    At the end of this week's Bombcast, a user emailed looking for the name of a game that was 'Part top down shooter, part action adventure' that the crew was not able to positively identify. I'm pretty sure this is the one.

    I'd agree that matches the description exactly.  Good job.

    I was kind of lost until they said a girl who could turn into a spaceship. Then I was like "Aw yeah I love that game."

    I just listened to this week's Bombcast and ran here to say The Guardian Legend. I got this game instantly.

    It took me days to think of the name of this game after that bombcast. I have no recollection of the girl turning into the spaceship, but everything else sounded dead on to me.

    This has to be the game the person was referring to.
