A platformer where the gun is the movement. Firing downwards pushes you up, firing sideways pushes you the other way, and there is no jump button — so getting anywhere is a matter of spending shots in the right direction, and the levels are built as physics puzzles that happen to contain enemies. That coupling makes every encounter a double decision: the shot that kills the thing in front of you also moves you, possibly into the trap behind it. Ammunition is finite within a level, so the elegant solution is usually the one that uses recoil and damage in the same shot. Co-op adds a second player with the same constraint, which is either a help or a catastrophe depending on whether you agree about where you are both going. It is a genuinely clever idea, executed cleanly.

How to play Bullet Bros
- Aim down to go up. Recoil is the only lift you have.
- Plan where a shot sends you before firing it, especially near hazards.
- Combine movement and damage in the same shot where you can; ammunition is limited.
- Use walls to stop yourself rather than firing again to cancel momentum.
- Restart early when a level has been entered with too little ammunition to finish.
Tips
- Small taps give controllable lift; a burst sends you further than any level wants.
- In co-op, agree on a direction before either of you fires — recoil affects both of you if you collide.
- The hardest levels usually have a single intended shot order rather than a difficult sequence.
Questions about Bullet Bros
Is there a jump button?
No. Recoil from firing is the only way to move vertically.
Is ammunition limited?
Within a level, yes, which is what makes it a puzzle.
Is there co-op?
Yes, local two-player.
Is it a shooter or a platformer?
Both, and the two are the same mechanic.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes, with on-screen controls.
Does it need installing?
No, it runs in the browser.
