It's a pretty simple plot: Gooter, alongside a spirit named Spirilucii, go on a journey to stop an invasion of the floating islands (where all monsters live nowadays) by creatures known as Roguts. To do this, they must travel a great distance to find the source of it all, encountering all kinds of unique monsters (and maybe even humans) along the way.

The objective of almost every level is to get Gooter to the teleporter by shooting everything that's in his way. This "everything" includes multiple types of crates, enemies, and more! For boss battles, all you have to do is kill them to move on to the next world! (you dummy)

Gooter

He's the funny-looking main character with a red nose. He has the ability to shoot bullets (yes, BULLETS) out of his mouth. Spirilucii guides him to where he needs to shoot, including enemies and objects.

Rogut

They are red fleshy creatures who have the ability to fly. They spawn at random locations and kill Gooter with just one touch, so be careful! Roguts are the primary enemy of the game.

Soober

By default, these green creatures stand in one place and are very much harmless. However, if you shoot one, they become hostile and run at Gooter with an intent to kill via sharp bites.

Now, why do all of these characters have such strange and gibberish names? Because for far too long we as a society gave characters names that make sense and mean things, and I (Anthono220) want to be the person of change!

There is currently no way to financially support this project, however you CAN help the development of Gooter by doing these things:

• Give feedback on what you liked and what should be changed. I wanna make a good game, after all!
• Spread the word! If enough word is spread, Gooter will become real and take over the world!!!! :D
• Stay tuned for future updates which add really cool things like new levels and features! Again, this is an indev demo. Stuff is gonna go wrong and feel incomplete obviously.

SPECIAL THANKS:

• WitchDagger for being a cool dude (he’s gonna show up in the game as a boss at some point because he is just that cool)
• Bden Mo and Moxie for also being cool dudes (they are gonna show up as cameos because of their swaginess)
• Froggernade for being a frog lmao

-- Known Issues --

• Can't click to focus window during cutscenes (Web version (fixed???))

• Drops frames at times (Web version)
• Difficulty option is kinda lame to be honest (All versions)
• Controller mode might be wack (All versions)

• Gooter doesn't play an animation why shooting if you time your shot while he's blinking (All Versions)

There's not much else that needs to be said here. What are you waiting for? Scroll up and play NOW!

(Sorry if this description is a little wack. I will update it eventually)
