Skip it if you…

- Players looking for crafting, stealth, or tower-defense systems may find the described gameplay scope narrow
Our take on DEAD GUN
Players may bounce when reaching the deepest parts of a location, where bosses block the way out. That encounter structure can also stop those seeking a platformer focused mainly on movement rather than defeating enemy hordes and major foes.
What is DEAD GUN?
Control a soldier from the elite Z-800 squad during an operation to clear friendly worlds of enemies.
DEAD GUN combines 2D platforming with roguelike elements as the character moves through locations occupied by monsters. The game includes modern weapons for destroying enemy hordes. Bosses wait in the deepest parts of locations and block the route out, adding major encounters to the operation. The stated objective is to save the affected worlds by defeating their hostile inhabitants and reaching the areas where the bosses have settled.
