Reception
N64 Magazine noted the difficulty of use in English "without any English instructions", but that "as Solid Gear ably demonstrates, Dezaemon is perfectly capable of producing a commercial-standard shooter", and that "given an English translation...we'd buy it just for the music editor." While IGN64 did not give it a full review, their coverage called it a "high quality creativity app" and placed it second on their list of "Top Nintendo 64 Imports" after Sin & Punishment, lamenting that Nintendo did not give it a US release.
