar and Louie became the camp supervisors, and they're duty is to provide tasks for the ascension explorers and some fun, as well. When the night come and stars take their place in the sky, Olimar starts to wonder about a story to tell the brave little kids, when one, in particular, with blue hair and blue everything, raise his hand.

Mr. Olimar, was you dream to become a space cadet?, said him, with a peculiar look in his face. Olimar wondered, as Louie opened his mouth to say something, Olimar stopped him. He took a picture out of the secret boot from his suit with him, alongside with Pikmin. The boy took a long look at the picture, and repeated. 'My big dream is to become an famous explorer, like you, sir, and, someday, make a big discovery, like the Pikmin. But my father doesn't like that...'

Olimar stared at that kid and, suddenly, an image of himself as a kid crossed his mind. He wondered if that could be a dream, because Louie was almost getting his hand burned toasting a marshmellow in the campfire and keep a calm smile in his face while some girls laughed. Olimar just couldn't get that image out of his head... And that weird felling within his heart. Something was definitely about to happen.

The Speech
The next morning, Louie couldn't find Olimar anywhere. He was usually the first one to get up, but Louie just couldn't locate him. The President was standing in the improvised stage, were he was supposed to give an "heart warming speech" to make kids don't want to leave the camp program, since funds in Hocotate just keep going downer and downer. As The President waited for Olimar a little blushed from all the children laughing and pointing, Louie raced his way to the stage to tell him his partner was missing.

That's not good... whispered The President, with a tiny bit of desperation running through his voice. Louie gave him a look that said something like 'C'mon! This kids are the only things that keep me out of living in the streets! Well, their parents wallets, but, anyway....'

Something wrong? said a voice from the audience. 'Yeah, why is it taking so long? And where's Captain Olimar? He wasn't at breakfast this morning.' Louie ran away as The President tried to find a way to keep everybody calm. And quiet. 'Now, now, children, let's not get angry. Captain Olimar had... Something in his way and just couldn't come. Now, let me talk to you about the magic that is the wide space!'

The same kid from last night, with blue hair and blue everything, was amazed by The President's speech, that just pointed out everything amazing there is in space. But he was the only one. Nobody look inspired. Nobody look like giving attention to him. That's trouble. said the kid to himself.

The Missing Link
Days go by as Olimar don't reappear. Louie start to get nervous, and eating fry Bulborbs become his hobby, Louie start to put on some weight. Feeling outrageous, The President demand that he lost that fanny pack of his and get the camp dismissed. That was going to be a summer, but a summer without a camp is like nothing! Louie gave the warning. But nothing. What about the tears and yells of desperation? Nothing.

No one seems to care, anymore, Mr. President spoked Louie, faking his sadness. Hocotate is just going to need another loan if we're looking to get through this month! he kept going on, and on, until The President was depressed enough he jump off his chair and decide to go look for Olimar himself! That was his duty, right? Olimar must be in danger, and he was the one who was going to help him!

I care! said a weak voice, but nobody heard. In the middle of the crowd of kids running here and there, The President and Louie ran to their space ships without giving that kid the attention he was looking for. And who was that kid again? Yes, of course, the blue everything! He's eyes filled with tears as he saw ship crossing the skies. 'No camp? No Captain Olimar? This can't be it... THIS CAN'T BE IT!' a scream of desperation shouted out his throat as he raced somewhere. Where?

Nobody know. In fact, nobody know what was going to happen. The President, along with Louie, had just leap into his brand new adventure.

Space Pikmin
As the game's title says, The President will definitely explore the vast universe that surrounds us. And Pikmin, as they're everywhere, could not be missing in the wide open space. Meet Space Pikmin, the newest kind of Pikmin. They won't have their Onions or Candypop Buds. To make a Space Pikmin, a regular Pikmin must be exposed to Moon Light. It's still not a right thing how Pikmin will be exposed to Moon Light, since it can be from itens, enemies or the environment itself, but Space Pikmin is a confirmed thing.

