EDIT: This game is more fun than I originally thought it would be based on the first impression. And THEY FIXED THE BUGGED ACHIEVEMENTS! I’ll lever my first review for people to see my first impression, but just know that it’s better than I thought it would be after that first hour. Getting new guns is fun, and they really change up how you play. That made all the difference from it being a good time waster to being a legit just good game.

It’s a good, if somewhat basic game. Nice throw back title that I don’t think would be fun to play for hours on end, but to fire it up and spend a little time with it here and there, it’s perfect for that.

i didn’t want to give a negative review because it’s free and only 1MB ! but the keyboard isn’t working on menu although player can play with keyboard. second thing is i used controller but there is no shooting! it’s only works on mouse,and it’s really slow it takes time between each shot but the enemy is shot shot like it’s machine gun! ok let me add some good thing about this game. it’s only 1MB but it has different map,gun,and characters!

developer fix this game!

5/10

Riding Shotgun is a free 2D retro pixel platformer shooter with a gimmick, it’s local multiplayer co-op, one player jumps and moves, the other aims and shoots.

The game was made with the godawful GameMaker Studio game construction kit from Yoyogames. It looks like the developers copied the basic platformer/shooter template and changed the controls so that it’s more usable for 2 player. GameMaker Studio is a terrible game construction kit, so it’s no surprised that games made with it are terrible quality, and Riding Shotgun is no exception.

Sometimes you unexpectedly find a real gem. This game is such a hidden gem. A small, but very polished game that I never heard of before, but understood in seconds and had fun with immediately!

The premise is simple: Kill your opponents, like in Towerfall or Duck Games. You got only one bullet. After shooting it, you have to retrieve it before you can shoot again. The different levels contain death traps, like spikes or lava. Also each character can choose a super ability, like the possibility to kill opponents by jumping on their heads. You also have a few options to select and gamemodes to choose from - and then the fun starts!

Real player with 5.6 hrs in game

An awesome multiplayer game to play with your friends, to a good price too. There’s even possiblity to play online with Parsec!

A brilliant game with friends. I must have played 200+ matches and no two have been the same. Great balancing system and a sprinkling of luck built-in to ensure matches are competitive while still giving the edge to the more skilled players.

TLDR good game though modding makes it even better

Base game.

If i had to choose a game that i will play and is pvp 1v1 this is almost always one of the best choices to make.

This game has all of the greatness of stick fight but with little to none of the issues.

Simply put this game is pretty good by default.

Modded game.

Do you have slight issues with something then why not try playing without it.

Would like to try some thing wacky go for it.

Would you like picking 5 cards at the very start and at the end of EACH round you got it. (can get 25 cards in 1 match).
