i guess i just suck at this game cuz i never even reached a boss.......

What program did you use to create this game? Because I want to create a game, and dont know ANY programs XD I found it very well made, and the but with some many things to do, as in actions, I cant figure it out, or remember all that easily-- perhaps a 'hint' kind of thing?

It's pretty decent, I suppose. The jumping feels very choppy and the top-down perspective makes it rather difficult to tell what I can slide under or jump over. The controls aren't explained very well, and I often couldn't tell what I could do with certain enemies or obstacles. The abilities seemed like they were left to be discovered by the player for the most part, which isn't always such a bad thing, but in this kind of game it would definitely help if the player was given some sort of guidance, especially with so many abilities and gameplay mechanics to use. And I find that the biggest problem of all was that this game is dizzying. Literally... dizzying. It does that thing to my eyes that Guitar Hero does as well, except it takes effect MUCH quicker and with MUCH more severity. It may just be a problem with my eyes in particular, and it's kind of a hard thing to explain. It kinda feels like everything else I look at is moving up or down, similar to the trick where you stare at a spiral for 30 seconds then look at a wall, except everything I see seems to formed into three lanes, and in the middle, it's going upwards while everything else goes downwards. But again, there's the possibility that I'm the only one with this problem and I'm just rambling about nothing right now. The animation isn't half-bad, but something about it feels just a tad... off to me for some reason. I can't really put my finger on what it is though. The running cycle is done pretty well, so I don't even know what I'm talking about. Perhaps it was just too fast-paced or something? I have no idea, I'm just rambling. As mentioned before, the jumping seems pretty choppy to me. Kinda of hard to explain, but instead of a large, leaping, bound that there should be in a running game, there's a short little hop that doesn't really flow with the gameplay. On an unrelated subject, the main character's design is pretty cool. I always tend to dig the whole hood thing, and I also think bandages look cool for some reason. Can't really say much for the "epic boss", because umm... I never really got that far. (The setting is pretty cool too.) All in all, it's pretty decent, but I can't get very far, considering what it does to my eyes and also because it's not all that easy. I suppose if I didn't get major "Guitar Hero Syndrome", as I have just now called it, I'd be able to play it more.

This is a good game. I love the graphics and the simplicity can be addicting.

However, I have a few problems.

The game's 3 lane pattern gives me very little wiggle room in some situations. I got killed once because I was stuck at the end when a carriage came by and I ran into a stall.

There is not enough things to shoot. I really like that I have guns, and would gladly like to use them on more than wanted posters and (due to the difficulty, I can only make it to the first boss) the guy that throws barrels. I would really like to shoot those farmers with pitchforks in front of me because they block my way and ALWAYS in front of a power up. surrounded by crates.

The detection is good, but can really be a drag in some cases, especially when you start out.

Coins don't give a DAMN if you will die trying to jump over those crates because you will land in another, or if you would have to run through a stall and die. It is more of an inconvenience, but still.

The area ahead is a bit short, which screwed me over sometimes.

Too few lanes. I understand three is a good number, but it is just not enough to escape deathtraps as mentioned earlier.

And coin getting is too slow, that or start ahead power ups are too expensive for what they do. Pick your poison on which you believe is the case, I can't decide.

All in all a good game, but these things bug me from making it an excellent game.

Still wasted an hour on this, so... good job!

After a couple days of playing this...I'm still so addicted!

Using the mouse AND the keyboard was a little awkward (and yes, I'll admit infuriating at first) but once I worked that out, the actual controls were still pretty easy to use. The areas where I actually had to use my weapon were fairly straightforward and those became the easy parts. The graphics are pretty sweet and move smoothly. In fact, I fell a few times looking off at the scenery or for more detail of something, lol. The only thing I found myself wishing for was a reason to be running! Sadly, that's why I couldn't give this five stars. All in all, though, it's a deceptively simple game but excellently done in my opinion. I will be sharing this to my Facebook sphere!
