Bio
In Space Channel 5, a band of space aliens called the Morolians invades Earth by forcing the populace, through the use of a strange ray gun, to dance uncontrollably. The television news service Space Channel 5 sends its last unaffected reporter, Ulala, to report on the invasion.
After her seniors are afflicted by the invaders' compelling rays, the twenty-two-year-old Ulala is promoted to the network's investigative reporting team. In hopes of demonstrating her journalistic potential, she travels to Space Port 9, the location of the first incident of imposed dancing. There she must accurately imitate the Morolians' dance moves, which forms the basis of the game.
