About the Game

Bandit is a Wild West themed action game rooted in classic arcade shoot and beat 'em ups with some added physics in the mix.

At the moment Bandit is still early in its development. We made a demo that gives a good impression of the kind of action we are exploring for this game. It feels a bit like a shoot 'em up, but looks more like a beat 'em up. We've added some physics into the mix and can confidently say that kicking TNT towards your enemies, and then shooting it, feels very satisfactory. Just make sure they don't shoot it first. Bandit is hectic and definitely tough. Let's see how long you'll last.

There is randomization in enemy placement, types and numbers. The areas are recognisable, but also different every run. Some enemies and areas are seldom seen and might even require some specific actions to unlock.

The demo has a leaderboard. Give it a try and see if you can get your name high up on the list.