Rock Pikmin
The possible revolution from the canon game Pikmin 3 will appear in this sequel. As it's skills aren't yet fully confirmed, here, Rock Pikmin may have different skills from the canon version. Like rumors said, the Medusal Slurkers will be present, since facts points out that the enemy will be an important object in the reprodution of Rock Pikmin. If that changes, any Candypop Bud or even an Onion will be created, and the information will be corrected.

Flying Pikmin (or Pink Pikmin)
The flying Pikmin without a confirmed name here appears as Flying Pikmin (or Pink Pikmin) will appear in the game as well. Since it's skills aren't confirmed, the game may change what an actual Pink Pikmin does. Since the game is in still beta phase, lots of things can change before it actually goes on.

Scanning Device
Now equiped with last generation objects, the Captains in the game will always carry their Scanners. Made out of titanium and a special alien technology, the Scanner can figure out what kind and type of object is one thing, or several things, or a living object. Nowadays, to complete the enemy database, using the scanner may help before a important fight. And to figure out how to get through obstacles, this useful item will also be a hint.

Moon Light
With an adventure featuring the space as it's main stage, there was almost that certain that space features will be in the game. Meet the Moon Light feature, that are spotlights of dark light that turns regular Pikmin into... Space Pikmin! They appear in some levels, as caves, but in the up side of the world. By simply walking a Pikmin in one of those spotlights turn one in Space Pikmin, it is easy as breeding Pikmin with a candypop bud or making a grilled cheese.

Cosmic Clone
Still in Beta Gameplay, while walking in a rocky like area (also supposed being the Moon Bounce area), a dark purple clone of The President appeared. The cosmic clone looked a lot like those clones present in the Super Mario Galaxy series. Using Pikmin was enough to defeat it, which gave the player a treasure, being the Cosmic Clone a possibility of boss.

Golden Bulborb
During Beta Gameplay, The President fight a shinying Bulborb, who looks a lot like the common Bulborb. After being defeated, it gave seeds that sprouted the Gold Pikmin. However, being the Beta Gameplay video, it's possible that Golden Bulborb won't be included or that he won't have the power to gave out Gold Pikmin seeds. Also, he's name's not confirmed.

Gigantus Beetle
A confirmed enemy that will be the boss of the Beetle Jungle cave. It looks like a Iridescent Flint Beetle, but it's huge and cover almost the entire screen. It isn't as fast as the Iridescent Flint Beetle, and it don't move, just turn his body to spot the player and the Pikmin. He's a confirmed boss in the game.

Chompy Chomp
An insect like specie of the Chomp Chomp, enemy from the Super Mario series. During Beta Gameplay, it chased the player and eated Pikmin. Instead of the metal chain it has tied to his body, the Chompy Chomp, which is pink, has flowers. Also, during a quick scene from the Beta Gameplay, the Chompy Chomp was tied to a three, tried to attack The President, but couldn't.

Honeybear
A supposed enemy from the game who looks like Winnie, the Pooh. It is smaller and looks more like a toy bear, with button eyes and a tied up mouth. During Beta Gameplay, it was attacking a three with a hole in the middle. Supposably looking for honey. It didn't attacked The President even when it walked very closed to it. It's body it's all yellow and it wears a letter vest.

Arcana (supposed name)
During Beta Gameplay, it was spotted a light blue energy walking creature. It looked like made of ice, because it left a trail from where it walked. Few things are known about this creature, which wasn't even interected with in the Beta Gameplay.

Frogbert
Another confirmed enemy is supposed to appear in levels where snows. It is a frog with red cheeks and a snow looking like body. In the Beta Gameplay, in a level with snow, still unknown, the Frogbert opened his mouth and spitted a giant snow ball, that killed several Blue Pikmin. When it was defeated, it gave away a treasure, what gives the possibility of him being a boss.

Space Bulblax
A confirmed boss from the game. It is unknown in what cave or area it will appear, and it's skills and battle formation is still unknown, but it is definitely going to appear.

Lilith
The Lilith is a tentacle creature. It has an entire purple tentacle body, with only his yellow eyes popping out. In the Beta Gameplay, a Lilith attacked Yellow Pikmin with his tentacles, and grabbed two with them. After lifting them up in the air, throwed them inside his yellow eye cove, where his mouth must be hidden. Not yet confirmed.
