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

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".

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; …

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.
