If while watching the Californication video by Red Hot Chili Peppers, you dreamed of playing the game presented on the screen, now it is possible! One of the band’s fans just created it and made it available for the rest of the fans!
The Red Hot Chili Peppers’s Californication was founded over 23 years ago. It entered the charts almost immediately and became a hit. The music video for the song was also very popular. It was directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, and in it we can see a video game in which the main characters are members of the group and they engage in various activities. All the action takes place in virtual California. This is by far the group’s most popular video, with over 920 million views on youtube as of now. Probably everyone who saw this video in the 90s and later also wanted to try their hand at a similar game. Thanks to Miquel Camps Orteza it is possible!
I wanted to play this game so badly! It’s 2022 and I haven’t seen anyone create it, so I challenged myself to do it myself. I picked some epic moments from the music video and transformed into 7 levels, each with different game mechanics, I hope fans will like it. – says the creator.
The design looks interesting and it is definitely a fun way to spend half an hour. For understandable reasons, the download doesn’t include music, but there are buttons in the game to play Californication or other songs in your browser. It may all look a bit primitive, but it’s undeniably interesting to control something we’ve once watched on MTV. Anyone who loves this song and feels nostalgic about it will surely be satisfied with the result. Californication can be downloaded for free here. It is currently available for PC, Mac and Android.
Finally, it’s worth remembering the original music video !
