Name that game...
« on: September 14, 2009, 12:58:50 pm »
 I'm trying to remember what this game I used to play is called.
90's era game where you're a crazy cowboy. You can move across the bottom of the screen left to right and a short axis of front to back to dodge an onslaught of arrows and whatnot...
Basically you vs. ahem. Native Americans*. You can throw dynamite and acquire various guns. Play is vertical and you just battle it out on each stage.
One stage had a locomotive that weaves towards you from the top of the screen.
So what the heck is it called?

*I have nothing but love for the original inhabitants of our country, I just like this game.

Thanks!

At the end of each stage the cowboy does a kooky dance vertically off towards the top of the screen.
Another one of the early stages is fought in a canyon where rope bridges span horizontally across the screen, maybe in front of a waterfall?
Sorry if this is vague..but that's what i've got for now.

hmm what kinda controls did it use? toy stick? how many buttons?

you said play is vertical but do you mean the monitor is vertical? the play could be vertical and still be a horizontal oriented monitor is why i ask.

if you remember who manufactured it that would be a lot of help.

the hooky dance thing reminds me of cabal.. but that is army men and not cowboys.
Anyone got change for a dollar?
PLEASE HELP NEED Fastmame .70 and .9* releases

Controls I believe were just an 8 way stick and two buttons for each player. (two player game).
Not Indian Battle or Cowboys of Moo Mesa..LOL
Thanks for playing though.
