Developer Ratata Arts has met their crowdfunding goals for independently-developed rhythm game Ratatan, published by Red Arts Games in France.

Previously announced under the title “Project JabberWocky,” the Windows PC title is produced by Kazuto Sakajiri, directed by Patapon designer Hiroyuki Kotani, and art illustrated by Nelnal. Ratatan features music by Patapon sound designer Kemmei Adachi. A preview of three tracks are streaming on SoundCloud.

The shanty airship Fortrun loves to sing, drawing all manner of creatures to hum his tune "Fortrun's Theme." "Pirates Of The Paraddean" attends the Swashbuckling Mantaneers and their leader Captain Barbatoid. The Stinger Dingers pirates and their life of crime is set to "Bad Day On Yeehawler Mountain."

The Kickstarter funding campaign will run until September 1st. A teaser trailer can be viewed on the developer's YouTube channel. Backer rewards include digital, vinyl, and compact disc copies of the soundtrack album.
