Luckslinger is a hip-hop infused spaghetti western action platformer developed by Duckbridge (Not to be confused with the in-game character). It started out as a prototype on Newgrounds as a test for the ‘luck mechanic’ (see below), and from there they continued to build upon that into the full game that is available on Steam and Humble Store.
In Luckslinger, luck is a collectable and usable whenever you please. For example, when the player is lucky enough, enemy bullets can be deflected, your trusty duck companion will grab some health for you, or platforms spawning just before you fall to your death. However, when you’re unlucky, bridges might collapse, rocks might fall on your head, or more enemies might spawn.
This game also has a demo you can check out!
The LP
This will be an informative LP with each update coming in two parts.
