Informations:

The game is free, as I'm mainly looking for feedback and advice so feel free to leave some in the comment section!

It's my first game, and I worked on it for six weeks. I know it doesn't look like much, but it's a lot as I had to learn Unity and C# from scratch. I also made the pixel art.

I did not really think of a story for this game, my main idea was the life points represented by hats

But long story short, the character you play is lost in the middle of the desert while searching for gold to buy a weapon. And use it to avenge his village, destroyed by an evil golden hat wearer. Suddenly, you are ambushed, perhaps it's the evil golden hat wearer who is attacking you with his gang of henchmen? Also, the chickens are laying exploding bullets.
