UPDATE Thank you for all the awesome feedback! We're turning this entry into a full game called Rhythm Ranger. Check out our website at http://rhythmranger.com
[DESCRIPTION]
A Western rhythm game!
You are Lefty the bounty hunter. Use your epic skills to take on a deadly crew of train robbers. Your weapon: Rock Paper Scissors!
[HOW TO PLAY]
Left Arrow - Rock Up Arrow - Paper Right Arrow - Scissors
An "attack" happens when your hand and one of your opponent's hands are facing each other. If you win, your opponent loses a point. If you lose, you lose a point. Whoever loses all their points first is instantly vaporized.
Watch out! Bandits can use either hand, and some can even regenerate their points with a bandit shout!
[KNOWN ISSUES]
These are issues we know about. They are fixed in the post-jam version.
- Very rarely, the enemy actions will go out of beat. - When the music loops, the enemies have a chance to stop moving completely.

Wow... just wow, magical and that muzak!, enjoyed the humour as well.
This is really worth checking out! It was a little hard to catch the RPS symbols though: it felt like playing a rhythm game without the falling symbols to prompt me. The game felt amazing, though, so it was still fun to study my opponent carefully.
This is amazing! Perfect match for the theme, the music is integral to the gameplay, the graphics and animations are awesome, I knew intuitively what I should be doing as I played, the difficulty ramped up appropriately at each stage. I want to keep playing this game, will be adding it to my bookmarks!
Loved the game! I liked the way the music fits with the cowboys movements! The game is absolutely intuitive. Loved the idea and the general application. The art is unquestionable, from the animations until the effect that the sun causes when it reaches the plateaus, and by the way, this west ambientation really attracts me! Even the tittle is genial! I personally love The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Congratulations again for all the team, you really reached it! Totaly five stars! -Gabriel Fern
Fantastic game! Everything works well together - the art, the music, the game play. I like the way you run across the trains to get to the next opponent. Great job.
Really great entry! Awesome graphics, music and mechanic. Great interpretation of the theme. Took me a minute to recognize how I was supposed to play but once I got it I had fun.
Oh man, this is the best game I've played yet. - The gameplay is so funny - It has sooo nice pixel art and graphical effects. - The music, characters and environment build a perfect cowboy, wild-west feeling - The game fits perfectly to the theme
My gosh, you make rock paper scisors a true game, fun and deep, GFX& music are stunning,I love the light scatering shader on the monument valley's rocks, my favourite entry ! Animation are gorgeous. Awesome, nothing else to say.
Purely gorgeous, the art is amazing, the music and sounds are amazing, it feels really great to play and the theme is fully respected. A very polished game, congratulations!
Wow!!! The music, the sounds, the graphics, the animation - I'm totally stunned. That game is an example of what mood in game means. Really, really, really great! Thanks for doing that game!
Absolutely solid entry. A very fascinating take on the rhythm game genre. Instead of punishing the player for not hitting the keys, I like the fact that it actually helps. The woo was kind of annoying...especially since it heals them.
Pattern recognition was a little hard to do, and I kind of would have liked having practice mode in there. Kind of like Parappa the Rapper, where you can practice a little bit to repeat the song's pattern. Makes the memorization part a lot less strenuous.
This is amazing! I love how it's not only a rock paper scissors game with a twist, it's also a rhythm game with a twist. Great graphics, great sound...everything is great. The learning curve is really good on this one. Congratulations!
Wow! My instant favorite, seriosuly. I love the music, the animations, how some of them "fight" with both hands. The names of the characters, and the rythm mechanic. Is amazing how something as easy as a copy the pattern game, with the RPS modifier becomes something that cool. The only thing I would say is that there is a point wher you don't want to memorize so many movements and its almost imposible to play just reacting at what the show you before they "hit".
It would be amazing if your character had also dance moves in the long combos as the enemy has.
