Abnormal Mapping 60: Katamari Damacy

Celebrate the shortest month with the shortest hero as Abnormal Mapping delves into the wide world of rolling up extremely tiny objects in Katamary Damacy. This includes the first game, We Love Katamari, and even some Katamari Forever. Plus, we dip into Keita Takahashi’s development history and philosophy of design. Come for the good conversation, stay for the incredible music. We’re 60 years young and still rolling strong!This Month’s Game Club: Katamari DamacyNext Month’s Game Club: Final Fantasy IXYou can get our podcast on iTunes, on Stitcher, or you can download it directly by clicking here.Things Discussed: Mortal Kombat 9, the coolness of Ninjas, Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy: Curtain Call, Hatsune Miku Project DIVA Future Tone, Guitar Hero Live, Braid, The Swapper, Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation, Ori & The Blind Forest, Mario Galaxy, Gravity Ghost, Katamari Damacy, The Zelda 1 Map in Zelda 2, Katamari Items Twitter, We Love Katamari, Noby Noby Boy, Beautiful Katamari, Wattam (Coming Soon!), Keita Takahashi’s Twitter, The Katamari of Amigara Fault, Ninja Gaiden, Dark SoulsMusic This EpisodeBlown Away by Ken MacLeodKatamari Mambo by Yuri MisumiQue Sera Sera by Asuka SakaiCherry Blossom Color Season by Yuu MiyakeKatamari on the Rocks by Yuu Miyake
