The 1-Upper: Music in Motion

Oh boy. Playing Music in Motion makes me feel like it’s 1997 and my old college friend is trying to tell me that techno is so great, but I just don’t get it. That argument lasted for four years, but it was never resolved.
This game is a little weird, but it’s a neat concept. It’s a side-scroller, so, as the little astronaut-looking guy, you’ll run and jump and try to escape the ever-encroaching edge of the screen. As you do so, blocks corresponding to notes in the music will appear in front of you, impeding your progress. You’ll have to hop over them to reach the boss and move on to the next level. I played for a bit, but it never seemed to get too difficult. Somebody call Josh Wink, though. I think he could make this a bit more interesting.
