Step into the role of a steampunk gunslinger with a mechanical arm and loads of enhanced weaponry at your disposal. The Legend of Cyber Cowboy is a top-down twin-stick shooter presented in slick pixel art style.

    Blast through waves of cyborg baddies and mechanical monsters in monocles and top hats as you explore dozens of procedurally generated rooms that change with each run to keep you on your leather booted toes. Destroy objects or use them for cover. Collect valuable energy tokens to purchase new weapons at shops. Use energy bursts to dash and dodge. Then prepare for a showdown with huge bosses in bullet hell shootouts.

    The Legend of Cyber Cowboy is a twin-stick shooter with some minor roguelite elements. However, the gameplay lacks balance and this causes frustration. The developer needs to balance the weapons otherwise people will rage quit and uninstall it extremely quickly. Despite the issues, I kept at it and enjoyed the fun, albeit challenging action.

    I can’t help but feel that The Legend of Cyber Cowboy is very much the definition of “Okay”. It isn’t the worst game in the world, nor is it the best, instead landing very much in the middle of the road. There is a stiff challenge to be had, which is mostly down to the dodgy aiming, but the bosses add another layer of difficulty.

    There are so many awesome twin-stick shooters out there that playing The Legend of Cyber Cowboy frankly feels insulting.
