Cowboy Bebop (PlayStation game)

Cowboy Bebop is a PlayStation game by Bandai based on the anime of the same name.

The game was never released outside Japan.

Gameplay
Cowboy Bebop is a scrolling shooter which bears striking similarities to Star Fox for the SNES. The player controls Spike Spiegel's Swordfish II from a third person perspective, chasing a bounty head along a set track through different environments while enemies (spaceships, robots, etc.) attack him. Each stage ends with a boss fight, confronting the bounty head in question.

Between stages, bonus points earned can be spent to purchase upgrades for your ship (faster speed, more powerful ammo, stronger lazer).

Cast
In the same way that characters interacted with the player in Star Fox, series regulars Jet Black, Faye Valentine, and Radical Edward appear on screen to offer advice. Each character is voiced by their original Japanese voice actor.
