GC: Space Giraffe - Gameplay

Ungulate obsessed programmer Jeff Minter is something of a cult figure. He has been making games since 1981, including the 360's in-built Neon light-synthesiser, all of which have been pretty unusual. Space Giraffe could just take the biscuit though.

It does look like someone has decided that so long as they can experiment with their own visual ideas, it doesn't matter if the gamer can actually see anything that is going on.

Downloaded the trial this morning and didn't actually find it too hard to work out what was happening when I got a feel for how it all worked. It did, however, give me a motherfumbler of a headache.. so no buy from me.

So it's Tempest with a light synthesiser running on top of it?

As far as I know, one of the key gameplay ideas is to learn to filter the visual noise.

I'd love to play this, I need to get a 360.

This is the video that should be shown to anyone who blindly defends Minter when he says this is some kind of fantastic game that no-one gets.

It's a mess pure and simple. He insulted frogger, yet took tempest and ruined it with some tripped out hippy visuals.
