I wasn't going to post a review today as things are still up in the air following my wife's collapse at work last Friday. Also, I had my second ever flu and first pneumonia vaccines yesterday morning and now feel like my head is going to explode and I'm running a temperature of 101 and rising slowly; (a increase in body temperature facilitates the bodies immune and repair systems. .
I was intending just to post a few images and the security scan, but I found the game mildly entertaining and easy to write up, plus I've been up all night unable to sleep, so, couldn't help myself. ;)

In Brief:
Cowboy Girl is a simple arcade shooter where you move Cowgirl left and right into one of five lanes, avoiding the cacti and picking up the different coloured bullets (Blue, Green and Yellow). When a red target reticule appears use the space bar to shoot the first giant cactus. The reticule disappears after you've shot, but reappears randomly. After hitting the cactus five times, you win the level. You can see the monsters red health bar at the top of the game screen. Each level has a different monster to shoot and the process is repeated again; however, each successive level becomes harder because the lane conveyors speed up. Get hit by too many cacti and you have

When you close the game down, there's no save function, so, when you restart the game you start from level one again. start the level again.

Controls:
Up and Down Arrows or W & S = select menu items
Enter = Activate menu Item
Esc = return to previous menu
Space = Restart game after losing


In Game Key Bindings:
W = Move Left
D = Move Right
Space = Shoot
Conclusion:
Clicking on the control menu item brings up a page with WASD - Space. It does not say what they do; though regular arcade aficionados will probably guess what they are used for; however, the W & S keys are not bound for the actual in game play, only for accessing menu items.

The mouse is not supported. I didn't check my controller as my head was spinning by the time I'd passed the first level, so gave up. There are ten levels to work through, so this is more like a demo; much like we used to get 20 years ago, though demos back then gave you more levels to play, or at least an hours worth of game play.

Still, in short sessions this is worth keeping, at least until you've mastered the game, at which point it may become a little tedious to play unless you leave large periods in between playing. It's definitely a coffee/tea break game for me. I will return to this once I'm feeling better.

If it was possible to set each of the five lanes to move at different speeds and randomly between the five, it would make the game more challenging.

Notes on Security
I scanned a zipped copy of the installed game using Virus Total and it found zero hits from 62 antimalware engines. You can see the scan HERE.

In todays game, you play as a young cowgirl (from texas I presume as she is loaded up to the max) who has to fight off an invading wave of 10 monsters... one at a time. Each monster glows a certain color around them which is their weakness. You move left and right using the A+D buttons and use the spacebar to fire. Collect at least 5 of the same color bullets in a row(not two different colors) to make the reticule come up and be able to cause damage to the monster when you hit the spacebar to fire. Collecting the same 5 bullets as the glowing color appears that it will cause more damage than collecting 5 bullets of a different color. The more bullets you collect before shooting, the higher the damage done and can see the monsters red health bar at the top of the game screen. In addition to bullets coming down the lanes, the player gets thorny cacti on the way that will kill you or cause the screen to be more difficult to see for a few seconds. Did I mention that the speed increases in later levels? There is no save or level select however if you hit shift you can win and skip a level immediately. All in all a decent arcade time waster with good atmosphere that is enjoyable for what it presents and worth a try when the price is on the low side due to the shorter amount of total gameplay currently. Rating: C+

Hope Stephen & His Wife both start to feel better soon

DataDragon,

Thank you for clarifying the reason for the coloured bullets. I didn't play it long enough to figure that one out. As for today, was way to ill to do anything. Just got up to check my emails. Thank you for posting, appreciated.

Hi Whiterabbit-UK I hope that things are looking up to heal better and so forth. when I had the Pneumonia shot, later in the day I was burning up bad due to a reaction that happens with some people who get it. My arm turned red in the injection site with a fever. I felt even more yucky with the COVID vaxes.

In the mean time when I checked out todays game it looked like it was going to be one of those run and jump kind of games. But then I simply saw item scrolling down from top to bottom. Of all the minutes I've played it I am still unlclear on the objective, even after reading your review :)

The keys move around the character but I am not convinced the space bar does anything. When I get more time I will investigate this game along with the other one that was given away on Tuesday.

sailorbear510 aka Jason,

Hi Jason,
I only played the game for about ten to fifteen minutes (not counting screen captures and note takingetc) but I presume the aim/objective of the game is to beat each of the ten monsters without losing all your health.

Once you've destroyed a monster, which took five hits on its body, you automatically moved to the next level. It's basically a simple shooter survival game .

I found the key bindings a little off for a left handed person. I had to cross my arms over to be able to fire at the monster.
