Can I Run Joe Danger?
Joe Danger is an action casual game from Hello Games, released in 2013. Hello Games both developed and published it. The game supports a single player campaign and competitive multiplayer. Two players can share one screen on a single machine, which is rare enough now to be worth noting. It is old enough that no current GPU generation existed when it shipped, so modern hardware tends to be far past what it can use. Full controller support is present, so nothing needs configuring before a pad works. Its 172 Steam reviews make it a niche release rather than a widely tested one. Windows is the only supported platform, which is what the figures below describe. It is localised into 6 languages according to the store listing. Completionists have 20 achievements to work through. Progress follows the account through Steam Cloud rather than sitting on one disk. Because it hooks into the Steam Workshop, what a player installs on top can matter more for performance than the official figures.
