...Waiting for questers...

I had to post this 'cuz I just saw "0 comments" and it's the first time I've seen that in a while.

Anyway, I don't know anything about this game, but it can't be that hard to turn money pickups into something other than dollar signs.

Hey that music from the lobby "waiting for all players to ready up part" sounds real similar to a beat by Dangerdoom. I think its Spacehoes Coast to Coast. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz9AfrfZYUE

I've tried reloading this page a few times and I just can't get the video to play no matter what. Downloading works though so I'll resort to that.

Haha, same here. That second hat they tried on made the robber look a lot like Freddy Kruger, which was dope.

@schlookum: It sounds similar to whatever he sampled. I don't think Dangermouse wrote and performed that.

Interesting look to this game but glad when I saw it on steamgifts that I didn't get into it as feels like with it being multiplayer only that it'd get through all of it pretty quick around here as there's not too much to it from the look of it.

Really freaking strange to hear the music from the dvds from Something Weird Video in this game. Link goes to the promo of their library of films at the start of the dvds - video thx to youtube.

I think the main problems with this game is it to slow and not moment to moment enough

With something like bomberman you are under constant threat and it feels like everything counts. This just seems to take forever and getting hit barely maters

Is it just me, or is the soundtrack for this game ripped right out of the 1967 Spider-Man cartoon?

The idea of this game isn't bad but it seems *way* too slow-paced for what it is. Oh well.

Yup, thats Morning Broadway alright, Keith Mansfield was a master of Orchestrated television themes in the UK, so his music appears in a lot of libraries of cheap music for content producers to use. He's a favorite for a few producers. Danger Mouse has used him a few times, most recently his track "Junior Jet Set" was used by Danger Mouse for "Run(I'm A Natural Disaster)" by Gnarles Barkley. Mansfield is probably most known for his track "Funky Fanfare" which some might recognize from "Old School Rules" on the Danger Doom album, or as "the Quick Hits music" from Sklarbro Country(dont ask why i know all this information about a UK television theme producer). Also, after listening to more of the music in this quicklook, i wouldn't be surprised to find out that most of the songs are culled from the KPM library.

BUT, back on topic. How did this game get away with calling the bank"Dollar Bank"? There is a real bank chain called that in the ohio/pa area. Probably too reigonal for anyone to care. But still a total mindfuck for anyone that lives near a Dollar Bank.
