About Geometry Gunner

Geometry Gunner pits you against a crowd of enemy squares that want nothing more than to reach you. Your character moves around the screen while aiming and shooting, and every square destroyed is one fewer thing closing in. Getting hit is what you must avoid, so movement and aim have to work together: escape with WASD, point with the mouse, and bring each square down before it arrives.

The game is split into levels, and each one makes the squares faster, smarter and harder to beat. The early stages are a chance to settle into the two-handed controls before the pressure rises. Quick reactions help, but strategy counts as well, since where you stand and which square you deal with first decide whether a level is cleared. The play area is a wide landscape screen.

How to play Geometry Gunner

Objective

Move with WASD and aim with the mouse to shoot down the enemy squares before they reach you, surviving each level as they grow faster and smarter.

Controls

Desktop

  • WASD: move your character around the screen
  • Mouse: aim at the enemy squares

Getting started

  1. Rest one hand on the WASD keys and the other on the mouse, since the game uses both together.
  2. Start the first level and move with WASD to keep space between your character and the squares.
  3. Aim the mouse at the nearest square and shoot it down before it can reach you.
  4. Clear the level, then expect the squares in the next one to be faster, smarter and harder to beat.

Tips

  • Keep moving with WASD even while aiming; standing still lets the squares close the gap, and avoiding hits is the core of the game.
  • Deal with the squares nearest to you first. The goal is to shoot them before they reach you, so distant ones can wait a moment.
  • Every level makes the squares faster and smarter, so practise moving and aiming at the same time early, while the opening levels are still forgiving.

Geometry Gunner FAQ

What are the controls in Geometry Gunner?

WASD moves your character around the screen and the mouse aims at the enemy squares. Both are used at once, so one hand steers while the other points at whichever square is the biggest threat.

What are the enemies in Geometry Gunner?

Squares. They come after your character, and the goal is to shoot them down before they can reach you while avoiding being hit. With each level they become faster, smarter and harder to beat.

Can Geometry Gunner be played on a phone?

It is marked as phone-friendly, but the only controls described are a mouse for aiming and WASD for moving, so a computer with both is the most dependable way to play it.
