About the Game

Meet Shotgun Joe, a small-town guy who loves two things more than anything in the world: his fiancée Annabel… and his trusty shotgun.

When a sudden alien invasion hits, Annabel is abducted by a flying saucer.

To save her, Joe must use a strange teleportation device the aliens left behind.

There’s just one problem… it’s broken.

To fix it, Joe must travel across the globe, searching for missing parts and fighting his way through dangerous worlds.

Every location brings new enemies, fast-paced action and classic arcade challenges.

Will you help Joe save Annabel?
