Judge feedback is anonymous.

  • Gameplay loop was fun and solid. I liked your interpretation of the theme as well! Game mechanics all worked up until encountering a possibly fatal error (I'm not knocking the rating down over the error, don't worry). Art style was decent, not sure about the music choice pairing with the old western theme, but the sound effects fit nicely. Only note: add more stuff if you develop if you develop it further. Nice wave shooter, good work.

Very retro, simple but fun! Map seems to be massive or maybe generated as move around? Cool entry.

Developer

Thanks! Indeed, it is generated as you move

Really enjoy the old retro style, gets a bit laggy after some time but it was fun

Really enjoyed this. It's not dissimilar to a concept I had in the past, but was probably executed in a more fun way.

Music seems weird for the Old West and Reload feels like it takes to long, but very enjoyable!

how big is the map?

Developer

8000x8000, but it only generates chunks around the player

Submitted

Do you plan to keep developing the game? that's a really big map.

Developer

No plans for now. The map is big because we didn´t want to add a border. Anything is possible in the future!

This game doesn't run well in browser - get an error after wave 3 and it hangs the browser on loading - might be because you've created a huge procedurally generated map at the of the game start?

Fun idea tho. It'd be nice to be able to unlock the abilities in game and not have to die to do that.

Great game tho!

Developer

Thanks for playing! The game generates a small part of the map at spawn and generates more chunks as you move to unexplored areas (similar to Minecraft). Unsure why it takes so much time

One probably should be able to access the shop from the normal pause menu inside the game. Besides that, the mechanics are fairly fun although when it comes to game design I'm not sure how good is shooting and losing HP! hahaha

Developer

Hahaha, we considered including "breathing hurts you"

Sadly it does not seem to want to load into the main game scene for me...

Developer

It takes like 15s

The music speed is funny and the sound design, but the composition has nothing to do with the theme of the game, "old western" but the music sounds like a "techno Party in Berlin for Matrix". Anyway the music is good, and the implementation too, just the "genre".... the game is funny, I played 5 times hahaha, congratulations =)

Developer

Ty very much for your feedback! We expected people getting bored before reaching the boss, so hearing you having so much fun makes me glad!

It was really fun to play. The only problem i saw was that the camera movement was a little stuttery

Developer (2 edits)

Thank you very much for playing! I think the camera stuttery is caused because of the bad performance of the game as you progress. Unfortunately, we are not sure why it happens

if you are using Unity and a rigid body for the player add interpolation to it in the options, that fixed it for me
