About Xenogunner

\The power of Xenonature..\

In the future year of 2011, Zeta Reak, kind, gentle king of the Xenolians, is overthrown by a powerful tyrant named the "Xenogunner".

The Xenogunner is a mysterious being capable of many frightening feats, using a power known as "Xenonature", a powerful energy that grants one trained in the use of it many elemental and non-elemental powers.

Zeta, too, is gifted with the powers of Xenonature. It's up to Zeta to overthrow the Xenogunner and reclaim the throne...

...but is the Xenogunner actually the one pulling the strings...?

Intense Boss Battles!

Xenogunner is an intense boss-focused run-and-gun platformer based on games from the days of 16-bit consoles. With the addition of conveniences like mouse aiming and highly customizable difficulty settings, we believe that we've truly modernized a classic game genre that started in decades long since past.

The stages are short, the bosses are challenging, varied, and tense, and we give you as many lives as you'll need... because you'll need as many lives as you can get! Can Zeta best the Xenogunner...? Only you can guide him to victory!

pretty cool game. feels kind of half-baked still (not due to lack of achievements but idk overall) somehow felt short and easy, though it's not easy at all actually xd at a baseline, checkpoint system doesn't really force you to get too grippy with more difficult bosses (game literally checkpoints you at EVERY phase change at more longer ones), and alternative to this is too tough imo - beating the whole episode (one out of 3-ish) in one sitting. kind of an overthrow. you could maybe modulate some difficulty settings but this whole thing kind of misses the point then. idk kind of felt like segments between bosses ar maybe a bit too shallow? treasure games had them kind of more challenging, in comparison graphics and music are good and familiar. overall game is fun

This game is just OKAY, treat this as a luke-warm recommendation. I bought it on sale for about 5$, and I'm not disappointed at that price. It's a HARD game, and you'll get that satisfaction from beating the tough bosses of course. However, a lot of the bosses are the cheap BS type, where their attacks come out at blistering fast speeds that are impossible to dodge well at least the first couple of times you fight them. The telegraphing of attacks are not good at all, if you compare this game to Cup Head, that game's boss attack patterns have much better telegraphing to give the proper hints you need to dodge their attacks effectively. Also a handful of bosses are just painful to play against, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about with the 2nd chapter's final boss with Zeta. Overall it's a 7/10, get it on sale, but be wary the game is hard as balls!

It's not very long and I'd argue it should be cheaper, but I had a lot of fun playing this. The controls are tight, it has a nice art style, the music is pretty good and the story is not bad either. If it's on sale, definitely buy it and give it a shot. If you're into action platformers, you'll definitely enjoy this one.

I Got to stream this one on the official Clickteam YouTube Channel! Fantastic retro vibes all around. Good art, good music, good gameplay, just REALLY hard but that might be a skill issue on my part xD

This is a very fun game but most of my playtime is on my switch now that I no longer have a windows system. Great Boss rush game with responsive controls, fantastic art style, and amazing music. The story is on the simple side but definitely still a blast to play.

A hidden gem straight from the Mega Drive
