Very fun arcade shooter. Simple and pretty easy, but easily holds up both by itself as a game and as a light-weight gunslinging simulator. Showdown holds up play in such a straightforward and enjoyable way, and it also has intricate optimizations allowing crafty or fast players to squeeze extra kills out of every activation. Allowing players to spec into, or away from, showdown or gun-shooting enables players to play the game in such a way where they play their fun way more often. That's always an excellent decision to make.

Kill The Crows has some lose tolerances when it comes to collision detection, but I actually don't mind that. Sure, you'll get chipped by a stray bullet going through a fence every 2 hours or so, but you'll also be pulling off trickshots and multikills that really shouldn't be possible. It balances out more in the player's favor, but not overly so, so I like it.
