Very fun! I kept doing runs after I beat it to get a better score lol

Nice use of physics to traverse the level! Had me thinking for a moment on how to get past that high wall which clicked with me when I saw that there is recoil when shooting. Overall, a good game!

A physics-based cowboy puzzle platformer is a fantastic idea. The level design and mechanics are on point.

This game was so satisfying once you figured out how you were going to do the level! I had so much fun pathing through the levels and the levels are well made too, I'm a fan!

Funny enough, our games were so similar that I was able to jump right in and enjoy yours almost immediately.

Great job! I especially loved the art style and the gameplay

The game is well made and delivers impressive results within the game jam’s time limit. I enjoyed the gameplay, puzzles, and the large number of different levels! I also liked the fun way to keep track of how many levels are left.

Great work, and thank you for making this cool game! :)

really great game, loved the challenge of figuring stuff out, got REALLY stuck on the two swap and 4 fly bullets level with the gap and targets... would love to hear what I was supposed to do :-D (and to that end the fly bullets didn't feel great) I probably could have kept playing for a long time if i didn't get so stuck.

If you use the bullet time it is a lot easier to line up your shots to allow you to swap with the right objects at the right time.

Surprisingly fun. I love the pixel art style.

Loved the opening cutscene! Very fun trying to figure out the solutions to the different levels.

What a clever puzzle game! I think choosing when you use each bullet would be beneficial. and please, [R] to restart would be a good thing to add :)

I liked that bullets mean nothing to me! But yeah dying or restarting with a button press (I had to go through menu?) would be good to keep going

i like the concept, i managed to get the impressive score of 0, but i had my astisfying moments

This was fun to play and I got pretty far once i figured out how to get the key in the air.  The level with the hanging crates was my favorite.  well done!

That was wonderful! I didn't realise how to restart a level for a while, I just kept restarting the game. But the fact that I kept playing through it was a good sign. That being said when you run out of bullets maybe something something to pop up and remind you how to restart, or that you should restart would be good

Tutorial made me very excited to try but I never figured out how to grab that key in the air and what E was supposed to do, might have missed something!

If you shoot downward you can rocket yourself into the air. E/Right click slows down time
