Game Features #
- Stamina system! The bar on the right indicates how tired you are from the canyon heat! You lose stamina every second just from how hot it is. Additionally, taking a step or getting hurt by alien attacks also reduces your stamina. Pick up the pink orbs dropped by barrels or aliens to refresh yourself!
- Ammo system! Your revolver can only hold 6 rounds at a time! Refill it by collecting ammo packs found on the ground or in barrels.
- Rescue cows! Aliens are hungry for beef and will explode near cows! Run into cows to score points and put them safely in your pocket.
- Endless canyon! As long as you can beat the heat, the canyon just keeps going!
