    ABOUT THIS GAME

    GyroGunner is Omni-directional scrolling twin-stick shooter.

    The purpose is to control the enemy base by operating a combat helicopter equipped with a Vulcan cannon and lock-on missiles.

    There is an arcade mode where you clear areas in order from area 1, and a free mode where you can play the cleared areas.
    There are 7 areas in total.

    The Nintendo Switch™ version adds a "casual" difficulty level, making it even easier to play.

    CONTROLLS

    Left stick : Move
    Right stick : rotate
    ZR button : Vulcan cannons
    R button : Lock-on missiles
    L button : Flares
    ZL button : Boosters

    Vulcan cannons, lock-on missiles, and flares have ammo limits.
    Use flares to avoid enemy homing missiles.
    Boosters can be used at any time and will increase your movement speed at the cost of fuel consumption.

    If you get hit, you will take damage, and if the damage reaches 100% or more, you will crash.
    If it runs out of fuel, it will crash.

    There are no power-up items or repair items.    … Expand

    GyroGunner is a bit rough around the edges, though. The presentation is quite bland, the hit boxes aren’t as kind as you might like, and there just isn’t a whole lot of depth to the game. I think there’s still some fun to be had here, particularly if you’re a fan of this type of shooter. That said, I wouldn’t be rushing out to pick this up given how many other ways you can get your shooting kicks on Switch.
