The wind direction is always changing and so is the canyon layout, creating an enjoyable and reflex based experience!

The name had me there. Its funny and the game play was unexpected. Simple controls. It does feel like gliding down.
Would be nice to interact with something on the way down.
fun game!!! i love that you get a different death dialog depending on what you hit.
Honestly great.
I have seen a number of games where they have the wind push you around but this is the first ive seen that actually shows that gameplay info by changing the way the clouds are moving. So from the get go you are already winning me over on a readability front. Then!!! You add that the enemies make sounds before they come on screen as a telegraph and I loved it even more. The presentation of this game is through the roof. The game looks beautiful, and sounds great. You can really tell a lot of work went into making this as playable as possible. Really fantastic work.
great game great work
Looks amazing! And a pretty smart idea to keep it simple for the jam. I just kind of hoped there would be a little more to do on a game as polished as this. Maybe a shooting mechanic? Considering the cowboy theme and all. Controls are way better than mine. Probably how mine should have been if I got them closer to what I was aiming for. :D
What a fun game! Had a really great time playing it and I am interested in rocking this game on mobile too! Also, I love the name
A nice, simple idea executed really well. Love the leaderboard and the fact that this works on my mobile. The unlocks are really cool as well although I'm not talented enough to unlock them. Art is a high point here. My only suggestion (and I'm reaching for one at that) would be to maybe make the wind direction a bit clearer. I know the clouds are handling that, and maybe it's a me problem, but I found the winds a bit difficult to distinguish which direction they were pushing me. Otherwise, an excellent game.
Good job! Rats in the West have been a fresh and cool theme ever since "An American Tail: Fievel Goes West".
Stunning art and perfect music to descend into the canyon while gliding with your hat.
Impossible to beat the DEVs record, too many cacti! XD
Well done guys
Cute! Very simple game, very enjoyable, definitely got sucked in for a few minutes. It looks like this would work on mobile? Which is cool. Great job!
