About

A genre-breaking fusion of Turn-Based Tactics and First Person Shooting made by a solo developer. Position your units in a detailed 3D environment and skillfully aim your shots with physics-based weapons. Collect and combine items to build unique loadouts from over 50 wacky weapons and upgrades.

A Turn-Based Tactics Roguelike where YOU aim the shots!

Campaign Mode: Challenge the single player roguelike campaign and earn powerups to defeat progressively tougher enemies.

🔫 SKILLFUL SHOOTING

In Critter Crossfire, landing the shot is up to YOU and your skill. Will you keep it safe and stick to direct line of sight, or will you go for insane trick shots to style on your opponent?

🧠 DEEP STRATEGY

Accuracy isn't the only thing that matters; strategy wins wars! Put your tactics to the test by positioning your units on the high-ground, securing the best sightlines and choosing the perfect items for any situation.

Power up your units by grabbing item boxes. Choose your items carefully to form powerful combinations and build your perfect loadout.

Flappy Gun - Shoot a flappy bird and flap to keep it in the air.
Gun Gun - A gun that shoots another gun. Aim your second shot from the skies.
Bounce Ammo - Ricochet your bullets off of obstacles to hit targets behind cover.
X-Ray Vision - See enemy units through obstacles to line up the perfect shot.
And many more!

Each map has a diverse and detailed 3D environment. The precise hitboxes on obstacles let you take your trick-shots to the next level. Master the unique level mechanics like conveyor belts and spinning gears.

A mysterious shadow creature is stirring up chaos among the critters!
Take on 16 campaign runs, each with their own unique gimmick. Make use of synergistic items to build the perfect loadout for the challenge.
Unlock new items and power up your critters to take on harder difficulties. Can you beat Monster Mode?
