Amazing game! While I was playing I was very curious about what kind of weapons I would find and how I could connect them. What if I equipped 5 x2 dice, and one rocketlauncher? I like that you made it meaningful to watch what dice you have rolled, and that you should not just blindly shoot. For example, if I had rolled a x2 dice I should not just try to aim at the enemy, but stay behind cover until I rolled something else. I think the rolling of the dice fits very well to the western theme and the reloading of the revolver. Unfortunately my run was ended by instantly being killed by some fish after spawning.

A fun Nuclear Throne-like game. The use of dice comes really naturally and the attacks feel impactful. Awesome seeing more games made in Godot.

If a rat came at me with a D6 and a revolver I would poop blood.

Really nice to see such love for Nuclear Throne so that you could capture it in a game of your own. Really tough game from the get go though, nice for that "just one more try" felling :)

That was a cute game, I like the random mechanic of the gun. I wish there was some music playing in the background though hehe

This game really captured that nuclear throne vibe. I'm really amazed how much work was put into this for a game jam entry.

Great game! The gimmick is so unique. I just want to let you know that sometimes enemies and cacti spawn out of bounds, though.

I <3 the reload animation!

Loved the art style and gameplay is really solid!

Solid. 15/15 full marks. You did it. Game idea, clear. Art understandable, themed and neat, game juice well done, sound effects great! About the only thing I wished was maybe text on the dice telling me name of shot, and some more music. Great Job.

Easily best game I've played so far. Just needs a killer western soundtrack and I'd pay 20 bucks for this on Steam. Looking between the enemies and what dice roll you currently have and strategizing makes for some killer gameplay. Crazy good

Loved the art and the whole feel of the game, you did an awesome job creating atmosphere between the guitar stingers, the fantastic graphics, and details like the tumbleweeds!

Absolutely amazing! I'm adding this to my personal collection! I would love to see more music in the future if you ever continue to work on the game!

Excellent game. Very nice job. With a bit more variety in the enemies and levels you could easily sell this game.
