Mighty Goose

Mighty Goose is a side-scrolling shooter starring a galaxy-traveling bounty hunter on a mission to take on the Void King and his forces.

Run, jump, shoot, and dodge through enemy-filled stages, using standard fire and limited-ammo weapons against waves of foes and large bosses. You can also take control of armed vehicles to attack enemies.

Build a loadout with upgrade chips, secondary weapons, and assist partners, which unlock as you progress. Coins collected in combat can be spent in a shop during missions; a second player can control your selected partner in local co-op.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its fast, satisfying run-and-gun action and its familiar arcade-shooter feel. Reviews also highlight the boss fights, colorful pixel art, energetic music, and the humor of playing as an armed goose. Some players find the experience too short or visually chaotic, and opinions differ on its difficulty.
