This might be my favorite game. It’s simple, intuitive, fun, and looks great. Well done, mate!

Enjoyed the concept and the art was lovely! I really liked how horses dragged other horses it was like performing a "combo"!

Submitted(+1)

nice game!! you made good use of the limitation. my only gripe is that the lasso feels a bit slow, if it was faster it would really improve the flow of the game

Submitted(+1)

Quite entertaining! The controls are super intuitive, and I really liked the concept.

Quite fun. :)

Love minimalist presentation and simple mechanic! Would have loved to be able to reel in the lasso to catch even more horses!

Submitted(+1)

Very fun! And easy to control!

Nicely done! Super well executed. Reminded me of a fishing minigame on a gameboy game I had. It would be nice to see my score, but I chuckled when I lost and got the "womp womp" sound. Cute!

Developer

Thank you! Yes someone else commented stating the same thing about the "score" and I should have shown how many horses were left to collect.

Super satisfying to play — nice job

This was so cute! I love the horse sprites, and it's challenging but very fun. Amazing work!

This was super fun! It's a simple game but I thoroughly enjoyed it. And the lasso sound effect does something nice to my brain.

Loved this little entry. Minimal aesthetic and solid mechanic. Loved when I could rope more than one horse, very satisfying.

A simple idea but well executed. Really enjoyable game

Nice little game! Catching multiple horses at once was satisfying. Think I won with 12 seconds left.

Fun game. Would be nice to try different layouts and limitations

Simple, but fun game. The music and sound effects bring it to life. I like the limited color palette and retro aesthetics. It would have been nice to see the same in the “you lose” screen.

Developer

Thank you for playing. You know I didn't even think about that.
Even though I made the start screen part of the world... lol

Fun game, I wish there was more levels!

Fun little game, took me two tries to catch all the horses. Those last couple horses are tricky to get.

Submitted(+1)

Wooo I caught all the horses in the nick of time!! I thought this was such a cute and fun lil game, perfect concept and sfx and music. Nice job!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you had fun. I had bigger goals for this game to be more of a round based game but just didn't have the time to implement that well enough. Thank you for playing!
