This is awesome! Would be great to add some western style music in the background. The art style is super unique and fun.

This game is so much fun. My first playthrough I didn't notice the time slowing so I beat it without. Very cool art. Best game I've played today
Love the art style! The controls of the cart feel responsive and enjoyable. Well done on a great game!
Love the art and the gameplay <3 Had a hard time playing on my azerty keyboard though
The art is fantastic and the cart movement feels very cinematic like. Trying to deliver barrels full of dynamite was a mistake I happily repeated several times in a row. Cool explosion effect. :D
Fantastic!
One of the most polished games I've played this jam, really immaculate art design in game as well as for all the UI! Hope you keep working on this because I think it really has potential!
Amazing models, and solid gameplay. Great work!
As many others have said, the graphics are gorgeous!
I seem to be saying this on all non-Godot games, but physical keybinds would be really nice to have. QWERTY chauvinism otherwise forces all of us with alternative keyboard layouts to press buttons in weird spots on the keyboard.
The mechanics were simple but fun. The cart steering was immersive and the shooting mechanics were super satisfying. Slowing time was my favorite thing to do. It gave me such feelings of power!
Overall, really good job!
I really love the art, the bull face is so goofy I love it :heart:
Overall a very fun game experience, drifting is so satisfying and hosing the bandits with bullet is so funny!
I had a really good time !
Maybe the slow mode could be triggered more quickly. But otherwise the game is excellent!
As someone who is sensitive to noise, the gun sound effect was a little too loud and piecing for me, but this is otherwise a really cool game! I love the art so much!
Had to mute the sound to get through it, wowww what a great aesthetic and fun little gameplay loop though!
Fun game, great graphics and design! I crashed a lot though LOL Nice work!
The graphics are amazing! Controls feel precise, and I'm really thankful clipping the cart through walls doesn't explode, unlike the frontal slam.
I wish the navigation arrow was at the edge of the screen or above the cart, as with tunnel vision it's a bit difficult to pay attention to it.
It also feels like it'd be better if there were scripted (or semi-scripted) levels, raising the difficulty and having a clear task (by simply saying "need to deliver X times", and having more enemies with every level).
I don't really get the difference between packages: is it HP of the cart? I seem to be able to explode by slamming the wall with either...
As mentioned by others, the lack of a volume slider is a bit sad: I don't want to mute, I want to make it less loud.
Other than that, I can see myself playing more, especially if you plan to update!
Holy wow, brilliant art, 10/5 in that regard, such a lovely style! I love all the detail in the cart, like the skidding, the animations of the bull and how great turning feels. Though I did feel a bit worn out by the game, as I was frequently focused on shooting, then a slight steering error sends me into a wall, instant game over. I really wish this was less punishing, if it could just take off some health, or perhaps depend on what you're carrying. With how punishing the movement is, I eventually gave up on shooting, as the enemies would hit rarely enough that you could just ignore them, which is a shame really, the gunplay is quite fun. But I just couldn't handle multitasking the two and had to prioritise the greater threat. I also found the enemy respawning to be quite aggressive, I think enemies should respawn when you complete a delivery, rather than every 10ish seconds.
I did figure out the differences between the packages, but only through trial and error (crates do nothing, vases break yielding no money if you're hit, tnt instantly explodes if you're hit). I also initially thought I was getting an upgrade, because I'd just submitted the task and it felt like a reward rather than receiving the next task. I also wasn't particularly excited by the different package types, they only really augment your health, but it would've been fun if they also augmented your abilities in either positive or negative ways. Maybe a barrel of beer would throw off your aim, or maybe the dynamite could make your shots explosive (but still have the one hit KO to balance it and give risk/reward), and maybe vases could result in you taking damage if you turn too quickly, so you'd need to be careful with how you move. Things like this could help the game feel more dynamic and make it harder for players to fall into consistent, safe and boring gameplay loops.
Still though, what an awesome game! I truly can't believe your art style, it's definitely one my favourites from recent memory! I didn't have any problems with sound (why can't people just... turn down their system volume?) and despite the criticism above, I really enjoyed my time with it :heart:
Positively surprised by this game! As others have said, the gun sounds are quite jarring, and none of the bandits where able to hit me, so the HP didn't really matter as collisions with walls are an insta-kill. The riding mechanics are super fun though!
Fun little game, I love the graphics! The little cow is so cute! The cart feels really nice to control, well done
Loved the graphics and how well drifting is implemented, that's something that we couldn't quite fine tune in our game, unfortunately. Great job!
The graphics and the shooting feeling were great !!
