GunHowl - Prealpha
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
GunHowl is a super fast action platformer with permadeath and procedural levels.
Guide adventure-wolf 'Howl' and his new frienemy, the demonic Gun through winding corridors.
The game is in a very early alpha stage so expect lack of content, general jank, unbalanced gameplay and plenty of bugs. Oh, and there is absolutely no sound yet.
