to-nya-ight, we'll have a stream of SEGA 32X's TEMPO! And we'll debut a new stream emote, too! That'll be in 7 hours from now, at 8pm EST/5pm PST! Hope to see you then!
aaaand done with the stream! Would I call “Tempo” for the 32X a “good game”? I don’t think so. Did I have a fun time? Yeah! Is it interesting?? A lot!!
My favorite part about it, the thing that made me gasp in excited surprise is that there’s a level themed after electronics, and there are these volume channel visualizers that you can use as platforms. Like these:

and here’s the thing that you might miss if you’re not paying attention: they are SYNCHED UP with the music playing in the background, and DIVIDED BY FM CHANNELS
so there’s a part in the game that you LITERALLY need to listen to the music and wait for a certain instrument to kick in so you know when these volume sliders will go up for that specific channel, that otherwise is silent through the rest of the song, to use them as platforms to go up an alternate route in the level. it’s REALLY COOL!!
The 32X was a system faded to disaster that only had a few games, all developed rushedly to get to the market quickly, and Tempo seems to be a victim of that, too. I’m really curious to play its sequel, Super Tempo on the Saturn, and see what kind of game comes out of the team once they’re on a more powerful system, have more development time, and can see what they think worked and didn’t work on the 32X game.
