Great video. The air ship idea was an idea in the early stages of the first Patapon Game except it’s a giant bird carrying a Patapon and a cannon. Maybe he got the idea from that. As for the music, I think the individual Ratatan might sing unique song. However, that would be a bit straining if development took time to make unique music for each Ratatan.

My current running theory for multiple inputs having the same "direction" is that maybe you switch between vocal colors or "styles" by pressing a directional button. Thus, "Zun" and "Taka" are possibly the equivalent to "Pon" and "Chaka" in the Yellow/Right "stance." The arrows in corperated into the words could then likely be an accessibility feature for colorblind individuals, like reCORE did for its color based combat system. Pure speculation at this point in time, but the idea came to me.

I'm uncertain if anyone else has mentioned this, but from what I've been able to gather, the extra notes that are shown in the gameplay teaser *seem* to be eighth notes - which, for those of you who don't know much about music, are basically notes that fit directly between the four main beats of a typical measure. The reason it only looks like seven is because, for whatever reason, they don't use the final eighth note in the measure. Probably so that the name of the game fits in more comfortably. I would also guess that the same input results in a different command depending on whether it's on the downbeat - the quarter note - or the upbeat. For instance, "Ra," being on the downbear and "Ta," being the upbeat. If this is true, that could potentially lead to a *terrifying* amount of variability in the number of commands that you can issue to your little army, so I'm sorta looking forward to how they might utilize that. Of course, it could also be the case that most of the inputs work like "Pata," in Patapon and just automatically play two notes, save for the final input of the sequence, and the way the words show up individually is just a stylistic choice

when you mentioned how it seems the game is 7 beats per command instead of 4, i want to note that when you look at the commands shown in the gameplay trailer, they still work with 4 button presses since the start of Rata, Zuntaka, and Yahoi are all on the first, second and third beats, with the ending command (Tan,and Hoi so far) always on the 4th. so it's possible that just like with pata and chaka in patapon, the offbeat is just the second part of the note, they just have separate icons instead of the same one now (Patapon showed Pata and Chaka as one image, but they have access to more resources now so they could split the offbeat part of the command into another image so it appears on offbeats, making the whole command look more like one whole line of music and not the four separated drum hits)

It's lovely that things have sort of come full circle in regards to your (amazing) retrospective video! Ending on a hopeful note regarding "Project Jabberwocky", and now here we are - the team themselves even leaving a comment on your video! How wonderful is that? A few other neat things of note from my own observations: - Things seem a lot more lighthearted this time around (so far, anyway). Redo seems like a happier, more vibrant world, and the antagonistic forces seem more "antihero" than true evils. Less like it's a violent battle to the bitter end, and more this... mayhem of giant armies just walloping each other. The overall additude of the game's presentation and narration seems way livelier! - I wonder if some of these cameos will involve the "ending" of the Patapon series. Redo being the restored world after the Patapons reached Earthend and restored the shattered world, their legacy being this Medama power, and the power of music as a whole. (In fact, it seems like the Power of Music will be a big theme.) It's cute to imagine that the mysterious boat sounds at the end of Patapon 3 could arguably be suggesting at Fortrun and the other big ships...) - The Ratatan all have unique voices! The isolated songs seem to feature Keronronpa's "hoarse voice", but every Ratatan we've seen in detail has a voice actor attributed to them. Which really adds some nice depth to the "vocal commands" from Patapon 3! - It seems like different regions might involve different genres of music, at least as a base. Yeehawler Mountain and the Paridian Sea seem to both start off as the themes for the bad guys, before the Ratatan and Cobun get so amped up they manipulate the song into something that's distinctly theirs. So maybe we'll get a region dedicated to funk, and... well, who knows? - The songs have definitive endings and resolutions now! Which might seem like a small thing, but it's neat to know that rather than the song just getting cut off into a victory fanfare, there'll be a "send off" as the stage ends, almost like the Ratatan and crew are saying a sort of confident "Farewell!" as they make their escape, or whatever determines a stage being completed. Regardless of whatever ends up happening, I'm so excited! It's been amazing to behold all these old Patapon fans coming out from the woodwork as if roused from an ancient slumber - almost like how the Patapon games of old always began, the whole troupe being drawn in by the music finally returning to them. I've already sunk a good chunk of savings into this - I'm so excited for whatever information follows, along with the inevitable release!!

