Squirrel with a Gun is a unique third-person action-adventure sandbox game developed by Deedelice. Players take on the role of a squirrel, but not just any squirrel—one armed with a variety of firearms. The game’s core hook revolves around using the intense recoil of these weapons not just for combat, but primarily for movement, allowing the squirrel to perform physics-defying jumps and gliding maneuvers across a suburban open world.
Embark on a mission to survive against mysterious, suit-wearing agents who are attempting to capture you and reclaim the weaponry. Navigate complex environments using clever weapon manipulation: blast yourself upwards with a shotgun for verticality, or use an SMG's rapid fire to glide over obstacles. Interact with various non-player characters (NPCs), solving puzzles, demanding snacks (nuts, naturally), and completing side quests within a highly interactive, physics-driven world. Customize your squirrel's appearance with unique hats and gear, and unlock an arsenal that includes pistols, shotguns, and rocket launchers, each offering new ways to traverse the environment and cause delightful chaos.

- Absolutely hilarious premise executed perfectly. The recoil mechanics are a blast and redefine platforming. Pure sandbox fun.
- This is the chaos simulator I didn't know I needed. Fighting agents with a rocket launcher as a squirrel never gets old!
- The game nails the physics and the open world feels surprisingly large. Great indie action title.
- A true hidden gem. It's ridiculous, charming, and genuinely challenging in places. Highly recommended for fans of physics puzzles and mayhem.
