How does the game fit the theme?
No bullet fired will ever miss a target, therefore "nothing can go wrong". Also includes those fired by your enemies.

How has this only got 3.6 on gameplay that’s insanely underrated
This is an EXTREMELY impressive entry, this is made by one person makes it eaven crazier! the concept is insanely innovative! this feels like matric X bullettrain! theres something so satzisfying about it! Be proud of yourself man! i think i would have gone about it in more like a level ish way… if you plan to keep working on this ( really do consider that) you could make the game like it is rn into like an infinite mode! those two would go along well i imagine!
Lol I like the pun in the title. It's a pretty fun game and I found it funny how the enemies can just kill each other with their own guns. Pretty nice game overall man, nice entry :)
This game ... just woa, super fun, you really had me spending a good amount of time playing your game, I really love the mechanic where the bullet chase you and having to take advantages of enemy corner so the bullet won't hit you and the level design is really good, balance , challenging and fun.
The only bug I have counter was when I died at, the game just froze
And some improvement on the graphic would be splendid
Overall greattt job really had some fun 👍
Thank you! The freezing is a Firefox specific issue, or so I think, it's very inconsistent for me for some reason.
Super fun! I like the Hotline miami vibe. The mechanic of bullet that chase is super fresh and interesting, there's a lot to do with it i think. Was a bit hard for me and game froze when I lost my last life. I really really like the vibe though, thanks for making this
Thank you so much for playing!
The game freezing is a known issue on Firefox browsers, I only discovered it recently as well. You didn't miss much though, it just shows a game over screen and then sends you back to the main menu.
Cool game! Very original, but it was too difficult for me, I felt like the character got stuck all the time.
Oof, sorry about that, the high movement speed combined with square tiles don't mix very well. I hope you enjoyed anyway! Thanks for playing!
Interesting idea.
Covers are temporary. dodging is impossible.
The only thing that can stop a bullet is a body.
It's like a puzzle-action game.
If only I could come up with taglines like these. lol
Thanks for playing!
Pretty unique take with homing bullets and one shot per gun, awesomely fun gameplay though I died at at the fifth-ish level : P
Thanks! You might have gotten unlucky with a hard level right away, but it seems you still did pretty well for a first run!
Very smooth gameplay. Were you inspired by Hotline Miami?
Thank you! Yes, I tried to recreate the fast-paced gameplay of HM and used some of its sprites and animations as reference for the player and enemies.
At first glance I thought it was Hotline Miami style, but it turned out to be a very fun puzzle game
This game is challenging but it's a really cool concept! Requires strategy which I like a lot, and it's fun when the enemies shoot each other. Great work!
WOW!! Its So FUN!!!!!!! Nice Game design and perfect level design!! So cooool!! this game's sense of speed is make me more Fun!! SO NICE!!!!
That's really high praise! Thank you so much!!
Love this take on the theme! I found it quite hard, and I wish there wasn't a lives system so I could spend time experimenting with solutions in each level without having to replay the early ones. Regardless, I had a lot of fun with this one!
I'm absolute fan of western setting! Glad you choosen it! Game is a bit hard for me, maybe I'm too old to react fast :D
It's a great idea. There were times when I tried to dodge the bullets but they ended up hitting another enemy instead. LOL
Very interesting idea, it almost plays more like a puzzle game in that you have to figure out the best route, and the (slightly too hard) execution needed to actually follow through made it more fun too imo
I really like the concept! The game reminds me a bit of Hotline Miami, you captured the difficulty aspect very well! What's slightly unfair is that you don't really get time to understand the level and plan out how to beat it. You have to just run in and hope you get it right. But I really enjoyed playing! Good job!
That's something I thought about as well. It would be better if, like Hotline Miami, you could play a level many times to get a good pathing, but then it would ruin the arcadey high score chase I was going for imo. Thanks for the feedback!
Innovative idea and a good one but there's something that I don't understand that why the enemy bullet sometimes chooses the enemy instead of player.
Thanks for the kind words!
Sometimes an enemy just stands in the path of the bullet, and bullets also change their target mid-flight if they see a closer target. This is intended so you don't immediately die when you get spotted, but you have a chance to redirect it in your favor.
It's a pretty cool concept that I've not seen before, the puzzles are well thought out, the moving train theme is also very cool
<3
If hotline miami was a puzzle game ! Nice job ! I really enjoyed it, I would like to receive more lives each level, cause it is hard xD
Also, music would make the game perfect, it is the only thing missing for me
"If hotline miami was a puzzle game" That's a great tagline! Thank you for playing!
