The narrative

In the not so distant future is where our story begins. sky scrapers tower over modern Tokyo as futuristic hovering crafts whiz by (think Bladerunner)

We follow the story of Mukoyoyo, who is a young sushi chef from Tokyo, Japan. He strives to impress his boss the master sushi chef Katashi, who is constantly putting Mukoyoyo down and condemning his skills. Mukoyoyo is constantly trying to prove himself, but little does he know he will get the chance to sooner than he thinks.

After a huge argument with his boss, Mukoyoyo is kicked out of Katashi's sushi restaurant and is told by Katashi that he will never make sushi in Tokyo again! Mukoyoyo makes his way home in the pouring rain with his head lowered in shame and defeat.

Meanwhile on the other side of the town there is a commotion happening, a large egg shaped ufo has crash landed into the street, a crowd has formed to investigate while the police turn up and cordon off the area. As the crowd look on in awe the object starts to move progressively more violently, the egg shaped object then blasts open shattering into pieces causing a huge cloud of gas to form. Before the cloud has time to clear tentacles start to rapidly emerge and grab innocent bystanders.

Back on his way home Mukoyoyo starts to hear screams around him and sees people running and hiding, confused Mukoyoyo looks up to see what the crowds are running from. When he looks up he sees a giant one eyed purple monster creating a path of destruction through the city. He sees the monster heading for Katashi's restaurant, the monster smashes the building up and devours its contents. Mukoyoyo looks on in shock and slight amusement at Katashi's misfortune. However seconds later the alien monster recoils and vomits up what he has just eaten. Mukoyoyo then realises that the monster must be allergic to sushi, and so he takes the initiative and steps up to the job of saving Tokyo and possibly the world from the alien threat!

Mukoyoyo runs to his hover craft and here is were the player takes control, firing sushi at the monster to save the city from destruction.


On successfully completing the game, Mukoyoyo becomes the most famous sushi chef in all of Tokyo and with Katashi's restaurant destroyed Mukoyoyo hires Katashi as a dish cleaner for Mukoyoyo's new sushi restaurant.
