Over the course of the hour it takes to complete, Gunman Clive constantly introduces you to new concepts and mechanics in each bitesize level, but not all of these are executed to the same standard. Some are good fun while others aren’t as polished whether it be through environmental objects not consistently interacting as expected or uninspired level design. Though the aesthetic is very plain, there is something strangely charming about the wild west theme the game runs with and the classic save the damsel in distress story. A nice touch are the additional unlockable characters adding a bit of replay value and variety to proceedings. Gunman Clive is a decent platformer especially considering it was the work of one man, but it doesn’t do enough to separate itself from the countless alternatives on the market.
