nice game, when i saw it i was like ok this is another crappy shooter game. but then the guns started rotating and i was like OMG that is so cool. i actually shot the one guys hat off i started laughing my ass off. :D
Like others I liked the graphics, the rotating guns specificaly made me laugh. I would be cool if the rotation speed of the guns increased as your bounty increased!
Nice graphics, nice voice acting and nice concept. I feel like the only thing holding it back is that you have no control over someone shooting you, so you can't really build up your value that high before they get a lucky shot.
You are going to make me rich! Oh God how much I love those voices. It made me laugh. Quite frustrating when you hit the mouse and it won't fire... Nice music and sounds. My game "Billy The Man" is based on the same concept/idea if you'd like to check it out...
The funniest game I have played yet. At first I thought it would be boring and too simple but as I played, I realized that it was both challenging and entertaining! Also the sound effects suit the game perfectly.
This game made me laugh out loud in a few parts. I love the effect that you can shoot someone's hat off and they comment on it. The voice work and music were great.
It got pretty tense for me after missing a few shots and then having my rival shoot my hat off. Simple game with a lot of replay value. I really enjoyed it!
I saw this on twitch.tv/mrjoshuamclean and had to give it a go. The spinning gun is a really cool idea and the game is a lot of fun. The addition of the jump works really well too as it means you're not at the complete mercy of the enemy's random aim. The graphics are simple but good and the sound is really great - love the intro speech by each enemy. The gun spinning faster adds a nice challenge too. My highest score was 120,000.
You could definitely add to this if you wanted to flesh it out more, maybe an upgrade system (including one that displays your reload timer would be great). Also, maybe reduce the cash to smaller amounts or add a comma separator for readability. I don't think this really used the theme effectively but it's one of my favourite to play so far.
@kodiqi Thanks for playing and watching! Solid feedback, I think the reload timer's a great idea. Maybe the best gun could be a six shooter that you can fire rapidly for six shots before reloading or something. Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice! Kept it simple for your first Ludum Dare and executed your idea very well. :) Love the western music and the literal 'gunslinger' mechanic. Following!
Simple to play hard to master fits this game quite well. Enjoyed the voice over and that your response when shoot the hat off hehe. This game would fit nice on mobile.. hint hint...

I can't think of anything to nitpick about this one. Even if there isn't terribly much going on the bottom line is that it's fun.
Well done!
I wish there was a crouch button.
Also the sound effects suit the game perfectly.
