LocoRoco

2006 · PlayStation Portable · Japan Studio

LocoRoco is a 2006 platform video game developed and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation Portable. The game was conceived by Tsutomu Kouno, who strived to create a game that was different from other titles being released for the PSP at the time. After demonstrating a prototype of the core gameplay to his management, Kouno was able to complete development over the course of a year and a half. In LocoRoco, the player must tilt the environment by using the shoulder buttons on the PSP in order to maneuver the LocoRoco, multi-colored jelly-like characters, through each level, being aided by other odd residents while avoiding hazards and the deadly Moja Troop, to reach an end goal.
