Buckaroo Dragoneer

“To the west you ride, punching holes through the legions of living garbage, and keep running. Away from those slimy beasts, and away from other strangeness  you will surely encounter. Only by reaching the fabled Point of Heaven, you might just survive the Wasting.”

This was made PIGsquad's August Summer Slow Jam: Parody

Inspired by the Panzer Dragoon games, but instead of flying dragons and lasers, it is  cowboys riding atop of land based dragons, with bullets! Add in some bits and pieces from the Cairn TTRPG, and swirl vigorously into one glorious fever dream!  

You have a point crawling adventure, running through levels on top of a dragon, guns blazing, fighting sentient alien garbage! 

A Buckaroo Dragoneer, is a gunslinger riding a top of telepathically linked dragon, which has EVEN MORE GUNS.

I don't think I wrote it down in the document, but the effective HP for the Buckaroo during encounters is their Max HP + their Dragon's HP bonus!

Outside of the mechanics and inspiration I have cribbed from:

The rest of the work was done as a solo developer.

While I wasn't able to finish EVERYTHING by the deadline, I will be continuing to work on this strange project. There is more I want to do with this, as it evolves I will be uploading a "Living" Version that will be slowly updated!
