My brain is telling me that I saw this game awhile back but I don't remember it at all. Loving the look of it. We need more giraffes in games, preferably being alive and well, rather than being blown up. hashtag savetheanimals.

Man that bright screen flash on kill/destroying of boxes makes this game hard to watch.

I'm getting a Castle Crashers/Battleblock Theater/Pit People vibe from this. Mainly because of the giraffe and cartoony art style, I guess.

Is there any connection?

@karlbright: It is a remake/sequel thing to the flash game titled Super Adventure Pals which may be what you are thinking of!

@killagoku: Yeah, I had to stop watching. I get that they want things impactful, but a full screen white flash so often is not the way to go.

This game reminds me of Adventure time in its looks, but it also reminds me of something that The Behemoth would put out.

Paul F Tompkin's IMDB page says he's 5'9", but it also says he played "Short Thug" in Tangled, so I don't know what to think.

Hop and bop is my favorite genre of video game. It's right up there with bump and jump and spray and pray.

Definitely one of the top 5 giraffes in games.

For folks concerned with the screen flash: you can turn it off in the options menu.

@justaconspiracy: Thanks for that. I think the game looks neat but the flashing is way too much for me. I know I can safely buy it now!

This game is just charming as hell. Also, DAMN but that music is really uplifting.

There’s a point around the 12-13 minute mark where Jason yells “Get out of there!” in just such a way that my brain immediately followed up with “Your bars is low!” and I absolutely want a Snoop announcer pack for this game. Yes I know there isn’t an announcer.
