About Gun Mayhem

Gun Mayhem is an arena shooter that brings platform-fighter mechanics to a 2D environment. You and up to three friends spawn into a floating stage with a simple objective: shoot everyone else until they fall off the screen. Every hit you take increases your knockback, turning standard pistols and machine guns into tools for pushing your opponents over the edge.

The matches are chaotic and fast-paced, especially when four players are huddled around a single keyboard. Crates regularly drop from the sky to shake up the balance, giving you random access to powerful weapons like sniper rifles, shotguns, and explosive launchers. Between rounds, you can customize your character's appearance and tweak your loadout perks to suit your playstyle.

Controls

Default controls for Player 1 and Player 2:

  • Movement: Arrow Keys (P1) or WASD (P2)
  • Jump: Up Arrow (P1) or W (P2). Press twice to double jump.
  • Shoot: Left Bracket [ (P1) or T (P2)
  • Drop Bomb: Right Bracket ] (P1) or Y (P2)

Tips

  • Control the center: The closer you are to the middle of the arena, the harder it is for opponents to knock you into the blast zone.
  • Save your double jump: Don't use your second jump offensively if you can help it. Keep it ready to recover if you get blasted off the edge.
  • Use bombs for edge guarding: If an enemy is trying to jump back onto the stage, dropping a bomb near the ledge is a great way to secure the elimination.

Whether you are working through the campaign challenges or setting up custom matches with friends, this shooter delivers a tight, competitive experience that holds up well for quick sessions.
