Good
Thanks 🙏
Feels great to play and sufficiently fulfills the theme! Well done!
Thank you 🤩
spin mechanics is simple but very genius! cool artworks and western vibe at all.
Thanks for playing! ☺️
Loved this game! Took me a bit to figure out that you have to go around the enemy but after that loved it :D
Thank you!
Very good game, I had a blast playing it :D
I liked the spin of the theme you went with, but also the artwork was great. I think there is a bug from webgl, I cant see the sprites of people, only black rectangles.
Overall, a wonderful game, gj
Thanks for playing! BTW what browser have you used to encounter this bug? Haven’t heard about it yet.
Chrome
Okay thanks
This is my favorite lasso game so far. The game mechanic of having to walk around the bandits to tie them up is very enjoyable and makes perfect narrative sense . The art is comedic and readable, and having a group of guys you and defending made me invested. Lassoing around multiple guys is also just a great expansion of the core, and is very balanced. Minor gripe is that the tutorial like dialog repeats every time you die, slowing down the restarts a lot. Congrats on submitting!
Oh thank you for your kind words! 😎
really liked it ,reminded me of a minigame from the madagascar i used to play
Thank you 🦁
Neat game. I like that the free enemies can cut their captured allies loose. The intro is a bit long and could use with a way to speed it up, such as click to advance. With it being replayed every time you die, I'd prefer an option to skip, or only see a shortened version, on subsequent starts. I also ran into the bug with the lasso touching a cactus locking the game.
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!
Love the concept my main issue was that cutscene was cool but watching it every time I died drove me to stop playing but I love the gameplay its very clever.
Thanks for playing! Haha, I frantically put in the cutscene in last hour before the submission so I’m surprised it even works, but you are right, a way to skip would be really nice. 😎
Ah, another game with cacti, alas in a supporting role :) Great game, love how you can lasso multiple bandints at once! Unfortuneately it kept crashing for me :(
index.js:9 Uncaught RuntimeError: null function or function signature mismatch
Thanks for playing! Sorry for the crashes, there’s not much I can do now. Maybe in a future patch… Gonna play your cacti game now.
For some reason I was trying to lassoing the civilians... Maybe be they are not so innocent after all?
Oh they are totally innocent! 😇
This game was awesome! I liked the artwork, animations, and the main mechanic was engaging. It was satisfying to walk around the enemies and watch the bar go up. Well done!
Thank you! I see that we’ve both made quite similarly themed games! 😆
This is fun! Simple, engaging, and the art is great
Thank you 😌
It feels nice to catch multiple bandits at once :D
Right? 😆 Originally I wanted to build the whole game around collecting higher scores when you capture multiple bandits at once! Maybe in a sequel or something…
This was fun. The animations and sound effects make it feel very lively. The game unfortunately crashed twice while I was playing (web, it seemed like when a line between two bandits crossed a cactus the game would freeze), but I enjoyed what I was able to play!
Thanks a lot for playing and sorry for the crashes 😇. I fixed everything I could in time, seems like you found more loopholes in the game… 😆
Catching bandits are really feels good. There is one bug i guess, when i trying to catch a bandit accidently the other bandits interact with shackle and its breaking the game i guess im not sure.
I’m not sure exactly what you mean. But thanks a lot for playing!
Fun game. The art is cute and its a good fit with the theme. I like that you need to loop them with the lasso and then loop around to subdue them. Its a double loop!
It is a double loop! Maybe the game should be called Double Loop Sherrif heh. 🤣
Cool idea that you have to keep an eye on old wave bandits so they wont get released by new ones.
Yes that kind of emerged by itself! Originally I wanted to delete the old bandits once a new wave starts and also give you high scores but I ran out of time. 🤷
Good game mate!
Thank you!
Very fun! Love chaining the lasso! Glad to see some other lasso-type games!
Thank you! I suspect there’s gonna be a ton of lasso games. 🤩
