This is a great submission. I think the gameplay is engaging enough and the hitboxes a very forgiving. I think the music is brilliant and the visuals are decent too.
Well done.

This game is.. good?
Typical runner, duel with alien is broken, I don't get damage. I don't see any time travel here.
Fun game! The music cut off at a certain point though
Pretty cool overall — the visuals are nice and consistent, and it all comes together in a coherent way. It plays quite pleasantly too!
simple yet effective concept with amazing artstyle, but the implementation of the theme seems a bit lacking, pretty fun tho!
Art and sound both stand out as incredible.
This could stand alone as a minigame in a commercial game with a little more polish. It did seem a bit buggy - the music either didnt loop, or it just cut out randomly sometimes? idk. The first alien fight i got immediately hyper-beamed which didnt feel great.
The music not looping unfortunately is a web issue I didn’t notice before the deadline. It’s because it’s in .wav format which apparently has issues on web. Learned that now.
The alien duel is a western-style stand-off. So the moment it starts you gotta pull the trigger. The player bullet has more velocity than the alien’s, so if you shoot simultaneously, the player wins.
Cool Art and Music and a funny twist. Should make it more obvious to enter the UFO.
Also one time me and the alien were both invincible. The eternal standoff.
Collision in the duel scene is a serious headache. I spent so much time fixing bugs there, but it seems new ones keep popping up. I really didn’t consider how unintuitive the idea to catch the UFO is. I should add a text message or a blinking arrow or something.
I really like the art because it seems like an arcade game but sometimes is impossible to pick up the gold because there is an obstacle. Also I don't understand why is there a UFO
The gold has a larger hitbox than the cactus, so it should almost always be collectable. I also planned to add a Magnet power-up but ran out of time.
What does X do? What does C do? Wait... what does X do?
I couldn't catch the aliens, but I could catch lots of cactus spines in my butt.
X is used to shoot in the Alien duel, once you catch the UFO. If you win it, you unlock the jump ability with C.
The game is a fun little endless runner, I didnt think the theme was explored enough. The controls are good, the mechanics are good. The music stops soon after the game starts, but the other sounds were nice, and until the music stopped, that was too
The music not looping unfortunately is a web issue I didn’t notice before the deadline.
2750 points—pretty challenging. It reminded me of those classic cowboy flicks, but with aliens mixed in. Is alien just a level indicaitor? I've trid to catch it but failed. Great work
Oh, you need to catch the alien! You missed out on the coolest part. I need to make it more clear

When you get hit, you are briefly invincible but able to move.
This game is awesome! I really loved the music, it hit hella hard. I also enjoyed the game loop quite a bit!
This is such a cool minigame! It looks very nice and the music is really dope XD
Scored 3K, but had to replay it a few times (which is quite nice as the game does not feel repetitive)
But I guess im missing out on the alien bit, how do I get abducted? I got like, three spaceships on the screen and none of them wanted me lol
Oh, you need to catch the alien! You missed out on the coolest part. I need to make it more clear.
Oh, my bad then lol I'll replay it later today and try it out!
I think my X action is not working ? Or I am just bad I don't know. It is fun but I can't really judge it because I can't get through it T-T
X action? You can only use X to shoot during the duel scene.
yep, I can't seem to have the timing maybe ? Nothing happens when I press X during the due
First, the duel sound plays. When its over, you need to quickdraw and shoot as soon as it says “FIRE!” on the little text indicator on the bottom right.
Nice visuals and music, was not expecting some things :)
