About
A mysterious entity has risen from the shadows, corrupting everything he touches. Multiple timelines and worlds have been taken over, frozen in time. You, a lone microfolk with no name is tasked by Gatekeeper Berry and his legion of Berry the Bears to save the universe. Explore different timelines, empty vending machines and in due time, restore time itself. This won't be an easy task, E.D knows you're out to stop him and has unleashed his army of goons to send you to your grave. Will you be able to put an end to this edgy time lord's reign of terror?
Dave.EXE is a singleplayer comedy horror game inspired by many asymmetrical horror games of recent time. You must explore different timelines, emptying soda machines of their contents and escaping with your life against a randomly selected monster, map and random event.
The Nothingness is your home now. This place is where the Berry the Bears reside, offering quests, opportunities and plenty of clothes to shop for to make your stay more comfortable. Collect coins, scrap and whatever you can find to unlock these cosmetics as well as gadgets and charms to buff up your character. Mix and match different builds to create the perfect playstyle for you!
MANY WORLDS TO EXPLORE - From futuristic cities, to medieval times, to 1980s small town America, there are many different timelines to explore!
CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION - Collect coins and unlock different cosmetics to customize your little microwave fellow. You can even unlock different skins for the enemies you encounter in the timelines!
ENDLESS GAMEPLAY LOOP - Run, hide and utilize the environment to evade the horrors that stalk you. With many maps to explore, enemies to encounter and random events to spice up every round, you'll find yourself coming back for more!
MANY DIFFERENT PLAYSTYLES - Do you want to equip your character with buffs that grant you SPEED, maybe one for stealthily evading enemies more effectively or even a build that puts you in danger but rewards you with lots of coins for your daredevil nature. With many difficulty modifiers, charms and items to use, you will be able to handle each and every encounter the way you want to!
QUESTS FOR THE ERRAND LOVERS - Take on different quests given to you by the various inhabitants of the Nothingness. There's more to life than just looting old vending machines to save the world. Help a fellow Berry out with their troubles and get some nice rewards to fund your shopaholic tendencies.

Dave.exe; a game that has been in patreon exclusive early access for a while, now finally on steam. The gameplay loop is fun and a different experience every time, each map is unique and provide variety, the items and owo/uwu charms provided by the blacksmith are all thought out, and best of all: the characters. Each character in the game has there own charm, weather they be an ally or an enemy. All though load times are a pain, you eventually get used to it. 10/10 game, would deeply recommend to those who enjoy comedic horror.
Love the comedy and horror elements in this game i HIGHLY Recommend this game :D
As a long-time fan of Dave Microwave Games on GameJolt, not being able to get this via Patreon, I will say that this is definitely worth my wait! The characters (especially characters from past projects), humor, and the intensity is everything that I enjoy all in this long running game. Can't wait till the full game is ready for the dinner table!
this game was awesome make more patchnotes and updates
I love this game to death! Have been following this game's development for the 6 years its been in development and its come so far since it's time as a Pateron-only exclusive! The game has a lot of enemies that vary in difficulty and mechanics to keep you on your toes depending on who you get on a map. There's even random events that could very much throw a wrench in your plans. Which is awesome, it keeps you aware and watching over your shoulder! It's got a very colorful cast of enemy characters! There's even some items that are extremely helpful to get a timeline over with sooner or to evade enemies, and charms you can get that can either aid you in your timeline quest or give you an extra challenge for the masochists! Overall? in my own bias opinion. Its a 10/10. Its early access so there is plenty of more content to come! Can't wait to see this game in its full glory! Lots of love to the devs of this amazing project!
I really enjoy playing this game it it very fun and i love the way that every level has random baddies that keep the game exciting and scary. I do not really have any complaints as the game runs very smooth with no problems at all. If you really like playing Dead by daylight like me then i really suggest that you get this game. Dave you did a excellent job and i hope to see more from this game. I cant wait to make Youtube videos on this. All of the monsters are very intresting and have different gameplay that i dont see alot of games having.There are so many things to do like for example if you to to the beach there are quest there that you can do to get charms that aid you in your gameplay by doing passive things like adding more run speed, etc. There is also a variety of cosmetics that make you look cool and badass. There is also LORE pages which is just amazing. overall this game gets a 10/10.
Dave.EXE is a self-insert game about it's creator, DaveMicrowavesGames. You play as a Microfolk, A sentient humanoid microwave, who is tasked with traveling between timelines to get... soda from vending machines while being hunted by one of the many monsters from Daves previous games, games of his friends, and original characters, all while Dave's evil doppelganger, EDGY DAVE, get's closer. The gameplay is similar to dead by daylight, but with a single player twist. It's just you, the monster, and the vending machines. A lot of monsters are simple. They see you? They chase you, with some sort of gimmick, some are a bit more complicated, like only activating when your phone rings, or always having your location, but being slower than you. There are a staggering amount of enemies to fight, to the point that I have not yet seen every one yet, let alone gotten good at, even after 10 hours. There is also events, which can range from "Everything is faster" to "The lights are off" to "Literally just No One Escapes Death from dead by daylight". These also aid in keeping the gameplay loop from getting too repetitive. Of course, You aren't doing this solely for the fun of it all (although you really should be), While exploring timelines and fighting for your life, You will be collecting coins and tickets, which you can spend on cosmetics. The cosmetics range from "Standard clothing" to "Obviously a reference" to "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is that hatsune miku?!?!?!?!?", So if you want to grind, you can give your microwave a maid outfit with Kasane Tetos hair, or james sunderlands outfit from silent hill. And there's plenty I haven't mentioned, Such as challenges you can complete for cash and bragging rights, and OwO charms, which can give you buffs while traveling the timelines, and the lore pages you can find to learn more about the story of each of the characters you can encounter. While it's still rough around the edges, (The loading times are long, and I would kill for a sprint toggle button), It is a fun time, and I will definitely be playing more, and with the game having been in development for six years now, I don't believe the developer plans to stop now. So maybe try it out, and hear edgy dave say 80 swear words in the span of 13 seconds. (As this game is heavily referential to the creators previous works, you will obviously get more from the experience if you get the references. It's not required, however, you can still enjoy this game without knowing who The First or Bunky is.)
Dave.EXE is really fun i love the comedy its really funny and im fan of the art style this game has so i really recommend this is u like dbd like games with some comedy
I've been following this game's development from the very start, and Dave's development journey for even longer. While I never got to play this game myself, I have been anticipating this release for over half a decade now. While I was initially worried I wouldn't be able to play due to my relatively weak laptop, I got it working, and safe to say after 50-60 hours in less than a week, this game is everything I could've possibly hoped for and even more. While I have my gripes, such as certain aspects that lack beginner-friendless and the somewhat poor optimization with very long loading screens, these are overall weak flaws that didn't personally hinder my enjoyment in any way. If you are looking for a silly, goofy, yet still sometimes scary horror game with plenty of things to do, enemies to encounter, and a general high amount of replayability, I cannot recommend this game enough.
Pretty fun and challenging game. I'm genuinely surprised how much I've been enjoying this game like its quite a simple idea which is pretty much just pve asym but by definition its technically not an asym so.... My main complaints are really just Loading times which aren't even that bad for me but it is noticeably long, and it needs more options especially audio ones for dialogue and other stuff but considering the game being early access things can change
