Great game

This game is awesome and feels exactly like a Game Boy game! You guys nailed it! However, the music doesn't fit the game. The music makes me want to fall asleep. Make some upbeat country songs & your game'll be finer than a ten gallon hat filled with Texas sweet tea!

Retro Gameboy Nostalgia goodness!

Just installed this again on my iPhone 6S and it's just as much fun as when I played it all the way back at release. Controls are great, soundtrack is on point and the level designs make it worth exploring :) throw in the Saloon, Doctor, and Casino shops and this is a really fun and challenging little Westernvania :)

So disappointed

I had originally bought this game a few years ago at a buck and loved it. Then they updated it and the original purchase wouldn’t play. Whatever, it was just a buck. Then this new one becomes available, Awesome! I pay another buck to play this game, totally worth it... Wrong! This new version is a super close up of the screen. You can’t even play it. It’s a joke. Imagine playing Mario with one inch notice. Every move is pretty much a blind jump into “whatever”. So lame. I would ask for a refund but who cares... I would advise it’s just not worth a lame game that could be so great. If you’re the developer reading this, please go back to the old game. What a waste if you keep this nonsense going on...

The screen on the main game is 1/4 and left corner

I love this game but haven’t played in a while. I just loaded it and the main menu and first video is full screen but then the game it’s self is 1/4 the size in the left corner. Please fix the game.

Screen problems
     
by DAHOME19 · September 7, 2020

The screen is so small and it’s stuck in the corner I can’t see

Sorry I bought it!

Someone recommend this game as a metroidvania style game. Oh man were they WRONG! This game has: No point. No reward for 100% on levels. No upgrades. Poor play control. Levels that take 5 seconds to finish. I'm sorry I ever bought it.

Rip off
     
by CornFrog1 · November 8, 2025

Bought this game for $1 and can’t get past the opening text it just gets stuck on “I’ll help you” and then freezes

The best side scroller out there
