Recoil is a free arcade browser game by Nucleargoomba. Play it on desktop, with no download.
One button. Endless chaos. You're a gun hanging from a parachute, and the only way to move is to shoot. Every shot kicks you back, so you blast robots and steer at the same time. Easy to learn, hard to put down.
- Simple to play: tap or click to shoot. Time your shots and chain kills into huge combos.
- Ride the kick: aim down to fly up, bounce bullets off the edge and dodge incoming fire.
- Giant bosses: every 300 m a boss stomps in. Shoot off its armor and hit the core.
- Collect 44 skins: open Skin Crates and find rare, epic, legendary and MYTHIC skins that light up your bullets and explosions.
- Something new every day: daily rewards, free crates, a Daily Challenge with its own leaderboard and a Skin of the Day.
- Get stronger: level up, unlock the Shotgun, Burst Rifle and Sniper, pick perks every run and upgrade your gear.
