Blast, jump, and dominate the stage in this explosive arena shooter where only the last player standing survives!
Dive headfirst into the chaotic world of Gun Mayhem, a lightning-fast platform fighter that pits you against relentless AI opponents or up to three friends in local multiplayer mayhem. Developed by Kevin Gu and Arvin Eksiri, this game redefines the platform shooter genre by making elimination, rather than health depletion, the ultimate goal. Customize your character, select your starting handgun, and prepare for a gravity-defying battle royale.
The core objective is brutally simple yet intensely challenging: utilize a massive arsenal of weaponry to launch your opponents completely off the arena platform. From deadly shotguns that deliver huge knockback to rapid-fire machine guns, mastering weapon recoil and stage hazards is the key to victory. Quick reflexes and precise platforming are essential to outmaneuver rivals and secure lethal shots.
Engage in the challenging Campaign mode to conquer increasing AI difficulty and unlock advanced customization options, or jump straight into Custom games for endless player-versus-player action. Gun Mayhem delivers an addictive blend of strategy and adrenaline, constantly pushing players to test their limits and achieve ultimate arena domination.
SHOOTER GAMEPLAY
Gun Mayhem focuses on frantic, vertical platform combat. Players spawn on dynamic stages filled with temporary weapon drops and environmental hazards. Unlike typical shooters, the goal is not to drain a life meter but to inflict enough knockback to launch your rivals into the surrounding abyss or death zones. You must strategically position yourself to gain the high ground and deliver powerful launching attacks.
Before each match, players choose powerful Perks that influence their combat style, such as gaining extra speed, completely removing weapon recoil, or increasing ammunition capacity. Success requires adapting your perk selection to the map layout and your preferred weapon type. Utilize the double jump feature for evasion and critical platform recoveries after taking a heavy hit.
The game offers robust replayability through its Campaign mode, featuring a series of escalating challenges against various AI fighters, and highly customizable multiplayer options. By achieving high scores and completing matches, players can unlock new cosmetics like hats and shirts, ensuring their fighter looks unique while crushing the competition.

Pro Tips & Strategies
- Master the Knockback Angle: Aim for upward shots when opponents are grounded to set them up for a lethal edge guard, and use horizontal shots near the ledge to secure the knockout.
- Utilize the Bomb: The bomb is your ultimate reset button; use it defensively as an emergency recovery tool, or offensively for a massive, instant knockback on grouped enemies.
- Choose Perks Wisely: For beginners, the “No Recoil” perk significantly improves accuracy with heavy weapons, while seasoned players may benefit more from “Extra Speed” to control power-up drops.
