Gunlocked

Gunlocked is a sci-fi shooter in which you pilot a ship against waves of alien enemies. You control movement rather than aiming and firing directly, so positioning and dodging are central to combat.

Weapons fire automatically, each with its own targeting behavior that you can influence through movement and upgrades. During a run, collect gems to level up and choose from weapons, powerups, and other upgrades that can combine into different builds.

Choose from seven pilots with distinct starting equipment, then take on varied enemies and three evolving bosses. Runs can be replayed with different strategies, or continued in Endless Mode; difficulty modifiers offer additional challenges.

Players who enjoy Gunlocked often praise its unusual mix of shoot-'em-up combat and survivor-style progression. Automatic weapons make movement and positioning the focus, while trying different pilots, weapons, and upgrade combinations gives runs variety. Reviewers also appreciate the short-session format and pixel-art presentation, though some find the weapon targeting or early-run balance frustrating.
