  • Weekly Game Music: The Flaming Tree (Tsugunai: Atonement)

    New week, new music.  This week, we return to a calmer tune, with a hint of wonder.  Yasunori Mitsuda composition, The Flaming Tree, has a mysterious feel to it.  Quite fitting for a spiritual game like Tsugunai: Atonement.

    Tsugunai: Atonement tells a story of a daredevil mercenary named Reise. When he attempts to retrieve the Treasure Orb as one of his missions, however, the gods angrily handicaps him by splitting his soul away from his body.  Now only a ghost, Reise must atone for his sins by possessing other people and helping them aid their life.

    Tsugunai: Atonement is a turn-based RPG.  Unlike a generic JRPG, however, the “party” is only one character Reise happened to possess at that time.  In this sense, the town acts as a character hub for Reise, where each possessee have their own special abilities.  Once possessed, Reise may visit a nearby dungeon to fight through monsters and defeat the main evil.

    Tsugunai: Atonement was released on the Playstation 2 in 2001.

  • Weekly Game Music: Bird’s Eye (Senko no Ronde DUO)

    New week, new music.  This week’s music is a futuristic composition, Bird’s Eye, that sounds like it’s only a step away from spaghetti western.  This strange hybrid of music genre by Yasuhisa Watanabe is conveniently in a game that also combines two unlikely gameplay: Senko no Ronde DUO.

    Senko no Ronde DUO describes a future where the human race now lives beyond Earth.  The Aria Federation, the space army of sorts, learns of an evil plot: someone is trying to obtain their best superweapon!  The Federation immediately commands eight mech pilots to hunt and destroy this terrorist.

    Senko no Rondo DUO is a 2-player mech fighter where both characters navigate on a single plane.  Hits are dealt not through fists and feets, but through laser guns.  And LOTS of them.  Each character’s super-power practically turns them into a bullet-hell boss, switching the game from a 2-player shoot’em up to a bullet-dodging exercise.

    Senko no Rondo DUO was released for Xbox 360 in Japan in 2010.  No US or European release has been made.
