When Acquire and Sony's PlayStation C.A.M.P.! development program last collaborated, the two produced the Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida series (a third game is already in the works!), recently brought to the States as Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman.

The two Japanese groups debuted a new PSP project, One Million Ton Bara Bara, which looks to combine the cheerful tone of LocoRoco/Patapon with the tiny but characterful sprites of Badman. And the soundtrack, judging from the sample shared in the above trailer, is so cute it hurts my face.

In the portable title, you defend towns from giant hostile airships by breaking up the crafts piece by piece. The mechanics sound a lot like Qix, except you're avoiding missiles, droids, and other countermeasures while you tear the vessesls apart. You can also rescue prisoners trapped in the massive ships.

One Million Ton Bara Bara is slated to release in Japan some time in 2010. You can see more of the game and its characters at its official site.
