You are an extradimensional entity that crossed into the world of Zemuria to find something that has been stolen.

Reclaim your memory, find what was stolen, and punish the thieves!
And maybe make some friends along the way.
It started when an alien device did what it did
And stuck itself upon his wrist with secrets that it hid
Now he's got super-powers, he's no ordinary kid,
So if you see him you might be in for a big surprise,
He'll turn into an alien before your very eyes,
He's slimy, creepy, fast and strong, he's every shape and size,
All new powers, he's on the case
Fighting off evil from Earth or space.
He'll never stop 'till he makes 'em pay,
'cause he's the baddest kid to ever save the day!
Can you be more successful than Rita Repulsa?
