    I keep hearing a lot of things like "Oozes Style" "Cult" "...but as a whole."

    These terms raise red flags for me and remind me of the trauma I suffered when I bought the much overrated No More Heroes at every critic's suggestion and realized how bad it really was.

    So this question is for all the picky gamers: is this really the most weird & fun game since Katamari Damacy?

    What should they have fixed before release?

    It is a nicely presented game with a great soundtrack, but the game mechanic is essentially quite simple. So it's a game that is appealing and distracting for short bursts - I wouldn't expect anyone to get more than 10hrs gameplay out of it.

    "what should they have fixed before release?"  

    Well as Alex_V put it, the game is appealing to short bursts of play for colourfulbrainexplosion mechanics.  The game only allows you to save your progress at the end of every level however, which usually takes from 40 to 60 minutes (unless you blast through them), so more save points would have been nice.
