"The Dancing Cowboy never stops dancing, even when he is protecting a village." In yl1204's Dancing Cowboy, you spin with the crank to aim at bandits and stop at the right moment to wipe out the targets. Spin further and you throw a lasso that pulls you to safety from dynamite. The goal is simple: "How long can you dance?"

It's free on itch.io as a small sideload (257 kB), first published on 12 October. Its itch.io status is "In development", so expect an early build. The page says plainly: "This game contains the output of Generative AI." Its AI disclosure lists code, graphics, sounds and text. Our game page: games/dancing-cowboy.
