About

Back in the distant past (way back - like when “rock and roll” was just rock and fast food was dinner you couldn’t catch), lived two cave dudes named Joe and Mac. Whether it was dinosaur demolition or pterodactyl hang-glidin’, life for the boys was pretty cool.

Cool, that is, until a bogus bunch of neanderthal nerds crashed their village and scared off all the cave-babes. Now the cave-babes are out there - SOMEWHERE, lost and reeeeally lonely… so what are you waitin’ for? It’s up to Joe and Mac to get ‘em back.

* Fight flying pterodactyls in one or two-player simultaneous play.
* 12 cliff-hangin’ levels with more than 6 bonus levels to find…
* Amazing arcade graphics will keep you clubbin’ to find your babes…
* Joe & Mac’s pre-hysterical escapades will keep you comin’ back for more!

Whether it was dinosaur demolition or pterodactyl hang-glidin\u2019, life for the boys was pretty cool.\n\nCool, that is, until a bogus bunch of neanderthal nerds crashed their village and scared off all the cave-babes. Now the cave-babes are out there - SOMEWHERE, lost and reeeeally lonely\u2026 so what are you waitin\u2019 for? It\u2019s up to Joe and Mac to get \u2018em back.\n\n* Fight flying pterodactyls in one or two-player simultaneous play.\n* 12 cliff-hangin\u2019 levels with more than 6 bonus levels to find\u2026\n* Amazing arcade graphics will keep you clubbin\u2019 to find your babes\u2026\n* Joe & Mac\u2019s pre-hysterical escapades will keep you comin\u2019 back for more!",