When I was a kid and loved Patapon 2 when I could play it on my PSP(never played any of the other games), and still remember it and LocoRoco as the most unique games I ever played in my life, so seeing it getting an actual spiritual successor to the series actually instantly made me try to see how I can back it. Mind you, I wasn't talking or even thinking about the series before the Ratatan trailer was recommended to me even though it was in the back of my mind since I was around 6-8 years old(I am now 19, it was that memorable to me lol), so I was so surprised I kinda yelled out loud. I will definitely look forward to how the development goes ! Side note: since I was a kid at the time of playing, I wasn't aware of any of the circumstances behind the series nor was interested in it. Imagine my bewilderment when I watched your Retrospective that not only there was a 3rd Patapon with cool looking characters, but also that the entire series was made alongside one of the dev team's family.

I'm so glad this is happening, I pledged immediately after I found out it was coming to Steam and can't wait for it to release! I do however think I like the more minimalist artstyle of patapon over ratatan though, I feel like the extra detail and mix of colors may be distracting and make it hard to focus on the whole picture without everything just becoming a kaleidoscope of colors, especially when your fighting another army and the camera zooms out really far like we've seen. I also hope as you said that they'll have more genres like jazz and rock like patapon did, and I think I'd rather just have instrument beats like drums and such over the vocal callouts (which I disabled in Patapon 3 to save my sanity. Who knows, its still early, some of these things may be changed or made options, and I'm glad we're getting this at all. Maybe the fact that its doing so well will give Sony a good kick in the pants to release a remaster of patapon 3, or at least release the first two game's remasters on PC

Una teoría loca, el hecho de que el dodonga haya aparecido mágicamente desde otro mundo y nadie sepa exactamente de sus orígenes, no indicaría el hecho de que el mundo de patapon, en el que somos el ser supremo, es un mundo diferente pero que están en el mismo universo?... si es así, no seria una coincidencia que en el juego nos encontramos con... no se, quizás un barco que se perdió en el mar hace mucho tiempo con símbolos extraños de tambores... o con un guerrero antiguo portando una guadaña enorme y capaz de controlar el viento en forme de tornados?.

Aw man! My best friend showed me Ratatan yesterday and did a little bit of google and found your patapon retrospective and was gladly impressed on how invested you are in this games (i'm also a katamari fan, played for days in a row when I lived with the aforementioned friend) after watching your retrospective I thought "this guy is gonna be ELATED when he finds out about ratatan" and here you are. Hope this game comes to fruition soon

Maybe the 7 input commands are actually doubled-up automatically. Like, press 1 button, and 2 words appear after eachother. So it'd be input>input>input>input, but the characters speak in 2>2>2>1 It also fits the timing of the pulsing outer border. The characters are essentially combo'ing their lyrics and ending it with a shorter finale. This also matches the pace of the lyrics in Patapon games, like with the Move Command: Pa-ta>Pa-ta>Pa-ta>Pon.

Patapon was one of my childhood fav game and pretty much what attracted me to the PSP (aside from Need for Speed). Im very glad that Ratatan is a spiritual successor though I hope it will be widely available as much as possible in all platforms. This would be perfect to Switch Players and I hope I see it in GOG or Steam.

So from what I can tell it's the same measure overall for Ratatan as with Patapon, we simply moved from playing only on half-notes like in Patapon to playing on quarter-notes, which is for the most part, an easy way to increase the tempo and complexity of the game mechanics. That being said it most likely also means that if you mess up an input then you can only recover on screen flash which could make fumbles a lot worse for newer players than in Patapon. As for how we can have multiple notes making up a direction, my best guess is that the game uses the face buttons, as a modifier key for each note set making up four directions and the d-pad is then likely changed from (possibly) movement to giving the commands as we hear both the Ratata singing the notes and in some instances our presumed warband leader (who is fittingly for this type of system using a stringed instrument where this control style would make sense) plucking away at the notes. We could also just get multiple notes for a direction as a result of them adding unique instruments to the game to pick for each mission and the above could just be my sleep deprived rambling looking for a system that doesn't exist.

That's kinda my fear that the added complexity will be discouraging for newbies, but it all depends on how forgiving the system is.

Love the music so far especially the music before the end of the video.

Long as the music is as dynamic and diverse as the previous games, I don't think it'll be an issue at all. The stretch goals for chiptune music, David Wise as a guest composer and even the soon to be met goal of "Orchestrated Music" should definitely keep it interesting. Adachi-san will deliver, I'm confident of it!

I am so excited for this game, I was reminded of Patapon the other day when I watched your retrospective, which was super high quality by the way. I hadn't had played Patapon since I was probably about 8 or 9 and so I picked up 2 on my ps5 the other day to try and relive that experience. Was surprised to see the announcement of Ratatan not even a few days after watching the patapon retrospective. Really looking forward to Ratatan and I will be trying my best to try and support it, I am between jobs right now so its not easy but man this game looks beautiful. By the way keep up the amazing videos man, I just started the Katamari Damacy video and I am loving it and really look forward to see what you do in the future!
