Wishlist Shoot For The Stars on Steam!

You are a gun and must ascend to the stars!

Game Design Document

FULL SCREEN RECOMMENDED

Controls:

  • Move with Mouse
    • Roll the gun around to launch yourself into the air.
  • Shoot with Mouse 1
    • Fire a bullet that gives you a small boost! Just pay attention to your shots so you don't get stuck reloading midair.
  • R to reload
  • Q to reset

NOTE: the non-web version of this game constrains your mouse to a circle around the player, giving a better movement experience. It is decent on web but the movement doesn't quite feel as satisfying.

Usually, you can't copy and paste images, you have to upload them with the far right button when commenting. Like so:

Great job! Thank you for sticking with it and playing to the end!

This was a lot of fun to play, but I must admit that I didn't get very far (likely a skill issue). :) 
I love the idea of using recoil for movement. Great job!

Thanks for giving our game a try! Means a lot!

Managed to get up to the stocks and umbrellas. Really challenging!

(+1)

Oh wow! You made it super far! Nice work!

Was I close to completing it?

Probably about half way!

Jesus christ hahaha and does it get even harder after that?

sure does 😜

Nice job that is pretty far! Umbrellas are super punishing, hard jumps rewarded by long fall. Good job though, that is further then most for sure!

(+1)

Really cool! Very difficult, but I never managed to complete "Getting Over It" either! 

Sometimes it seemed like the gun would shoot me at 90 degrees to what I was expecting but maybe there was a mechanic I just didn't get?

we actually constrained the mouse in a radius around the player but on the web version it doesn’t work due to browser security stuff which is unfortunate. The actual version feels so much better.

This is really good! I hope you rank high :D
