This game would be a lot more satisfying if there was a optional end at floor 100, maybe it could unlock some small stuff but rn its just annoying to go any further than that
Bullet Canister is OP man. Since reloading is turned off, even when it says the bullet canister is empty, I still shoot when using something like the burst triggers. So, if I were to take 5 burst and combine it with quad shot, it quickly becomes insanely overpowered. Now, take this and combine it with faster fire rate, and it becomes better. But drunken mag and grip make this better because it adds to the shot count. And finally, add the bullets that follow your curser as well as accuracy upgrades, if you switch them out for the drunken mag and grip, you can just hold your mouse in the middle of the screen and keep shooting, letting the bullets fill one area, and when it's enough, use them all to insta kill a boss. It may be less practical, but is more cool.
Another Tip: If you didn't know already you can change the difficulty if you want more of a challenge or you want to tone it down. On the start screen press this button and then you can change the difficulty. Hopefully this helped you out :D
This game is ridiculously fun. I played it a bunch on my own, but then decided to look up the "best gun" to go for. Everyone agrees on the trigger, barrel, and clip, but there weren't any guides beyond that. I made this, which helped me get to level 135 easily.
For anyone looking for a winning combination, I personally recommend 5x Burst Trigger,Quad Barrel,Arrows, and Bullet Canister. People don't usually bring up arrows, but I think that they're the best bullets to use with this combo because you can pick them up. You can use whatever stock and grip you prefer, but my advice is to use at least one item from the Bee setsince they can hit things through walls, and then something to buff your speed.
Purpose: Some could have accuracy increases, or some could allow bullets to move towards enemies, (or my personal favorite,) there could be a kind where the scope would allow you to see where an enemies attacks are gonna go or where the enemy will move, (would be very helpful for the magician boss.)
There are actually scopes in the game, but they don't drop. In some of the screenshots, like the actual game thumbnail, the gun has a scope on it. They don't have any stats, so if you were to hack them in, they wouldn't do much but sit atop the gun. Maybe I'll add them fully in the future. <3
very fun but I wish there was save states. I after playing the game for half an hour I kept dying and having to redo the entire thing, and is the guardian lady at level 5 even able to be killed?
How it works: Get more money for killing enemies, have max coin count increased (from 100 to 200 or 150), and use money as bullets. They do slightly more damage and the gun doesn't need to reload.
Really good game. Only thing I would have liked was a little variety in areas after bosses, for example, green dungeon tiles then red dungeon tiles. Other than that, the game was very fun and I played for about an hour. Bosses are also challenging and very rewarding to beat.
i just wanna know if this build is good i dont remember the names but if anybody can identify the components of this gun and figure out if its good i would like to acquire that info thx :)
But really, Gun Knight is such a good concept for a game, the only thing is you can't buy anything from the store on lvl 5 and the silver set doesn't seem to do much.
Yeah. It was more-so to teach the player that the shop exists and to look forward to it. But unfortunately, due to how much you REPEAT those 5 stages, it feels a bit condescending to constantly get taught the 'lesson' over and over, knowing it's pointless to go in the first time.
The silver set extends the time between the bosses attacks. You might not notice much, but it does make the boss EASIER, in a sense.
played the game till level 100+ then I was too bored. good game but gets quite repetetive after a while. Sadly I couldnt kill my arch enemy the angel either :-(

WoW that is my new favourite Rogue-Like. If you gave me license i can make a hungarian (magyar) translate, because im hungarian lol :)

and then you can change the difficulty. Hopefully this helped you out :D
Tip: if for some reason you don't wanna press 'R' to reload you can just right-click and it'll reload :D
Noice, this will help a lot. Thanks!

