Last week, a reliable source informed me of a new game he heard was in production – a collaboration between two devs he knows I am a huge fan of. I asked him for a little more clarification, and this morning he came through. That game, judging from the photo he sent, is Project Rap Rabbit.
Just in case you hadn’t noticed already, the main image itself is the beanie from PaRappa The Rapper crossed with Gitaroo Man’s hat. Underneath that are the words “Make rhythm-action great again!” Elsewhere, in the top corner, the text reads “Made in Japan.” Whether this implies that Gitaroo Man and PaRappa will be in the game, I’m not sure. It could simply be hinting at the involvement of those games’ creators – Masaya Matsuura and Keiichi Yano. A proposition which, if you’ll indulge me, is positively orgasmic in its potential. Given that PaRappa is a Sony-owned property and Gitaroo Man was previously a Koei game (not to mention the Project Rap Rabbit logo at the bottom of this image) my money would be on this being an entirely new project and collaboration. A collaboration that is mouth watering indeed, as both companies have a great track record, not just for their most well-known, iconic releases, but also with the likes of Vib-Ribbon and Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan.
The line that really intrigues me in all this, however, are the words “Make rhythm-action great again” – which in itself is implying that the rhythm-action scene really isn’t that great at the moment.
