Cowboy Mode

Take control of  7 anthropomorphic Donkey-Men Cowboys in this hybrid turn-based/real-time strategy game and defend a wild-west town from an attacking group of bandits.  

This game was made for the Bigmode Game Jam 2023. Speaking to the theme of ‘Mode’ you can switch your characters between ‘Cowboy Mode’ and ‘Donkey Mode’ which have different effects. 

How to play:

At the beginning of your turn, you will see a number of your characters. 

Selecting a character you will be asked if you wish to have that character swap between Cowboy and Donkey mode.  You then enter Action Mode and can move that unit about and make an Attack if eligible.  You can end your turn at anytime in Command Mode or it will automatically end when you use all your command bar.

Position your cowboys intelligently so that they can perform counter-attacks and interception attacks on the bandits, but be wary, the same can be done to you if you move carelessly.
