About Rooftop Snipers

Rooftop Snipers is a hilarious and chaotic physics-based dueling game that tests your reflexes and timing. Developed by New Eich Games, the title strips away complex control schemes in favor of an addictive, two-button layout. Playing as pixelated snipers on various rooftops, your sole objective is to shoot your opponent and knock them off the edge of the building before they do the same to you.

What makes each round incredibly unpredictable is the combination of floppy ragdoll physics and shifting environmental hazards. Since you cannot walk forward or backward, you must rely on jumping and leaning to avoid incoming bullets and line up your shots. Every match changes the rules, introducing obstacles like falling beach balls, high winds, and moving platforms that keep the gameplay fresh and entertaining.

Controls

The game is designed for easy local multiplayer, mapping controls to just two keys per player:

Player 1 Controls

  • W Key: Jump to dodge bullets or adjust your landing position.
  • E Key: Hold to raise your sniper rifle, and release to shoot.

Player 2 Controls

  • I Key: Jump to dodge bullets or adjust your landing position.
  • O Key: Hold to raise your sniper rifle, and release to shoot.

Tips

  • Master the Recoil: Every shot you fire pushes your character backward. Be careful not to shoot when standing too close to the ledge, or you might push yourself off.
  • Dodge at the Right Moment: Watch your opponent's arms. When they raise their weapon to take aim, press the jump button to hop over their projectile.
  • Time Your Shots: Your character leans forward and backward as they move. Wait for your gun to align with the target before releasing the shoot key.
  • Adapt to the Arena: Be prepared for changing match elements, such as helicopters or rolling objects, which can block bullets or knock you off balance.