I love the real-time strategy. I hate to compare games with other games, but the whole strategy genre reminds me of a boxing game "Punch Out!!." I have only got to the big boss and couldn't figure out his pattern. Very good work on the game!
This is probably my fav LD entry so far. The art is absolutely perfect: you really put lots of atmosphere in your characters, well done. Each combat is fun & interesting. And the music!! OMG the music. Good job :)
My only (small) comment is about the "hit" feedback, the one when you successfully hit your opponent. It's too heavy and hides the opponent completely for a short duration, making the game very hard to play in pure-reflex mode. You have to learn the pattern and reproduce it from memory, because you can't see the enemy hands while hitting him.
Wow, an amazing job you've done! I spent some time just looking at the game and listening to the music, it's so charming! The only thing that felt questionable is being able to attack faster than the opponents.
wow amazing! i didn't imagine the rock-paper-scissors concept could be expanded into such an innovative and polished game, very well done and beautifully executed!
Incredible game! I loved the whole thing. Only problem I had was figuring out that Rocky's right hand was also supposed to be matched. I loved the rhythm aspect mixed with figuring out the patterns. Fantastic!
I think this looks and sounds great, but I had trouble playing. When I got to Rocky I couldn't get him past two points, and my inputs seemed to be lagging to the actual action. maybe the os/x build would be better for me.
MrShoestore, we're sorry to hear that! Please bear in mind that both of the enemy's hands count toward the duel. Rocky plays 4 rocks in a row, and then regenerates 4 of his points. This means that you have to knock down all 4 of his points before he regenerates. Hope that helps!
Fantastic entry - a well thought out rhythm game with an amazing western feel. I absolutely loved the music and lo-fi art style! My only issue is that the bandits seem to stop doing anything sometimes. Great job, keep it up! :)
HAHAHAHA super nice :] Super good use of RPS gameplay, super nice graphics and animation :] really great. The music adjustment trick is also nice ! Were you traumatized by alex kid too ? Nice work !
Oh boy you just killed it with this! I was impressed by the art and music but figured the gameplay would get boring - I was completely wrong! Great job on changing things up and making me learn as I go.
This is awesome. Great concept, somehow you made rock paper scissors fun! Amazing presentation too, with great pixel art (nice use of god rays on the sun too) and music. Fantastic game overall.
Really solid and fun... I love the "tells", and I love the name of the first bandit. Some of the tricks (the third guy) were hard to figure out, but overall it was fair and fun (and the art was just gorgeous!)
Holy shit how could I miss this. This is awesome. I was thinking "how can they make Rock Paper Scissor fun it's dumb it's gonna be rand- oh wow nice musi-- oh wow nice art--- OH SHIT IT'S SO FUN"
Neat game play and awesome graphics.The game has a very interesting music and story is acceptable.It make the lame idea of RPS to an amazing theory!It deserves first place.

Better than Guitar Hero by far !!!
Loved the idea and the general application.
The art is unquestionable, from the animations until the effect that the sun causes when it reaches the plateaus, and by the way, this west ambientation really attracts me!
Even the tittle is genial! I personally love The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
Congratulations again for all the team, you really reached it!
Totaly five stars!

Got stuck on the third person, though - saw he was healing, but wasn't sure how to offset it?
- The gameplay is so funny
- It has sooo nice pixel art and graphical effects.
- The music, characters and environment build a perfect cowboy, wild-west feeling
- The game fits perfectly to the theme
5/5 Awesomeness!!! Do more games! :DDD
Awesome, nothing else to say.

This entry is a fantastic work! Lovely graphics, music, gameplay, etc...
Congratulations, very well done :))
Great music, great graphics great gameplay concept. Just wanna see more game :D
Very solid, and professional style.
Really a good Job!
This game reminds me sometimes you can be dyslexic with your keyboard ^_^'
My only wish was that it would be clearer when to fire; at the very least in the beginning of the game.
Take all my stars !
Were you traumatized by alex kid too ? Nice work !
