GROOVE COASTER The Next-Gen Groove Game Now Available from the App Store
Available for download from the App Store™, this next-gen groove game is the latest project by Reisuke Ishida, creator of the internationally award-winning SPACE INVADERS INFINITY GENE™. While GROOVE COASTER shares some of the core “DNA” with its predecessor, it adds intuitive one-finger controls and a rollercoaster-style sense of twisting, turning exhilaration.
A Rollercoaster with Groove!
In GROOVE COASTER, players follow their in-game avatar on a high-speed journey along a fantastical 3D rollercoaster track. Carefully timed taps, flicks, swipes, and other interactions with approaching targets unleash a variety of lush audiovisual effects, creating a layered symphony of sound. Bringing to mind the very best in music video graphics, each stage in GROOVE COASTER has been painstakingly designed to represent the feel of the song to the fullest extent possible, drawing the player into an involving world of synesthesia.
GROOVE COASTER also includes a number of elements that mature and develop as the player progresses through the game; new player avatars, in-game skin designs, and other items can all be acquired through extended play. The game also boasts a special stage—entitled “The Beginning”—that develops differently for each player.
Game Center Compatible! Social Interactions Enhance Play
GROOVE COASTER is Game Center compatible, with unlockable achievements and high score rankings that allow players to complete with rivals across the globe. Furthermore, adding GROOVE COASTER friends introduces changes into “The Beginning” special stage, rewarding interaction with others.
Crowd-Pleasing Sound!
Intended to suit the widest audience possible, the music included covers a wide spectrum, from rock and pop to hip-hop and techno. Released simultaneously with the game, the GROOVE COASTER Original Soundtrack is also available for download via the iTunes Store®. Click here to view the soundtrack for free.
TAITO will continue to release high-quality games that take full advantage of the iPhone and iPod touch’s individual characteristics.

became popular among snipers and artillery specialists, for whom the ability to deliver a devastating
initial strike is worth more than a few sheets of extra armor.
ISV-Prototype
The ISV-Prototype was never mass-produced, and only a handful is known to exist. Built to push the
limits of military-grade hover units, the ISV-Prototype is able to field weaponry comparable to land-
based wanzers while still retaining the ability to move across impassable terrain.
