    This is a really nice video. Usually, game dev videos already start with the idea build, but you showed your process to come up with the idea. And explaining what you did, almost step by step (this isn't a tutorial after all) made the video even better. Keep up the good work mate!

They can see a LOT of colors, just not nearly as many. My vision is essentially shades of blue and yellow. The characters looked like 3 distinct colors to me. Blue, red (which I see as “dark yellow” or brown”) and green (which I see as yellow).

    In the next update you should make them really slowly wander cause several times there were multiple hiding behind another. You could also spawn the outlaw first and make sure everything else is a certain distance away. Maybe the WANTED box should pop each time it changes, or get pulled off and another one gets added. (The decrease of the timer should be like 1-2 seconds, so it prevents spam, but currently its so annoying to miss and then hit them, and have to search again with to timer increase)
