Description
Tower of Guns is a fast-paced randomized FPS for the twitch gamer, a short burst "Lunch Break FPS" not unlike FTL or Binding of Isaac mixed with Doom 2. If you're gonna win, you're gonna do it within an hour. That's a big if though... it won't be easy.

With random enemies, random power ups, random bosses, tons of unlockable items and weapons...and even random-level composition - you never know what to expect! So grab a rocket-launcher, slap a shotgun-modifier on it, pick up a hundred stackable 'double jumps' (or centuple jumps at that point, I suppose) and get to conquering the Tower of Guns!

Tower of Guns was made by a guy named Joe (with his brother Mike composing the music).
  • A gratuitous amount of bullets and projectiles!
  • Randomized levels, enemies, loot, and mobs makes for a highly replayable experience.
  • ”Lunch-Break” style play sessions: the perfect game for the gamer with not a lot of time.

Get To Tha Towah!!

An excellent FPS rogue-like. It lives up to its name, its literally a tower full of guns. If you played DOOM in years past, you'll understand the mechanics. Each room you enter has randomized enemies and randomized architecture. You never know whats behind that door. After a few rooms you'll meet a boss, and those bosses can be hard sometimes, or just a bit hard. Its the luck of the draw. Lots of perks to unlock as you make your way through the tower. I suggest starting with the Bluegrass perk so you have doublejump from the start.

If borderlands was an arcade

For people who love Borderlands don't take what I say as a bad thing, it's just I think this game dose it better with more movement and less comparing guns and more using guns to fire with running and jumping like a ball with blades tape to it. If anything I like it a lot because it feels like borderlands turning into a arcade shooter simple fun and crazy flying guns, saw blades looking at you and want you died. Dumb and fun easy to understand on what to do with a lot to shoot for.

Great shooter with a sense of humor

I keep coming back to Tower of Guns. Endlessly fun, and the developer's sense of humor adds an enjoyable touch. This is one of those games that, when you play a round, makes you think "okay, just one more time," and then it's two hours later. Great game!

Such a great game

I really enjoyed playing this game. It's just so fast paced and smooth, everything feels right. Just very satisfying. My only complaint is it's slightly too short.
