The art is great, both in the game page and in the game itself, but the gameplay is very hard. I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong or if it’s just requiring a very high speed and reflexes to press wASD repeatedly very quickly. I was trying to click them in a “circle” to make the lasso spin and gain momentum, as cowboys do? But it didn’t really work.

I love the art, it's beautiful. It could be a little more forgiving though. I love to see a lefty cowboy catching cowigators

The Revenge of Mommy NatureLove the art style! The game is intuitive and easy to jump into. I do feel like tuning the lasso distance was really tricky, like I had to be spot-on with it in order to hit my cow, so maybe adding a little bit more leeway there would be nice (or make different kinds/levels of cow that require different levels of precision). One thing I also generally like to see in games like this with a power meter, is an indicator of the last power level you used; so, like, if I threw and missed, seeing a little marker for where I had the power set during that throw helps me gauge my next one.
All-in-all, though, really well done. Nice work!

GyreVery fun game and I think a rather unique take on the spin theme of the game! As others said, I felt the central mechanic a bit too unforgiving, as I'd mess it up accidentally by one button press and lose a life, or just barely be out of a reach of a cow and lose a life. But like I said, great project!

ArmydilloFun game, I like the art and the vibes :)
The lasso mechanic is fun but does seem to be a bit unforgiving at times, there were many instances where I would just lasso it acidentally in the beginning. Maybe adding a bit of a grace period at the start would help?

Record MadnessWay too hard in my opinion, and my fingers got tired fast hahaha. Aside from that, artstyle and 2D graphics are top-notch! The mechanic of spinning the lasso also seems fun. Congrats

Memory Surge - Democinematic in a game jam? wow your style is amazing. I like the concept I was struggling to understand how to realize the distances but maybe it's trial and error so you use the previous attempt as references. Anyway such a cool interpretation of the theme, well done <3
