The Wild Outback is a wild western themed, top-down shooter game in which you fight as one of a group of cowboys that defend against an alien invasion! Along the journey, you will fight against cowboy thugs, robots, mutant animals, and paranormal haunted enemies! You don't know what to expect when everything is running wild and rampant in The Wild Outback!
This game is now in its beta phase and could use all the playtesting it can get! Development has lasted about 18 months for this game so far!
Originally made by a group of 3 for a school project, this game was kept alive after the team disbandment by only one individual. What kept this project alive was passion for game development which had led to much more care to the detail and balancing of the game, as well as keeping the overall gameplay flow steady and not overly complicated!
The game is fairly arcade-like and simple with not a lot of complexity to its features. You are able to select characters for most of the levels, and each character has different weapons and stats! This game was optimized for newer players with its lower difficulty! Many changes were made quickly before this release as to help playtesters adapt to the controls and how the game works.
