LocoRoco was the first game he worked on alone and wasn't initially approved on its first or second presentation. Only when a demo was shown on the third attempt did LocoRoco's approval come through. We can only imagine how frustrating those attempts at describing game play would have been on a mere PowerPoint presentation. As far as the sequel is concerned, Tsotomu Kouno said the sequel would contain, "new game play based on physical calculation and crowd AI" amidst other surprises. Ideally, the "use of color and music" is the central focus for the series, attempting "to create the fun and dramatic atmosphere of a live musical." Sounds great, as long as we don't end up playing Chicago: The Game Based on The Movie Based on The Play. Personally, we welcome new ideas, but prefer more the same game play that made LocoRoco so unique. It it ain't broke, don't fix it, right?

Shouldn't that be "Chicago: The Game Based on The Movie Based on The Musical Based on The Play Based on True Events?", unless of course you're referring to either the original silent version from 1927 or the remake as Roxie Hart in 1942. The 2002 version was a musical inspired by the original 1926 play. :)

I would buy a new LR , but maybe if the game would be a bit more complex and puzzle-oriented :?
