We really had fun with the game. Our only comment is that we did not know if we won when there were no more enemies around. I don't know if there was a bug but celebratory music at the end would be a nice.

Developer

Thank you! So this one requires a bit of explaining. Upon winning or losing, there is victory/loss music, however, when you enter a "menu" scene, the music can be toggled on/off with the same button as shooting left, which oftentimes causes a clash of controls.

Neat idea! I like the intro music and the SFX in general. To expand it you could have pauses between rounds with sounds of different landscape elements to give a sense of progression/exploration. Some shouting cowboys and other voices might be nice too.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that some transition-y stuff could improve this game. I also did not want to overwhelm the user with too many sound effects.

Thanks for letting me know! I should add more options for playing.

No worries!

I like the concept. At some point I had horses left and right, the sound approaching and moving off again, but couldn't shoot anything.

Also no way to exit the game other than reloading the page.

Developer

Thanks for playing! There is a reload cooldown after each shot.

I mean I could shoot, just not hitting anything. The horses just kept coming and going.

Developer

There should be a "ding" sound effect whenever you hit a cowboy.

Submitted

Yes, I know, wasn't getting that sound, that's how I know I wasn't hitting anything... Just the two horses, one on the left and one on the right. 

Guess I ran into some bug that caused a loop or something.

Developer

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I've run into that bug a couple times. Not entirely sure what caused it.
