About Recoil

Recoil is a unique action-puzzle game where your only method of movement is the kickback from your own weapons. Instead of walking and jumping, you must fire your gun to propel yourself in the opposite direction. The goal is to eradicate every pink virus in the level without falling off the screen or touching deadly spikes.

The challenge comes from managing your momentum and adapting to a constantly shifting arsenal. Every few levels, you are handed a new weapon with entirely different physics. A standard pistol provides reliable, predictable hops, while a shotgun blast might launch you violently across the map. Understanding how each gun moves you is the key to surviving the increasingly complex hazard courses.

Controls

  • Mouse / Touch: Click or tap anywhere on the screen to shoot. Your character will be pushed in the exact opposite direction of your shot.

Tips

  • Pace your shots: Spamming the trigger often leads to losing control. Fire once, see where your momentum carries you, and shoot again only to correct your course.
  • Use walls to brake: If you are flying dangerously fast toward a hazard, shoot away from a nearby wall to push yourself into it, using the collision to kill your speed.
  • Learn the arsenal: Treat the minigun like a jetpack by holding down the fire button, but remember that slower-firing weapons like the sniper rifle require deliberate, single-shot planning.
