Description of your game.
The story for our game focuses on a sharpshooter on a journey to become a legend in the ol'west.
THE GOAL: We wanted to make a minimalist game that required the player to learn the most efficient path through a range of increasingly difficult puzzles whilst interacting with the world through the big iron on their hip. The player's progress will be hampered if they fail to commit their past successes to memory. Those willing to discover through failure will find themselves higher among their peers when all is done.
3rd Party Assets packs used for art and sound which we have the Commercial license for (as we lack an artist and a sound designer.) All code, level + game design etc is all us though!

Fun game, really enjoyed the simplicity of it all. Only annoying thing was that the shots wouldnt register on the target sometimes and required a weird place to shoot in order for the target to go down.
Really like the art style and the game worked really well after I read the description and went back to it (thought it was broken at 1st because shooting the targets seemed to not work a lot of the time :)). Great effort, well done.
I really liked 3D environment, and I believe there is beauty in the simplicity of the game idea.
I think it would be nice for the gun to shoot directly at the point the player is clicking on, even though it's being shot from the hip.
It was frustrating to have to keep clicking on a non default ammunition type each time I wanted to use it. I also managed to crash the game by running out of bullets.
Overall I think it has a lot of potential to be a fun arcade game, and I can understand how the 'learning' theme is supposed to fit into it.
