I got to round 16. I liked the music and enjoyed ramboing with my pistol. Cool little pistol spin animation too :D

Developer

Thank you so much! The pistol spin was one of the first things we added in almost as a placeholder but we realized it's too perfect LOL

This one was really fun and I can see how it could get addicting!! My first few attempts I tried to shoot quickly to move fast & take out enemies but that ended up being my downfall. A little slower and more calculated is the way to go in this one :)

Developer

Definitely best to move strategically, I was launching myself into enemies at first lmao. Thanks a bunch for the feedback!

Loved it! I made it to the endless round and earned 42500 score.

I wouldn't say that this fits the theme perfectly, but aside from that, I really can't complain about the game itself. Great work!

The music is great and very 8-bit (Bayou Billy OST feel), and I really liked the upgrade choice after each wave (although I kept getting the same options after a bit). The only thing that felt odd was having shooting and movement tied together. Nice entry.

Developer

Honored to be compared to such a classic, good ear I did use the NES sound chip for this soundtrack! Would love to have added more powerups, maybe if we continue w the game later on. The movement being tied to click was brought up through the prerequisite, definitely takes a second to master, thanks tons for the feedback!

I managed to make it to 16th wave. The game is super enjoyable, i love it ! All feels perfect, well polished. Gampley and graphics are really one of the best I played here. Some details like palette change are sweet. The idea of double floating cowboy hats acting as a shield is great. Good job :)

Developer

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked the palette swaps as it was something we really wanted to add even before the jam started.

The mechanics are fun and the idea is great, I just wish the walls were less bouncy, doesn't remind me much of space too. Graphics and music wise, it's great!

Overall, great game!

Developer

Thank you so much! The bouncy walls are definitely tricky and hard to maneuver so we appreciate your feedback!

not the strongest on theme, it feels more like a cowboy game that has space stuff in it than a space game, but the presentation is awesome

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! Definitely strayed away from the original theme idea a bit lol but I'm glad you liked the presentation!
