I see you entered your game in Pixel Jam!  Nice!  Good luck!!  I guess it's too late for the Jam, but I just wanted to remind you that there is still a bug in the current version (at least for me).


Start the game, then walk out and get killed by something, then select "Main Menu".  Instead of going to the main menu it just exits the program.  Also, selecting "Exit" does nothing.

So it looks like the "Main Menu" option does what "Exit" should, and the "Exit" option does nothing.


Again, good luck in Pixel Jam!!!  I am sure your game will do very well!

Hey! Ill try to fix that today ;)

Fixed ;)

Thanks!  I didn't think you were allowed to fix things until after the Jam ended, although I guess this is a minor thing.

Nice game!!!


I have some comments...

If you die without setting a checkpoint, your checkpoint is set inside the starting building.  If you load that checkpoint, your horse is also now inside the building.  Is there a way to get him out?

If you are in a heated battle and die, you may unexpectedly click the item that ends the game.  There should be either a confirmation, or a delay before it accepts entry to pick one of those options.  If I am clicking to shoot my gun and that click instead selects the item that ends the game due to dying suddenly, it means I lose all my progress.


You lose a lot of gold/money when you die and there does not seem to be a good way to "farm" gold/money easily.  Maybe make an option where you can pick up your gold where you died or make the penalty less severe?  Perhaps there is a way to get gold/money that is easier that I don't know about, or maybe you want to make the game even harder for people who are already having a hard time? :-)

When I get near/in a town all the guards constantly aim at me, makes me feel so special, but doesn't seem all that realistic.  Also, if I am being chased by drones or other baddies I think the guards should help me out by shooting them instead of just acting like they aren't there.

Thanks again for the game and reading my comments!

Thanks for your comment, Ive just noticed stuff with horse and checkpoint yesterday xd and im working on little updatem it will be uploaded today ;)

Thanks for the update.  There still seems to be a problem with if you die and press the mouse button (to shoot) it can select an option from the menu that results in losing your checkpoint.  Also, if you select "Main menu" it seems to crash instead of going to the menu.

The guards shooting at baddies may not be as helpful as I thought, since they are just as likely to hit me as the baddie :-).


EDIT:  Also wanted to mention that at one point I jumped off the horse as he was going full speed and he kept going and ended up getting stuck in the wall.  I got back on him but could not move.  After dying he was by the checkpoint and I could ride him again.

Also forgot to mention that even before this update I did manage to "finish" the game but I was wondering what the aircraft at the extreme north was for, as I don't think I did anything with it (at least I can't recall doing anything).  The guard said that they were awaiting my signal, but after doing what he said, did not remember seeing them do anything.


EDIT2:  Also, I was unable to enter the building that is NE of the center of the map, I guess I am missing a key card or something?  How do the key cards work?  I currently have two of them.

One other thing, can you restrict the mouse pointer to the screen?  It seems like the pointer goes beyond the edges of the screen and it can be difficult to make it come back on the screen.

Btw. do you have any yt channel where you uploading your gameplays?

No, I don't have a YouTube channel.

I've actually played the game and finished it several times now.  I see that the money/gold is not really needed once you get the hang of the game, unless you want to change the color of your guy or your horse .  Or if you want the car, but I haven't really found a good use for it as it is too fast and unwieldy (but perhaps there is a secret use?).

I think placing the pizza place right near the free water kind of defeats the purpose.  Who's going to pay when they can run over a little ways and get it for free?

I'm also wondering what the purpose of the Benio? Dog house? Near your "home" is.  I haven't been able to figure that one out.  (I think I saw in the video of the ALPHA there was a dog bone, but I haven't found one of those.)

One other question I did have is did you mean to use the word "Diner" instead of "Dinner"?  It seems like "Diner" makes more sense.

I am very impressed with what you have accomplished!  It is really a very good game, and could be great with a bit more to do, like missions and stuff.  You have the basics for a great game here.


Did you make this game using your own engine?  I'm particularly impressed with the size of the executable compared to how much game is included.  15MB for this game seem ridiculously small considering how nice it is and it also seems very resource efficient.  If I alt-tab to use other program while it's running, I barely even know it's still there (which is good because there is no save-game feature).  This is not the case with so many other games that use standard game engines that seem to be very inefficient.

EDIT: Just realized you are using Clickteam Fusion for the game engine, seems like a pretty good tool.

Thanks for your comments!

After death, there is a time interval of one second where you cannot press the button. The guards' bullets can't do anything to you. There is a problem with this door on the northeast, I don't know how to fix it, you have to stand on the left side of the door, then the card will work, there is only money inside. I had to remove the part of the helicopter game because it used too much memory, it took us to a separate part of the map where, together with the released dragon, we had to fight a black dragon, maybe I'll make an addition one day ;)

The after-death change is not working for me, or at least I am still inadvertently selecting one of the options on the menu when I was in a firefight just before dying.  Also, like I said, selecting the "Main menu" option results in the program exiting/crashing now (it didn't on the older version).

That's too bad about having to remove those elements from the game, it makes it a little confusing not knowing if you missed something or not, but at least now I know.  :-)  Did you also remove the bone/doghouse thing?  I saw that in the ALPHA video of the game.


Gameplay is king, and I think you've done a great job!  If you can make a small, efficient game like this that packs as much gameplay as this does, you are doing it right.

Thanks, you can find the bone in the cave near cemetery and take it to the dog, it was supposed to be a mini-game of throwing a stick to the dog, but I also deleted it because the dog didn't look good in such small pixels :p But you can give him the bone ;)

Cave by the cemetery?  I looked all around the cemetery (which drones seem to like way too much) and can't find what you mean.  Is it a hidden cave or one of the regular "indoor" areas?

Check out gameplay :)

Loving how others feel the GTA vibe, it's how I felt when I first experienced Jarp's games.  Amazing. Dreamed of making a GTA 2D type game with a strong story and this inspires me daily (or at least when i get the time!)  Just bought it, bargain for $10

Thank you for kind word and payment, it really help 🙂

GTA 2 meets Fallout :D

perfect combination for me :p

It will be cool with some rpg elements!

Reminds me old gta :D

Thats why I made it :D

Can not wait to wrap up work and get home to play this. Amazing stuff

Thanks man, let me know what you think ;)
