About the Game

One bad hunting season. One stolen shotgun. One very angry rabbit.

They hunted your friends. They hunted your family. Now it's your turn, and you've got their gun.

RECOIL RABBIT is a momentum based 2D pixel art platformer where every shotgun blast is both a weapon and a movement tool. Blast yourself through walls, launch off ceilings, and chain recoil jumps to tear through levels at breakneck speed. The gun isn't just how you fight, it's how you fly.

Master the Recoil

Movement in RECOIL RABBIT is physics driven and deeply satisfying. Build momentum, conserve it, weaponise it. Every shot you fire sends you hurtling in the opposite direction, learn to use that force and you'll feel unstoppable. Lose control of it and you'll find out exactly how many ways there are to die.

World by World. Harder Every Time.

Progress through a series of distinct worlds, each with its own visual identity, colour palette, enemies, and obstacles. What starts as a revenge trip through a sunny countryside farm escalates into something far more punishing. New worlds bring new rules. Master one world and the next will humble you.
