Description

Gunboat Goddamn! Get ready to shoot quickly, dodge even faster, and get to blasting in a chaotic 2D side-scrolling shoot ‘em up featuring guns, a whole boatload of freakin’ enemies, and rad tricks. It’s up to you to get the hull out of this unknown place to get back to the Citadel in the sky. Here’s to hoping you’ve got a plan to go with that Gunboat!

Master 100’s of frantic ‘just one more go’ missions as you hone your skills to become the all-powerful Gunboat God. Return with new weapons, abilities, and quick fingers to push your high score ever higher.

What would a Gunboat be without… GUNS! Good job you’re surrounded by water because you’ve got a hell of a lot of FIREPOWER!

Cannons, lasers, bombs and… [checks notes] THE VAPORISER?! Expand and upgrade your artillery in multiple ways including unique super moves, bigger explosions, and harder-hitting shots.

What the hell is that?! Looks like the depths of the ocean contain great evils, thankfully you’ve got greater artillery.

Take on challenging bosses in multi-phase battles that put your surfing, shooting, and smashing skills to the ultimate test. It’ll take quick control and mastery of your gunboat to put those… things, back where they belong, leagues beneath the surface!

What’s better than shooting stuff? Looking cool while you do it! Dash, crash, and bash enemies who get in your way.

Transform your gunboat on the fly to plunge to new depths and soar to new heights. With mines below the surface and acid rain above, it's up to you to take control of the damn situation, now ain’t the time to buckle under pressure!

It’s dangerous to go alone, thankfully you’ve got Yeti, the best crocodile mechanic and all-round good guy you could ask for!

Aid him on his journey to crank up your Gunboat to the max and you can bet he’ll do his darndest to get you back home.

At the moment, I can’t leave a positive review (even though I reaaaaally would like to, because this game is shaping up to be my favorite indie title of the year). The main reasons why: 1. The enemies are black, the

This game is disappointing me. I don't regret spending $10 on this, I'm enjoying myself enough that I plan to fully complete this game. I've only played an hour so far and I plan to play it to completion, just wanted to

Addictingly fun, challenging, and unique in a few ways. I honestly thought going into this that it was going to be a pretty straight forward platformer-esque run and gun. Yet literally just the title screen slapped me

Very fun and cute. The silhouette aesthetic is incredibly creative with the creature designs and environments. With a slightly isolated but cozy and hopeful post apocalypse feel, being surrounded by water and rubble for

I found Gunboat God to be a fairly enjoyable experience, but certainly not a stand-out in the shmup genre. The game gets full points in terms of artistic direction, which is certainly what pulled me as the simple black

Just the right amount of adrenaline. And the right amount of goofy crocodile. Well, I couldn't beat the final boss without doing most of the optional stuff, so, so much of this being beatable in 8 hours.
