Westest Showdown by Nachodlv
After a long day on the road looking for a place to rest, you find an alluring sign of a bar. When you step inside you notice something is off and there is no bar to be seen. You keep going, deeper and deeper until you hear faint voices. Is it the bar? or is there something else lurking?.
Fight hordes of monsters in this cursed cave and try to survive as long as possible! After each wave you'll get some help from an unknown source. Careful! Not all boons have an immediate result.

the game controlls feel good and the level is nicely assembled. I would suggest adding more ammo the level or respawn at some point I had to let the enemies kill me cause there was no ammo left...
Could be improved:
* change zipname to your game-name, otherwise you are not able to find it on your harddrive
* many collision volume issues, I thought I was able to reach some areas while the collision volumes did not let me, like the area where you collect upgrades
* Missing out of ammo sound, click ...click
* Framerate problems on my PC (Radeon 380X, 1440p), please add options
* Collection/Pickup feedback sound missing
* BLOCKER in Rd. 2, could not find ammunition to defeat the last remaining enemy.
* Thumbs up for BGM, but the music get's annoying quite quickly.
@ahspike we just fixed the crash with the shotgun upgrade. It seems like it was crashing when a shotgun upgrade was pick before the shotgun was used.
@oc1d we also fixed the powerup sound effect, there was a problem when packaging the game. We also changed the name of the zip folder.
Thanks everyone for the feedback!
I'm not quite sure how it implements the theme.
And some hit feedback would be great, too.
Anyways, good game!
If you are in the game and press Esc to pause the game, you have to click one time to be able to do anything. If you code with blueprints, you can take the "set Input Mode UI only" Node to avoid this.
