A take on the Hotline Miami set in the wild west but with enough difference to set it apart.
The game is a top down fast paced shooter. One mistake and you're done. Levels are fairly short so if you do fail restarting is easy.
The presentation is black and white in a hand drawn style. While look cool on the screenshots it's sometimes hard to read. Especially that the view is completly over the top it's hard to make out what's a prop and what's an enemy.
You play as a gunsligner mexican on a mission to... I don't know - had completly no interest in the story and skipped most of the dialogs pretty soon. It's a wild west and you get to shoot some indians and bandits - it's as cliche as it gets.
The combat is not bad. The main distinction from Hotline Miami is instead of a gun you get two. You don't swap them that often. Also the melee weapons are useless. What is interesting is that you do need to cock the gun before taking each shot. Which means that you don't get to spam single button - you need to alternate and …

What is interesting is that you do need to cock the gun before taking each shot. Which means that you don't get to spam single button - you need to alternate and watch the ammo count. Since the revolver will be your main weapon most of the times having six shots with a rather slow per round reload makes a huge difference in the game.
The controls are not completly obvious and it took time to get use to.
Overall the game was fun. Not super fun and dragged a little in the end. Especially given certain levels that were meant to be "bandit ambushes" were simply repeating itself. The graphic choices made it sometime hard to read what's going on but it wasn't bad. Cool for an hour or two.
12>6 is a Western (the cowboy kind) version of Hotline Miami in black & white. You start in a small map filled with rooms and enemies and have to get to the end without dying. Definitely not my thing, but it seems solid.
There are some negative aspects i noticed in the ~25 minutes i played it. The b&w is stylish but makes the game lifeless. Reloading is clumsy and too vague. Worst of all is how at the end of any dialogue (which also can't be shown faster) you have to press E which is poorly indicated because it says "press E to skip".
Juego corto pero divertido. El diseño artístico en sí al principio me pareció vago debido a la monotonía, pero a medida que avanzaba no me pudo importar menos y me terminó gustando.
La historia del personaje es aburrida, los diálogos eran muy largos, a veces lo llegaba a saltear por la cantidad de texto que podía llegar a decir un solo personaje de la nada. No lo jugué en su idioma original sino traducido al español y la traducción fue nefasta, es como si lo hubiesen puesto en el traductor de Google.
En resumen es un "Hotline Miami" pero de vaqueros que tenés que sí o sí jugarlo de día o con una luz prendida porque sino es como estar jugando con una flashbang por 4 horas seguidas.
★★⯫☆☆ 2,5/5

Top-down/twin-stick indie shooter with stealth aspects that play like Hotline Miami but it's in the west. Has a very unique shooting mechanic (you have to manually cock your gun before every shot). Beautiful sketch-like white and black graphics (but sometimes enemies become indistinguishable from scenery). Good and very fitting music. DLC is unnecessarily hard (way harder than the base game; more than it should be). Overall it's a very fun and short game.
This was Pretty fun! it Basically Western Hotline Miami, And in my opinion much harder
