#### Welcome to Dodge City! As an Arcane Outlaw, you wield the power of fire-breathing hydras as well as your trusty Colt Magnum in this 2.5D bullet-hell shooting gallery.

🕹️ Controls

- WASD - Move
- Space - Jump
- Mouse - Shoot
- Hold 'S' Key - Summon Hydra

🎲 Game Features

- Survive as many rounds as possible in the Dodge City Shooting Gallery
- Summon Hydras to deal explosive fire damage to targets while you blast 'em with your Colt six-shooter
- Western-themed rock soundtrack
- Play in color or vintage black & white mode

✨ Tips

- Hydras shoot fireballs at your target when they're off cooldown
- Hydras last for 45 seconds or until taking fatal damage
- You can use Hydras for cover
- Hydra fireballs deal AoE damage, so waiting until they're ready and then targeting a central target is a decent strategy
- Since you can't move while summoning, try to move to an area free of bullets in order to have time to safely summon

⚙️ Extra Controls

- Hold Keypad +/- to progress the day/night cycle
- Press Keypad 9 to freeze frame -- great for taking screenshots
- Select Color or Black & White mode from the Pause menu

💥 Bugfixes


- Fixed issue with the Round Controller where rounds were overlapping and/or not completing, leaving the game in a stuck state
- Fixed issue where you could get stuck in the summoning state
- Fixed issue where Hydras were getting hit multiple times per enemy bullet, almost instantly dying
- Fixed issue where Results screen was not showing the correct data
