Tail Concerto

Tail Concerto (Japanese: ?????????, Hepburn: Teiru Koncheruto) is an action-adventure platform video game developed by CyberConnect and published by Bandai for the PlayStation. It is the first installment in the Little Tail Bronx series, which takes place in a steampunk fantasy world of floating islands populated by anthropomorphic dogs and cats. The game revolves around a canine police officer named Waffle Ryebread and his encounters with the Black Cat Gang, a group of sky pirates who aim to steal magic crystals. Though it received a generally positive response from critics, the title was met with low sales in Japan, falling short of the publisher's expectations. Tail Concerto was first released in Japan on April 1998 and the following December in France, with an English version released in North America in November 1999 by publisher Atlus. The game features character designs and artwork by manga artist Nobuteru Y?ki, and the Japanese version included the opening theme song "For Little Tail" performed by Kokia before her debut in the music business.
