GUNS UP! for Windows

Military-themed side-scrolling action game

GUNS UP can essentially be thought of as a combination between a traditional tower defence platform and an RTS game. Players will need to employ a good deal of strategy and foresight if they hope to emerge victorious. Much like other platforms within this genre, more powerful weapons are made available as one progresses to further levels.

Gameplay Principles and Key Features

GUNS UP presents the player with very smooth graphics that are highly detailed. Still, the most striking feature associated with this game is a rotating three-dimensional view of one's base. This enables the user to feel truly immersed within his or her own strategic tower defence. All options are located on the left-hand side of the main screen and the addition of an advanced heads-up display provides players with detailed information at all times. Like similar platforms, upgrades and more powerful weapons can be purchased.

Additional Information

There are several different playing methods associated with GUNS UP. Players can first perfect their skills through the help of a practice mode before engaging in one-on-one competitions. As an equal amount of defence and offence are required to succeed, this game is associated with a constant learning curve. The addition of real-time competitors also signifies that no two matches will ever be alike.
