Activision’s Nintendo DS and Wii title, Space Camp, is hitting retail in June. Much to my dismay, I’ve learned that Space Camp isn’t the videogame spiritual successor to Space Jam. It does not have Michael Jordan, Marvin the Martian, Bill Murray, or the sport basketball. But it does have an astronaut of sorts — and I’m about two percent sure the Grammy Award winning film had that.
So, okay, Space Camp is about some crazy dude who wants to be an astronaut. He’s managed to get himself to the moon and your goal is to get him back by completing a variety of tasks such as “scientific experimentation,” killing aliens, shooting rocks, pooping in low gravity, and “controlling spacecraft.”
A party mode and cooperative multiplayer are, naturally, confirmed so get your waggle wrists loose in advance. Hit the break for the press release and check out the gallery for some screenshots. The game looks thrilling.
