The Hungry Cowboy
A downloadable game for Windows
This was my first soup to nuts game! The theme was growth which for some reason inspired me to make a lil' game about a coyboy who can absorb bullets and spit them back at his enemies.
A lot of firsts in this project> First time using godot for not a tutorial, first time churning out this much pixel art (everything except the ghosts), first time actually pulling music off my OP1, and first time participating in a game jam!
Please feel free to leave comments and / or pointers and have a wonderful day!
The Ghosts were purchased from Pop Shop Packs and recolored to fit the palette of the project

What an interesting concept for a game! I'll admit my muscle memory had me dodging bullets at first which was quite a silly thing when it ran me into a ghost! I really liked the music, it solidified the vibe of the game as a bit of a less serious affair and I'm amazed you got all those tracks out of an OP1, maybe I need to check it out! Looking forward to trying the rest of your catalogue!!
Thanks so much for playing my very first game!
I was pretty dang happy with the little track I was able to make with my OP1 and honestly that lil guy has been my best companion in game dev music composition! It’s the quickest way for me to turn around a quick song that will work for a jam.
Thanks for playing!!
I'm not on Windows so I'm unable to try it, but congratulations on finishing your game for the jam + accomplishing all those firsts! :D I like the earthy color palette shown in your screenshot.
Wishing you well in all your future projects!