Building them META strats!
Not quite a full set but enough for a 100% slow chance
So much fun.
Stepford hey i love your game so much i featured it as the game of the week on my website!!! look here https://26searscj.wixsite.com/teamapocalypse/post/featured-game-of-the-week-gun-knight
Thanks a lot, man!
no prob :D
5x Trigger & 4 Bullet Barrel & Regen Mag = OP
It is OP AS HECK!
I made it to Stage 138. Died to a slime baby
mini gantlet & auto trigger & rengen mag & follow bullets = OP
better use wall penetration bullet
i got so high
pog
what does bullet time barrel do, i literally sacrificed my quad barrel for it, so it better be useful because it does NOTHING
the bullet time barrel gives you slow mo for 1 second after you get a kill bro, that's it's only use,for coolness.
hi,I am facing a issue when ever I'am plaing the game.when ever I die I get this message=

do you know what I should do?
The game needs an internet connection to submit a highscore, I think!
but I am having the error even with a good internet connection.
why NO FULLSCREEN ;-;
this is just too addictive. but the full screen doesn't work on chrome.
Idea for new weapon type: Scope
Purpose: Some could have accuracy increases, or some could allow bullets to move towards enemies, (or my personal favorite,) there could be a kind where the scope would allow you to see where an enemies attacks are gonna go or where the enemy will move, (would be very helpful for the magician boss.)

very fun but I wish there was save states. I after playing the game for half an hour I kept dying and having to redo the entire thing, and is the guardian lady at level 5 even able to be killed?
look at this :) i actually made it to level 310. then i died.
(takes a lot of patience)
There aren't that many levels AFAIK.
i had to repeat a lot of levels
WTF.
erqWWWWWyhdft
im on chrome so i have to use the browser version.
Could you do like a debug menu? Like you can give yourself any item you want?
New weapon idea:
Weapon Type: Bullet
Name: Loose Change
How it works: Get more money for killing enemies, have max coin count increased (from 100 to 200 or 150), and use money as bullets. They do slightly more damage and the gun doesn't need to reload.
(Just an idea)
SMArT
I LOVE this game. Even playing on browser is super fun. I love all the different combinations. Currently trying to have every of one kind of item.
I also play on browser
Although I suck at games like this I had a lot of fun! Just wish I could see what gun parts I had equipped.
me too.
Really good game. Only thing I would have liked was a little variety in areas after bosses, for example, green dungeon tiles then red dungeon tiles. Other than that, the game was very fun and I played for about an hour. Bosses are also challenging and very rewarding to beat.
ya know what,someone needs to make a list on all the gun parts and the effects.
Oh, so you like Gun Knight?
Name every gun part.
bet you cant
no u
shut up
the gun i used (always has ammo and rapid fire{auto})
i took a screen shot right before i died. got pretty far... ...also this took a lot of skill.
neat i died on 73 or 76 because I wasn't paying attention
i just wanna know if this build is good i dont remember the names but if anybody can identify the components of this gun and figure out if its good i would like to acquire that info thx :)
A shotgun barrel will always do you well!
Yes
You too polished Nobleman/Noblewoman
Thank you Kind sir for that inquiring info
great game mate bit unoriginal as it is but i have complete faith youll make it your own with tim
Nice Game I Got To Level 53
...good game...
One Word: addictive
Thanks! <3
Have you tried zooming in and out on your browser?
5 burst trigger + bullet canister + quad barrel = multi shot annihilator (best with exlposive ammo)
also 5 burst trig + mini cat + bullet canister = single shot killer
no but seriously it doesnt even need to regen bullets and it already fires 5 ammo, its also great to use it with quad barrel V:
LOL I MADE THIS COMMENT WHILE PLAYING IN GAME AND A MOB DROPPED ME THE QUAD BARREL WHILE I HAD THE 5 BURST AND BULLET CANISTER LETS GOOO
Hey Stepford, did you take some enemies' sounds from Minecraft?
I didn't take them specifically from Minecraft. I took them from royalty free sound packs and stuff. I think Notch also did the same initially.
Ok cool, didn't know that.
Gun Knight (Level 1 - 50)
yes good game
Thanks!
ok, I didn't expect a reply from you, hehe.
But really, Gun Knight is such a good concept for a game, the only thing is you can't buy anything from the store on lvl 5 and the silver set doesn't seem to do much.
Good game, man!

The silver set extends the time between the bosses attacks. You might not notice much, but it does make the boss EASIER, in a sense.
I appreciate the criticism! <3
Thanks!
played the game till level 100+ then I was too bored.
good game but gets quite repetetive after a while.
Sadly I couldnt kill my arch enemy the angel either :-(
