About Gunslugs
The world is on the brink of chaos, and only the Gunslugs stand between order and total destruction! The evil Black Duck Army has unleashed its forces, armed with high-tech weaponry and a legion of relentless foot soldiers. Your mission? Blast, jump, and survive through a non-stop barrage of mayhem, traversing plane yards, jungles, frozen wastelands, ancient tombs, and even the fiery depths of Hell itself.

With procedurally generated levels, every run is a fresh fight for survival. Armed with an arsenal of absurd weapons—including the legendary chicken gun—you’ll commandeer tanks, soar with jetpacks, and unleash maximum carnage against the enemy hordes. But beware! You’ve only got one life, and true Gunslugs know that every step could be their last… unless you strike a deal with a certain voodoo priest.

Unlock a wild roster of familiar heroes, gather coins to snag upgrades, and dive into secret mini-games inspired by gaming’s golden age—think Donkey Kong-style platforming, Game Boy throwbacks, sketchbook worlds, and even an encounter with a mysterious time traveler in a blue box. Can you push forward, survive the madness, and shut the gates of Hell for good?

The Black Duck Army isn’t waiting—lock, load, and let the chaos begin!

Used to play this all the time on my 3DS as a kid. Holds up pretty well as a balls-to-butts Metal Slug clone, especially for $0.99
