Free video game “Schiaffi & Fagioli” v0.8 for Windows, an unofficial tribute to Bud Spencer and Terence Hill. Made for a Spaghetti Western Jam of indipendent Italian programmers and published on itch.io (also for Macintosh). The commercial and authorized game “Slaps and Beans” was derived from this demo.
Another thing that really makes Schiaffi & Fagioli enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Schiaffi & Fagioli. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
