RANDOM GAME OF THE DAY:
Space Channel 5 (1999)
Developer: Sega
Platform: Sega Dreamcast
Purchase Date: 01/10/2000
The joy of being a space reporter.
This is the first music game made by the now famous Tetsuya Mizuguchi. The game feels more like an experiment and unlike Mizuguchi's eventual musical gaming endeavors like Rez and Lumines, it lacks a certain polish found in those masterpieces. The main character Ulala has to mimic the dance moves of the invading Mororians to uhm, combat them. Space Channel 5 has that retro-futuristic vibe both in its character design and musical influence. It's fun, it's hip, it's cool, and it features Michael Jackson!
LIBRARY STATUS: 3 out of 5
