Step into the world of a monkey with a gun

About Guns and Keys (and Monkeys)


What is Gunkey?

In Gunkey you play as a monkey with a gun who has to use said weapon for both fight and flight.
This physics-based 2D platformer has a focus on its weapon system and the high mobility provided by it. You are equipped with guns that can not only be used to blast the various mechanical baddies that stand in your way to freedom, their crazy knockback will also allow you to launch yourself up high into the air and to zoom past the many tricky platforming challenges that you will have to face.

Who made Gunkey?

We created our very own game that not only brings a fun perspective on shooters but also combines the fun aspects of platformers and 2D shooters in one.
We are the creators of Gunkey. A passionate team of artists, game-designers and a game engineer who all developed this game in 10 weeks as a part of our studies at School for Games (S4G) Berlin. Gunkey served as a final paper for our first semester and we're truly proud of the result.
