Synopsis

Galactic Gunners is a 3D first person shooter in which the player uses attachments on a physical controller in order to change guns in the game. The attachments will turn the controller from a blaster, to a zinger, disruptor or to a vaporizer. To complete the game the player will have to fight hordes of aliens, and complete the objectives. Objectives include delivering an item and destroying an object within a time limit. Every few objectives completed the aliens will get stronger and harder to defeat. Some aliens will be resistant to gun types and will take less damage.
