Space-Net: Cosmo Red and Cosmo Blue



Space-Net: Cosmo Red and Cosmo Blue (Japanese: スペースネット コスモレッド/スペースネット コスモブルー) are a pair of video games and the spiritual successors to Sanrio Timenet: Kako-Hen and Mirai-Hen; sharing some characters and jingles from that game. They were developed and published by Imagineer (Timenet development team).

Development
Prior to release, the games were given the tentative names Space-Net: SN-01 (Japanese: スペースネット　SN-01) and Space-Net SN-02 (Japanese: スペースネット　SN-02) at Nintendo Space World 2000, before the names Cosmo Red and Blue were finalised. As discovered by a leak online, a third version called Space-Net: Cosmo Neo was also planned, but never released.

Story and gameplay
As a peace agent and member of the ISNA (International Space-Net Agency); lead by agent Angie, the player must fulfil the needs of many extra-terrestrial citizens to bring peace. In particular, they must also protect these citizens from a mysterious legion known as the Crackers. Another aim is to find orbs and bring them to the planet's station. The player has a rival called Kaito.

The player explores the Rainbow System; a galaxy of planets based on different colours, and fights enemies. Instead of simply defeating them, the player can use a communication badge to let them join their team. The player is given their own spaceship (depending on the version), with an AI mascot. The player uses this ship to warp to stations on other planets.
