How it feels

A fast-paced, procedurally generated cowboy shooter that feels whimsically dangerous, with cute visuals and a forgiving approach to death.

What players say

Players compare it to Binding of Isaac in difficulty and structure, praising the weapon variety and secret bosses. Some note the lack of meta progression but appreciate unlocking items through in-run currency. A casual player wishes the cursor could stay fixed instead of moving with the character.
