Guncho for PICO 8
About
Howdy, gunslinger!
Bandits are taking over the town and you're the only gunslinger around that can stop them. Battle through 5 bandit camps in this turn based rogue-like western to win the lucrative bounty or die trying.
How to playThis game uses gamepad and keyboard controls and involves rotating with left and right buttons. The player may take the following actions on their turn:
- Move - Select and move to a free tile
- Revolver - Aim at a direction and shoot at a target or reload bullet
- Punch - Select a target next to you and push it
- Sprint - Perform two move actions
- Bullet Hail - Unload all bullets and reload all bullets
Note that the revolver will turn clock-wise or counter-clockwise when moving or shooting.
Protips- Do keep in mind that explosives also push objects around. So keep away from traps and other bandidos so they don't get in your way.
- It is not only the trapper guy who can push stuff. You are also able to push his traps.
- Once you reach the last camp, do keep in mind that the boss man takes two actions per turn.
Thanks for the following gringos for testing an early version in the game and finding some bugs for me Louie Chapman, Andreas Håkansson, Monster Masherang, Freds72.
