Fun little game! The lasso mechanic is really cool
Awesome game. Very funny and theme well implemented. Good work!!
Honestly of all the cowboy lasso games in this jam, this was the one I liked the most! Super fun, awesome art and sound, can really see this working with more powerups and different mechanics. Frustrating to lose sometimes without knowing how exactly, maybe an indicator of the area you need to protect, but nothing that takes the enjoyment out of it. Congratulations on the entry!
Very fun! Gets stressful fast, but in an enjoyable way. :D
I like this one, it's fun!
Nicely done!!
Good small and fun game! Interesting gameplay
I'm in love with this mechanic. A lasso loop is such a clever take on this theme and I think the way you implemented it was well-tuned and satisfying. Getting to yoink these bandits around the screen is simply a lot of fun. The art style is nice, and the SFX work well. I think there should be a bit of a "punishment" for when you miss a lasso. Having to reel it back in or something. As other players have suggested, I think having a more clear lose condition would help as well.
But this is super cool. Nice work!
Really fun little game! Great design and creative concept for the prompt. nice
the lasso-ing was super satisfying!
Interesting gameplay. I could see this becoming an addicting casual game.
really enjoyable! I liked to attract many enemies at once xD great job!
Nice loops yehawww, I enjoy catching them all at once,
Simple and addictive game mechanic with great artwork. Great job!
Great work! Fits the theme, its fast, its fun, lke other comments said its a bit wierd the loosing condition, mave some feedback on the bag being really far and almost out could be cool. But beside that reaally cool
Great game, I liked how it turned into a crowd management game with trying to keep the two bags of money in the same spot. I had a bit of trouble learning the lose condition though, I wonder if the player's goal should be to keep the bags on screen rather than from a central point that's hard to remember.
Love the western theme! (Biased)
Great work, on this submission. The music and graphics fit the gameplay well. I particularly like the whirling the lasso animation.
I think I would have liked to be able to grab the money bags with the lasso, as opposed to having to wait for the bad guy to grab it. I think that could add some more strategy to this game.
I also enjoyed the later on levels, with the upgrades and the larger groups of enemies it's very satisfying to swoop up A whole posse of no good baddies all at once.
Great job!
Thanks! Also great suggestion for the money bags, seems like a no-brainer in retrospect
VERY addicting game loop, nice art, and fun idea of defending your gear instead of yourself :3
The game play is unique. It is a bit hard to play, but I do not possess a mouse... Good job!
The gameplay is really unique and fun. A bit of polish would it even better. Good job!
