That background music by itself is enough to kill the game.

Glad to know the first thing you think of when you see cute anthropomorphic animals is breeding.

Yes.    

The game doesn't look terrible, but it doesn't require 23 minutes to explain all the intricacies of bouncing a panda around collecting fruit.  Especially when you keep loading up the same level. 
 
Also, wtf is with the weird hex profile name?

Glad that Giantbomb does find the smaller guys to demonstrate what they have been working on. That being said, yup, bouncing animals going after fruit. Could be fun one time through but after that, this should be developed for a mobile device so it can be available on the go. Okay at best.

I think all the "pulling a Brad" talk has given him a complex about playing badly on QLs. I noticed at least three self-deprecating jokes about not being able to keep up with the game's producer, on his very first time playing. Brad man, don't listen to them haters, you're just fine. Look at Ryan, he had a half-hour segment devoted to his incompetence at Dante's Inferno.

I would play through this once and never touch it again, wouldnt be willing to pay more than 400 points from what i saw, I know that sounds a bit harsh but got busted with lazy raiders, couple of hours play and i am done with the game and wondering where my points went.

No thanks, not my kind of game.  The guy driving is mad boring to listen to.  I like it better when the GB guys are in the driver's seat.  Or when they do EX QL's involving lots of alcohol.

I think it's stupid that there are games still being made that only offer local multiplayer! Most people have an internet connection now, so any new games that have multiplayer should be required to have online play.

That was so incredibly boring. Game is largely uninteresting, they played the same level over and over, and 100,000 ≠ 1,000,000.

He was off by 1 zero, give the guy a break!
 
With that said, this game seemed alright for a quick time waster, but it's not really my thing.
