Woah Dave! is an extremely bizarre, but nonetheless enjoyable, retro inspired game from Choice Provisions that launched last year. Featuring gameplay that appears to be partially inspired by the classic Mario Bros., it's a good pick up and play kind of game; one that encourages that "just one more try" mentality. Interestingly enough, the developers chose to go in a different direction for its sequel, Space Dave!, and now there is footage showing the new gameplay in action.
Space Dave! eschews the platforming focus of the last game, opting instead to go for a Space Invaders-esque experience. Naturally, the gameplay is just as frantic and fast paced, and it looks like it's shaping up to be just as much fun as its predecessor. Check it out:

Looks frickin' awesome to me!
I definitely enjoy Woah Dave but its lack of online leaderboards hurt the long term appeal for me. This game looks even more fun in terms of gameplay but without leaderboards this time around I will likely wait for a sale on this one too, which is a shame since the game just looks plain fun.
As soon as I saw the "Space Block" in action, I was like "GALAGA SHIP-CAPTURE BEAM!"
Looks really cool. Woah Dave was fun but this looks like it could top off woah Dave. I jus wish they made a local multiplayer so I can play this with my little brother, I would say it wouldn't be too bad of an idea but hey that's just me
Big fan of Woah Dave. Will be getting this!
Wow. I love the way this looks. Considering our love for Galaga in my house, we will definitely be enjoying this together!
Looks amazing, and considering how addicted i was to Woah Dave! i'm expecting to really enjoy it. I love these recreations of retro classics with far more refined and technical gameplay elements added in. From Mario Bros. to Space Invaders/Galaga, i hope we get something else in this vein. Something Bubble Bobble-ish maybe, or perhaps that's too close to Woah Dave, or even something Donkey Kong inspired would get me extra hyped. I'm not a big Pac Man guy but with the way they've been knocking it out of the park they could probably make something awesome out of that too. Asteroids, Bomb Jack, and Dig Dug might be interesting too.
Still waiting for Woah Dave! to come to Europe. Have been playing it on PS Vita and it's quite funny old school style arcade game.
Also wanting European release of the original, but yeah, this looks fun too.
WOAH DAVE! SLOW DOWN! YOU'RE KILLING TOO FAST!
Looking good!
Think I would prefer this too Woah Dave.
The graphics look TOO retro, in my opinion. Overly pixelated sprites have never looked good.
Yep, still waiting for an EU release of Woah Dave. Annoyingly the game was on display at EGX 2014 for people to demo, which lead me to believe that a release was imminent. But, here we are a year and a half later and there's still nothing on its potential release over here. Starting to wonder if Choice Provisions have just given up on ever releasing it here. :/
Judging from the video, it looks awesome!
