Golden Star Sheriff

This is my entry for LOWREZJAM 2021, still incomplete and it will be mostly a POC of a complete game.

The game is a tribute to the Natsume's SNES classic "Wild Guns" and is inspired by the gameplay in that game.

In "Golden Star Sheriff" as the new sheriff in Dodge City your duty is to  chase and  get rid of a big band of thieves that have taken over the city and it's sorrounding areas.

Current state of the game (JAM Version) is going to be a tweaked version of the full game as there's been not enough time to have multiple levels in place, so it will take place only in the first level, Dodge City streets, chasing for "Perro Loco", the lowest  ranking bandit chief in the band.   The game is tweaked so you can play several times the phase with increased odds rather than actually advancing phases... 

Gameplay:

Move with cursor keys, shoot with X and roll with Z or C while moving left or right.  A gamepad is highly recommended for this game.

While pressing  the fire button you will enter "free aim" mode and will hold your position while sending out a barriage of bullets! 

When you find yourself in a tight spot, roll out of danger... bullets won't be able to catch you while rolling!  But... be very cautions as rolling is a reflex action and you cannot control where you will be landing!
