RuinShot io is a browser multiplayer shooter set on city rooftops at sunset. You can fight other players online or practice alone against bots.

How to play

Movement matters almost as much as aim here. Rooftops sit at different heights, and the double jump lets you change levels quickly or get out of a bad spot. RuinShot io also gives you several weapons, aiming, crouching and a hook, so standing still and trading damage is usually the lazy option. Solo mode is useful for learning all this: choose the number of bots and their difficulty before starting.

Once the controls stop feeling strange, multiplayer makes more sense. Watch the edges of platforms, reload before pushing somebody and use height instead of running straight at every opponent. Lowkey, getting caught below another player is much worse than missing one shot.
