Quick Look: Luckslinger

Cool, I love westerns, ducks and remixes.

Holland is part of The Netherlands, Holland is not the entire Netherlands.

Atmosphere is two people: Slug, the rapper, and Ant, the producer/DJ.

Westerado II: Legend of Link.

Ah yes, Longshot the video game.

Wasn't this supposed to be up at 9am?

Yup, probably some technical problems.

I want this Quick Look to go on forever!

A Hip-Hop themed western. Considering I rate myself one of the universe's biggest Afro Samurai fans, this game is already one of my favorites of the year.

So happy my man Austin gave this the attention it deserves! RIP to Dilla of course.

I said it on the debut trailer, and I will say it now: Little by little all of my wildest video game dreams are coming true.

Also, anybody who really digs this music and would want something similar, go check out the likes of Nujabes (RIP again sadly), Fat Jon, DJ Shadow, and of course J. to tha Dilla. Beautiful Hip-Hop instrumental music all around!

As someone who has the soundtrack of The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly on vinyl, I feel like I am somewhat obligated to try this game. It looks cool. And I like the, "When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk," reference.

cool

Live in a city formerly known as New Amsterdam, don't know the difference between Holland and the Netherlands. For shame! Shame, I say!

@ravelle: @loktarogar: To be fair, nothing outside of Holland in the Netherlands actually matters.

These beats are tickling my fancy somethin' fierce

Bought it straight away.

Edit: Also mentioning the Menahan Street Band!

Awesome Quick Look. Thanks Austin!

Maybe they got Jimmy Hart to compose their fake Fugees song

I don't know - I don't really want to play this game, but these hot tracks...

Maybe I can just buy the soundtrack somewhere?

@focks_macleod: I was gonna say pretty sure Slug is the rapper, I wasn't sure though cuz I just know of him from a friend who was obsessed over his stuff a few years ago.

I love that they put character close-ups in the dialogue at about 23:45.

I can't understand how the wu-tang x western group is called. Anybody help me out?

I cannot for the life of me understand what Austin is trying to say at the end when he mentions a band. Can anyone help me? It's right around the 40 minute mark.

Bass Reeves is back and he brought THE BASS.

@ectoplasma: They are the Menahan Street Band, and Austin is right about everything he said describing them. ENJOY!

@drpockets000

oh my god its a mole digging through the wall, not a duck face

This looks rad

You realise that people in the Netherlands often refer to it as 'Holland' too, right? (I'm dutch)

What's the name of the band that Austin mentions at the end? I can't hear what he says!

@austin_walker

Technically, The Netherlands is divided into 12 provinces, 2 of which are 'Holland' (North Holland and South Holland)

In practice , The dutch people use Holland and The Netherlands interchangeably. Especially in sport events, people like to cheer for 'Holland', even if they don't live in the 'holland' part of the Netherlands.

The music got me interested. The tutorial message reference to The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly damn well sold me

Is this a sequel to Lisa?

The deep Nujabes feel to the music and the zany Luck stat outside an RPG has me intrigued...

@kubqo: Yeah, I got a big Lisa vibe from this too which is strange because except for the sidescrolling aspect they're not at all similar.

@jessejames: I dig it.

This looks right up my alley. Thanks guys

Cool, glad to see this game get some light. I did my own little look at this game on my youtube channel. Its pretty fun.

Ok, this is pretty dope. I'm getting it.

@loyalist_pig: Menahan Street Band, think he's talking about their album "The Crossing"

@eggheaded You're the bomb, man, thanks!

Yay! A Menahan Street Band mention! I consider music from both them & The Budos Band as songs that make everything you do feel so much cooler (such as working, eating, night drives, etc.). That plus the sense of humor makes it pretty purchase-worthy for me.

Menahan Street Band also had the best song in Sleeping Dogs.

The references to Sergio Leone movies are the only thing that appeals to me about this.

Yo this looks dope. Ima check it out. I really like the soundtrack too. I pretty much down for anything that combines westerns and hiphop (or samurai and hiphop). Not enough of that either.

Finally! An indie 2D action platformer!

Although this is pretty stylish, and the music is nice...

@alex - 25:48 - Snakes have many bones and full skeletons; in fact, they are very much vertebrate reptiles. (Snakes can have anywhere between 600 and 1200 bones, up to almost 6 times the number of bones in a human body!)

Also, this game looks and sounds pretty rad.

I was into the music at first, then I realized the entire level was one 5 second loop on repeat and it got old real fast

This game looks awesome as hell. I also appreciated the Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels reference in the tutorial.

Yeah I'm dutch too and I'm using Holland too when people ask where I'm from since not every seem to be understand what I'm saying when I say The Netherlands, non English speaking.

My vinyl crates and samplers approve so hard of the music.

I wonder if the priest is supposed to be Petey Greene or a reference to him at least?

Burrying the guy was defintely the right choice. Alwas listen to Vinny!

lmao I realy liked vinny's tossed off "There are other worlds than these" wrt the snake suicide. Was not expecting a dark tower reference in this ql.
