Gun Monkeys is a side-scrolling multiplayer shooter video game developed and published by Size Five Games. It was released on June 28, 2013 for Windows and OS X on the Steam platform. It was later removed for sale from Steam.
The game received mixed reception from critics, who praised the gameplay but criticized the difficulty of finding anyone to play against in the online multiplayer mode.
The game takes place in an arena where monkeys with guns are pitted against each other.[1] Players must grab "energy cubes" and return them to their base, with each player death reducing that player's energy by 1.[1] If the energy of one of the players reaches zero, they lose.[1]
The game's arenas are procedurally generated and contain environmental hazards.[1] The game supports both local and online play.[1] In-game cash gained in the online mode can be used to unlock various perks.[1]
