Favorite game I've played so far from the jam. super fun. super addictive I want to keep playing. it's small and arcade like but still unique it's the perfect formula for playing over and over! I love it. great art, sound, and game feel too :) does running into cactuses take away your stamina?

Developer(+2)

Thank you so much for the kind words! No, running into cacti does not take away from stamina :) They are just there are permanent obstacles.

So glad to hear that 😊 Thanks for playing and dropping this encouraging feedback!

Super cute and simple gameplay! Really my only gripe is the thumbnail. If you could make the text slightly smaller to show off the cowboy and cows more, I think it will draw more people in. The sprite work is very appealing! 

Developer

Thank you, glad you like it!
I think you’re right about the thumbnail. Not sure if it’s against the jam rules to update it now, though?

Submitted(+1)

I don't see any rules against it, but if you want to be on the safe side, you could always update it after the rating period is over :)

Developer(+1)

Yeah, maybe just to be safe lol don’t wanna get disqualified. 😅

wow, it's just as fun as it seemed from the gifs you posted during development! there's a lot going on but it's still intuitive. definitely 5 stars for this.

Developer(+1)

Ey so glad to hear! Thanks for playing 😃🙏

It so chunky and cute! Its super intuitive (part because of the amazing art). Just cutting to the game over screen is a bit jarring, so a little loss animation would be super. I would also love some more juicy sound effects. But all in all, this is a great submission!

Developer(+2)

That’s great to hear! Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙌😊

Yeah totally agree. The sudden game over bother’s me.  A proper game over sequence is at the top of the list of post-jam nice-to-haves. Like, maybe a freeze frame and some feedback on what made the stamina run out, animation of the character passing out, game over sound/music. Something like that would definitely close the gameplay loop more neatly.

Absolutely gorgeous (as always), with some frantic gameplay and wonderful music. My highscore was 495 :)
