Squirrel with a Gun

Squirrel with a Gun is an action game full of grotesque humor. It was made in the style of absurd "simulators" - funny games like the Goat Simulator series, as well as Pigeon Simulator or Bear Simulator, among others. It was developed by indie developer Daniel DeEntremont.

Plot

In Squirrel with a Gun the story layer does not play a particularly important role. We play as the titular squirrel, who dashes through the neighborhood with a gun in his paw and goes through various adventures, helping the residents of the area or, on the contrary, making their lives miserable in various ways.

Game mechanics

In Squirrel with a Gun we observe the action from a third-person perspective (TPP). Game offers an open world, which we can freely roam; our squirrel climbs and jumps on the elements of the environment, and can also enter buildings. In the course of the game we perform various missions, in return for which we get various goodies; from time to time we also have to solve an environmental puzzle. At the same time, our rodent has to be on guard, as secret agents often sit on his tail, trying to catch him at all costs.

Fortunately, our charge is not defenseless. As the title suggests, she can handle firearms, which she uses to fight the pursuing thugs.... but not only. Indeed, the recoil of the guns, combined with the squirrel's low weight, allows us to cover considerable distances in the air. Although this requires a bit of dexterity and ingenuity, it allows us to get to places otherwise inaccessible.

Technical aspects

Squirrel with a Gun features eye-pleasing graphics. Our squirrel is realistically animated and full of fine details; moreover, a physics engine takes care of the behavior of objects, characters and the rodent.
