Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has another creative game in the pipeline with a killer style. Patapon’s gameplay is a blend of 2D action, Lemmings and modern music/rhythm games. You guide a group of armed eyeballs into battle by pressing buttons in time with the beat. Icons pop up to press the circle, X, square and triangle buttons. If you do this on time and your army throws spears and swings their blades. You can see the iconic warriors here, but the trailer does a much better job explaining how Patapon plays.
heh, That’s the YouTube video I uploaded! (the first patapon video on there.. i knew this was going to be an interesting title a mile away..)
To answer NPC, I’m hoping that this was still in it’s early stages..
Much like LocoRoco, the first demo shown didn’t have dynamic music like it has now, so I hope some (good) music pops up in later videos..

Looks great, but either I’m missing something or there’s no music in this game…
