I read Dave and Jeff as David Jaffe.

Wow, this seems really cool. I wonder if it gets super hard near the end 'cause some of that looked a little intense.
AllanIcemanon June 19, 2009 at 9:28 a.m.
More Dave!

Welcome, Dave.

$10 you say? Sounds like a deal.
Looks like it's got a lot of charm.

You can't throw a ball through the posts in rugby either.

I might have to get this but I only got 1550 points.

Looks pretty frantic, and the style is really cool. If I wasn't absolute crap at these sorts of games, I'd consider picking it up.

Dave should be in more Quick Looks but this game is looking real cool to me.
Jimboon June 19, 2009 at 9:42 a.m.
Man, I haven't enjoyed a game this much since Cannon Fodder on my Acorn Archimedes!

I'm not super-into the character design or the general gameplay of this game but I do love the retro style and the craziness of all the enemies coming at you and the hundreds of blocks exploding around you.
