About: Gundown an oldschool arcade game at heart, where you must obliterate every soldier, ship, motorcycle or pixel that moves by controlling your artillery contraption. Use upgrades between rounds to beef up your firepower. Addictive!

Description

Gundown was a game born from boredom (on the author's end!), and ironically provides quite the opposite!

Liberally taking aspects from popular arcade games like Space Invaders and the likes, Gundown borrows the similar gamestyle but adds in its own unique style of elements, such as: angled shots which require more tactic on the player's behalf, firepower upgrades to leave more destruction, and plenty of particle effects to keep the player's bloodlust at bay. :)

Controls are simple to use, and the gameplay is simple to grasp. Gundown is a game that is simple enough to get used to, but offers a continually challenge experience.
