Wanted by Stefan Jovanovic

[raw]
made by Stefan Jovanovic for LD 44 (COMPO)

HEY SHERIFFS! :cowboy:

Wanted is a reaction game where you have to almost perfectly time your reaction in order to become the Sheriff of the Wild West! Government will pay you for killing your enemies, but be careful, you will also become a face on one of those wanted posters!

HOW TO PLAY:

Duel consists of three phases marked with three different sounds:
* Ready phase,
* Steady phase,
* Shoot phase

Once you hear that the shoot phase has started press space key as fast as you can!

First one that comes to 3 wins, wins the duel!

CONTROLS:

Single player: SPACE KEY - SHOOT

Two player:
A - first player shoot
L - second player shoot

Cool game! The graphics were very charming. It would be nice to have a shoot sound effect/particles.

Good job!

@danga Thanks for the feedback. What do you mean by shoot sound effect, because there is a shoot sound.

Cool concept and hard game. To be honest I didn't supposed it will be that hard, but it's also very fun experience, really unique one. Good job!

Really cool graphics - love the old kinescopic tv effect and the pixel art is just amazing! Only issue I had is with balancing - wasn't able to even advance from the first opponent, he draws so fast. Otherwise a super cool game! Cheers!

@borys As I was making it in an 8-bit CRT TV style I also thought that it should be hard, just like almost all of the retro games.:smile:
Thanks for playing it, I'm glad you liked it!

Woaw DUDE, Good to see you back in LD44 :frog: :clap:. This games Visuals are sick dude :clap: i might just steal that Shader Mhuahahah :japanese_goblin:. For the game its solid entry, very clean. The sound can be a little loud but i am gonna blame Unity on that :frog:. I hope next time we get a better theme, this year was to constrictive.
YO, has anyone beaten Geronimo ??? its Impossible, I demand Proof that you have @stefan-jovanovic :gun: :frog:

@rustycrow Thanks for playing it! I'm glad you liked it! :smiley:
You are right, the theme was really constraining.
BTW here is the proof. :smile:

The first guy you shoot could be facing away so you have time to check the correct input to shoot :D

I can't beat double pistol old man... @rustycrow it's the one after Geronimo. Sometimes he's faster than me, sometimes it seems that my shoot don't register.

For your metrics : I shot between 213ms and 258sm.

Man, reminds of the mini game in Kirby Super Star, fantastic!
My keyboard sure have a lot of lag though :/

@palsina I'm glad you liked the game! I will probably make an android build, so input lag may not be such a problem there!

Quite dificult, but i really enjoyed it. I think it's the best visual style I have found in the COMPO category. Great work, 5 :star:

God that's hard ! but I really like seeing my reaction time :)
I don't really see the theme connection, that's not a problem but since you didn't opt out of that category, maybe I'm missing something...
The "vintage" effect is really cool though
🎤 Stefan Jovanovic
30. Apr 2019 · 20:05 UTC
@marcenat Thanks for playing the game! Each enemy has a money tag that you get for killing them, but as you kill them, you will also become wanted and the price of your life will increase as you progress. That's how I implemented the theme.

Weeeeeell I am very bad at your game XD I hardly killed El Mostacho (sexy name btw), I almost gave up but I killed him at least once haha
I like the game, it is pretty good, maybe hard ? I know I do not have the best reaction time, but seeing all those enemies, I would have expected the first one to be a 3/0, or at least a 3/1.
About the art, I'm not sure I like the post processing you made to be honest, it doesn't suit the pixel art style of your game in my opinion, I'd rather have some camera shaking, smoke effects than a big lens distortion and chromatic aberration. Personal opinion though

That's a good entry, great job and thanks for the game!

@saering Thanks for playing the game! I will probably lower down the difficulty in the upcoming update. Regarding graphics, it's actually representation of the old CRT TVs and monitors, as I was going for the retro feel.

Thanks for nice feedback! :slight_smile:

I love the visual. Pity that I have too slow reflexes for the game, so I'm dead on the first enemy. But it is fun anyway.

Nice game, with pretty graphics. Sometimes I got the feeling it didn't recognize my space. (not even a too early, not even a too late message). Great entry!

I really liked it! Super cool graphics and sound, the CRT effect is great for the feel of the game. Like some of the other comments I found the game extremely difficult. I struggled to even beat the first guy. Maybe I just suck? Overall great job on the game!

Clever - beautiful - addictive. Well done. I guess that it could be a little more interesting to play with mouse and maybe a crosshair on screen - it's just an idea. I love this entry. The shader on camera which you used creates a good vide - like in the old western movies. Bravo ++

Nice game! It just feels a little off that in the story mode you have to shoot with a different key than in 2 player mode. Nice animations and feel to the game. It would be cool to see how much faster you were compared to the other player
