This game is played with a keyboard and a mouse. You have to shoot all the bandits on each stage without getting all your cows killed. If you manage to protect all the cows in an stage, you get an extra life. There's an ending after a few stages.
This was the first time I used the HaxeFlixel engine, an open source engine for the Haxe language, using Visual Studio Code. Art was made in Photoshop, and I used BM Font to export the Bitmap Fonts. Ogmo was the level editor of choice.
Hi! Good game, entertaining, enjoyable and difficult to get the perfect one. Buen juego, pero mejor persona xD Hay un error, que imagino que es por falta de tiempo, de vez en cuando las vacas empiezan a cambiar de derecha a izquierda sin parar, pero nah, detallicos. De verdad, buen trabajo! ;D
This art style is really lovely and pretty, nice color palette. Also the game itself was fun and on point for the theme. I just wish there was no game over because I'm so terrible that I need to start from the beginning all the time. Nice, pretty and juicy game! Good job :)
@finntastico thank you!! It's a bit hard, but keep trying and saving those cows to get extra lives :id: @inzombiak I'm glad you liked it!! thanks for your compliments :)
Wow!! This game is the real deal. I love the old school arcade difficulty; I spent about 30 minutes before I finally beat it. Lovely graphics, simple, crisp controls. 5/5!
Instead of a 'try again' button after dying, I would have preferred a 'go' button at the start of each level. That would have given me time to look at the board and strategize
Trabajo brutal, sencillo pero muy efectivo. Los sonidos encajan a la perfección y la sensación al jugarlo es muy agradable. Solo he echado de menos algunos niveles más.
Really fast-paced and fun game. Puts you right into the action which I really appreciate. Art style is fantastic! All aspects of this are really well done :)
@MikeSalyh thanks for your feedback. *There was* that button but in the end I felt it broke the pace of the game too much and I removed it to make everything flow better. I will think about this in future games. :cow2:
@rodrigo-denubila@nachodlv I followed an arcade philosophy, and being challenging is an important aspect that I hope we all enjoy! Thanks for your feedback and the kind words gun::gun:
@surfskater2 Gracias! Yo también quise meter más niveles pero al final decidí hacer un juego corto para no exigir a los participantes que lo probasen que invirtiesen demasiado tiempo, y así todo el mundo puede irse con buen sabor de boca. No quise pedir demasiado :cowboy:
@drewg8@jackcaunter We are *so* glad that you like the art style!! Thank you :cow:
Definitely one of the best so far! Great job! I only wish I didn't have to completely start when running out of lives. I get it, that is what lives are for but some of those levels are hard! haha. Overall the game feels super polished and the gameplay is addictive! (That little camera shake when you shoot adds a lot to the feel). Bravo!
I like the color palette that you choose for the game, because everything fits well, it's a really fun game and I could pass some time playing it. Great work.
This game! I simply love it! The Gameplay may not be anything special, but it's super tight. The art direction is great (I love the palette! It may just be four colors, but oh, are those colors well chosen), the sound design is absolutely outstanding - it's unbelievable, how so few sounds can have SO MUCH character - and the theme song is AWESOME. Seriously, if this was a real arcade I would have gladly put my money into it!
That was refreshingly simple but awesome at the same time. I really love the reduced artstyle and gameplay. I will take you as an example for future game jams to really polish a game to its very core and not overload it ( like i do most oft the time, haha). Great Job!
Nice game, but it can get quite difficult around stage 4, 5 and 6 (probably above 6 as well, but I didn't get that far). The art and colours are great, and so is the music. All around pretty good, just a bit difficult.
Some of my favorite graphics and audio I've seen this jam! Love the colors, I REALLY love how the animation of text is synced with the audio :heart: Great job!
@Fupi is not a hard game at all, for a LD I didn't want the game to take too long to complete so most people could leave with a good taste in their mouths. Some people find it really difficult, though!
Great graphics, very polished, simple and satisfying gameplay. You've nailed it! I really hope to see updates of this game in the future! Saludos y muchas felicitaciones amigos c:
I was able to beat it! It's pretty hard and it took several tries. The AI feels pretty competent. I think the most frustrating things for me is there's no lead time to when the bandits fire, so it's pretty hard to predict where the shot is going to come from. The shots visually are a different color, but since it's a muted color palette it can be a bit hard to track as well. The art is very nice and I liked the ending. nice job!
Nice one indeed. Good graphics and the music was awesome. Being picky, the only thing I could say that could be improved is to highlight the player somehow to make it stand out from the bandits. Sometimes, when a level started I didn't know right away which one I was and I lost some lives because of that.
I liked the fact that you could kill your own cows, makes it more challenging but it's a good mechanic , not seen very often. And the bonus of an extra life for saving all cows was a good mechanic as well.
