How to play GunnerCraft

- Follow the on-screen prompts. The developer describes the controls like this: Click to shoot or tap with your finger Wherever you shoot you move in the opposite direction move according to the tab of the gun
- Play the first run purely to learn. Notice the rhythm of the obstacles, then start a fresh run and aim for a clean start.
- When you are comfortable, set a target: a score to beat, a level to clear or a time to shave. Small goals are what make GunnerCraft stick.

Tips and tricks
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Find the rhythm. Most arcade games have an underlying beat — taps, jumps or moves that fall on a regular interval — and once you feel it, your accuracy jumps.
- Learn the first thirty seconds perfectly. The opening is the same every time, so it should never be where you lose.
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
- Because this is a Action game, keep moving.
