A 1v1 local fighting game that strips combat down to its rawest form. Set in a bare room, players engage in intense fights over possession of a gun and its ammunition.

Features

  • Fast, high-stakes matches where a single misstep can change everything
  • Every match starts with the drop of a gun and a single piece of ammo
  • Easy to learn, difficult to master
  • Tournament mode with Single Elimination or Round Robin brackets for up to 32 players
  • Arcade mode with "Paid" and "Free Play" options, attract screens and a simplified UI

The arcade cabinet

The game's custom arcade machine was built by Mark Kleeb and Michael Consoli, with a marquee by Warren Hwang. It can be played at Wonderville in NYC, and the game is part of the Arcade Commons collective.
