Squirrel With A Gun is a goofy indie action platformer that leans on absurd premise and cheap, short-burst entertainment. The core appeal is the silly concept, with the game described as stupid fun, visually solid on PS5, and entertaining enough that the low price feels easy to justify. It also has more content than at launch. The main drawbacks are floaty platforming, controls that take getting used to, limited combat variety, and some jank or bugs. A quirky pick if the premise alone is enough.
Common Questions (4)
At this price, it is commonly treated as a low-risk novelty buy: it is described as stupid fun, a blast, and worth the experience even if you do not love it. The main caveat is indie jank, floaty platforming, and limited mechanical depth, so it is best if you want a goofy short-form game rather than a polished one.
Yes. The platforming is described as floaty and the controls take some getting used to, with one report that the first jump-and-shoot boost section requires very precise aiming or you can fall into a pit.
It has added content since launch, but the core mechanics are still described as fairly limited, with little variation in takedowns or reasons to switch guns. That makes it feel more like a short, goofy experience than a deep action game.
Yes. It is described as having occasional game-breaking bugs, though workarounds were found to get past them. The game is also called very indie, so some rough edges are expected.

Squirrel, meet gun. As the neighborhood's most obnoxious rodent, develop a knack (and a love?) for crime and mayhem in pursuit of golden acorns in this nutty sandbox shooter and puzzle platformer. Fight tooth, claw, and gun to escape a secret underground facility and defeat the Agents.

I know they added more content since I played it so there's even more value. For $2 even if you hate it it's still worth the experience.
