About
Son of a Gun is an intense action packed top down shooter full of bullets, blood and explosions. Collect and manage your guns and grenades to fight swarming bugs, gigantic robots, slimy monsters and even space ghosts. Select one of 6 characters and upgrade them while progressing through the single player campaign. Overwhelming enemies can be sometimes dealt with by the prototype time-bending device.
You are Son of a Gun - an interplanetary mercenary working for the Sons of a Gun organization. You’re called always when firepower matters and something needs to be solved by force. While being on a vacation on a tropical planet you’re just received a phone call from the SOAG Command Center…

Don't forget about grenades - gear up with your favorite grenade type - cluster, force, explosive, implosive…
You'll fight in the heart of the distant planets with versatile biomes. Each with their own unique environment and challenges - reach a target area, unlock base gates, download data from data-pylons or survive the horde's attack.

Reviews
Don't know if I've ever described a game as "inoffensive" before, Son of a Gun is a perfectly fine 5/10. It isn't good but it also isn't bad, It's basically one of those flash games you'd play once for 2-3 hours then never think about again. I'm not recommending it cause of that price, in no world is this worth $10, is 100% a game you'd play for free on Newgrounds.
