BUMP with new trailer!





Right here.

Got our first screenshot at least. Impressive enemy design.

"An update to the game's official site fleshes out some of the game's backstory. A black hole forced humans to leave Earth. They placed all their belongings and valuables on large ships and set off into space. Once ship didn't fare very well: a gamma ray killed everyone inside. The ship's computer continued on, though, finding a safe planet to inhabit.

This new planet wasn't quite ideal, so the ship computers set out to make it so, generating Earth's creatures on this new surface. But, because of damage from an emergency landing, monsters were created instead of Earth creatures. A thousand years pass, and then the game begins.

You play as a new type of "human" created from the ship's computer. You'll work with the planet's natives, trading liquor for their Energy Balls, which you'll need to progress.

Andria Sang says that the battle system mixes real-time and command-based systems. You'll move your little human guy and then press the A button to freeze the action and input commands."

Sounds really interesting to me.

Wow, I remember hearing about this game a year ago. I was thinking of it a few days ago.

That looks pretty cool, and it sounds kind of silly Good to hear some actual info on the game, finally.

I just love the fact that liquor is the universal form of currency in this world.

Along with that awesome premise, I'm really digging the art direction as well:





Hopefully Xseed, Atlus, or someone of the sort picks this up for localization.

Awesome.

The environments seem really cool too.



Game sounds interesting overall, I'd probably pick it up if it was ever released over here. I suppose there aren't any gameplay vids to look at yet?

@r_hjort

There's such a generous use of vibrant colors too.

The Japanese site for the game has a collection of screen shots and more artwork, but no trailer just yet.

Ugh, I keep forgetting to not click on Destructoid links... ever. That site is fucking chock full of viruses, apparently.

Hard to tell what the gameplay will be... I like the premise, but the main character's design is a little too goofy, even taking typical Japanese fashion-eccentricities into mind. It's on my radar. Hopefully it'll come to western shores.

Holy shit, I am loving the overall art direction. It's so bold and garish and cartoony. And there's a good sense of alien-ness. Cautiously optimistic, just because these high-profile games often turn out disappointing. The game's developers have some cred, though. Fingers crossed.

This looks somewhat like Monster Hunter and that is a good thing!
