Barterin Buckaroo
You’re the rootin-est tootin-est cowboy known to Swamp Gulch… that is until you gambled away all your cowboy-ly possessions in a night of cards and drinking.
Make your way through town. Reclaim your stuff. Become the cowboy you know you are.
Barterin’ Buckaroo is a point and click puzzle game reminiscent of the point and clicks from the 1990s and early 2000s. Part logic, part absolute nonsense, we hope you enjoy this rootin’ tootin’ romp around the dusty town of Swamp Gultch and trading with its colorful cast of denizens.
Made for LD45, "Start with nothing."

This was a fun little game, I enjoyed the dynamic of figuring out the the implied value of items, whilst keeping in mind the preferences of the wacky characters (a bird!?). There was a point where I had to trade down in value to get a more a appropriate item to trade back up in value for Slug's stock, which was very cool.
Only a minor issue in text wrapping past the edges of the box for a few lines of dialogue, otherwise technically sound!
Lovely humour and usage of the LD theme ("Snake Oil" had me chuckle). Overall a short but enjoyable game. Yeehaw!
