As a fan of breakdancing, I chuckled when Jeff brought up actual terminology.

Also, I'll buy this when it goes on sale. Even better, let me buy the OST for $5 so I get what I want the most without having to play the game to hear it.

Cool looking game, but man - I sorta got bored while watching the video. And not like, at the end of the video. :(

I think I've soured on dual Joystck shooters. It's awesome that this one looks so sharp and is procedurally generated though. Y'all should Quick Look more indie games, as far as I'm concerned. May I suggest Fortune Summoners?

This was at the Eurogamer Expo indie arcade last year. It plays so damned smooth on a joypad, on keyboard it's a bitch.

If you understood everything that was said between 1 second and 1 minute, is that a good or bad thing?

This totally reminds me of Cannon Fodder which is a good thing. Especially the 'replace dead dudes with new recruits thing'.

Cannon Fodder was one of my early game "greats". "Joops" was always one of the first characters on your team.

@Woodroez: No, but that game was effin awesome and I still have my copy!

@envane: That could be it, but I think it may actually be the original Alien Syndrome, which someone mentioned earlier.

There are two many twin-stick shooters and I don't like this game's art style, but at least Pineapple Smash Crew looks like it has some pretty neat ideas.

This is repetitive, but what the hell, I like it. The game's just fun on a basic level, even if it is really short on variety.

This is the type of quick look I really like. A new type of game that the guys can have some simple fun with. Great quick-look and the game looks pretty decent too. Can you get this for the ipad ?

The music seems totally bangin', but The Binding of Isaac seems like a better randomly generated dual-joystick shooter, so I am content to keep playing that.

I picked this up after watching the QL. Got to say it's incredibly fun running and shooting everything.

It could do with a little more depth, but from the look of things the guy who made it is already planning a ton of new features.

Go to your brother.

Kill him with your gun.

Leave him there in his uniform,

Dying in the sun.
