I learned about West of Loathing [Steam, Official Site] recently from Twitter and it seems like it could be a pretty amusing game, it release with Linux support on the 10th of August.
Anyone else's eyes hurt after attempting to watch that? I suppose that's one way to do a trailer...
You will be punching skeletons wearing cowboy hats, customizing your stick-figure character, collecting over 50 hats and hopefully laughing at the jokes.
What's interesting, is that is has a turn-based combat, but it seems like the combat might be optional.

About the game
QuoteSay howdy to West of Loathing -- a single-player slapstick comedy adventure role-playing game set in the wild west of the Kingdom of Loathing universe. Traverse snake-infested gulches, punch skeletons wearing cowboy hats, grapple with demon cows, and investigate a wide variety of disgusting spittoons.Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
Talk your way out of trouble as a silver-tongued Snake Oiler, plumb the refried mysteries of the cosmos as a wise and subtle Beanslinger, or let your fists do the talking as a fierce Cow Puncher. Explore a vast open world and encounter a colorful cast of characters, some of whom are good, many of whom are bad, and a few of whom are ugly.

I'll wait for some in depth reviews, but this has my attention. I love a good RPG, I find the art style charming, and it's been a long time since I have played a good western.

Yes it is. The graphic style, the title - couldn't be a coincidence. It's even advertised on the website: https://www.kingdomofloathing.com/
It's a fun free browser game, for those who don't know. Try it. ;-)

Description says "set in the wild west of the Kingdom of Loathing universe" so I would suspect so.

I enjoyed kol's jokes so much, this one will be an instant-buy, and even if it's just half as good, I'll be happy
