Too Hot To Stopreally good game overall. the hold and draw feels really realistic in that u have to hold the gun and count and draw at the last moment.

Dungeon_Level - -This is a very well polished game. I did get a bit frustrated with the sway mechanic, as I already don't have the steadiest hands. But it was still fun and a very interesting mechanic. Good job!

Minutes to MidnightDuelling and Vampires are so down my alley!
I think you really nailed the aesthetic, and the music choice is such a great mash-up of the two…
Thank you for giving me this fantastic experience, I didn’t know how much I needed it!
Great job across the board, truly!

Lay the Count DownVery cool and addictive idea for a game, really hard but I could not put the game down! I think my only critique is the art style is quite harsh on the eyes, and I think using smooth gradients instead of pixel ones would've made the game look a bit more "clean"? Would've also made the text a bit easier to read from a distance also. Very fun and clever game otherwise
Thanks for checking it out! Appreciate the kind words. I understand about the start style...I was messing around in Aseprite and discovered dithering, and once I got going not even a force of god could stop me. Just got carried away. This will forever be my, "Guess what I just discovered...?" game in regards to dithering.
An excellent and stylish entry! The game mechanics are great for the theme, and very fun!

CounterfeitConcept is cool. Very original.
The added staggering is a bit annoying given the mouse movement is already not easy, if you reall y want to implement stagger add it later, specific for an enemy, and progressively harder.

Just Five More Minutezzz Please!The atmosphere of the game looks nice. The idea is really creative, the visual design of the game is really top notch. I can say the same for the audio. On the other hand, the effects are also amazing. Had fun!

Until ObservedThis game is really fun and creative! It gets pretty hard but thats probably a skill issue i have (i got 382).

Demonic DecrementalProbably this is top 10 in every catergory besides maybe story.
The only thing I could nitpick is that the blood splatter of the final shot remains on screen during the final text and also the first word of that is written "HIs" instead of "His". But all of this meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

Demonic DecrementalNeat game with a solid game loop! Kinda reminded me of the quickdraw parts of the call of juarez games in a way!
Great artstyle and very addictive game loop!
Fantastic work ! :)
