Today, I want to take a moment to showcase the weapons currently available in the game. Each weapon has been designed with a unique playstyle in mind—whether you're into precision, raw power, CQC, sniping, or, like my friend Sied Muhamed, PURE UNFILTERED CHAOS.
More weapons are on the way in future updates, and I’d love to hear your ideas. Got a weapon in mind? I might just add it (especially if it’s cursed).
Intermission
This curated review is proudly sponsored by the Fire Mage (please keep him happy by pretending his molotov is a real fire spell).
The Fire Mage also insists I tell you that each weapon has some distinctive features, including: - Bullet size - Damage - Spread - Slow applied - Speed while holding
These variations enable a lot of dynamic play. For example, you can hold a knife to run faster to a point of interest and then switch to your real weapon—or fire a slowing weapon first, before delivering the actual damage.
Rifles
Rifles offer some of the longest ranges and highest damage output, making them ideal for mid-to-long range combat. These weapons are designed for precision and power, rewarding players who can better control recoil instead of just spraying and praying.
The current lineup includes: - AK-47, the old reliable. Loud, proud, and deadly. - M4A1, the good guy AK-47 - AUG, best weapon. Will need a nerf at some point... eventually… maybe.
Each weapon brings its own strengths and weaknesses. However, if you’re not a rifle guy but still like full-auto, prefer a more aggressive approach, and don’t want to think too hard—we have SMGs!
SMGs
For players who hear an echo when they think. Most bullets. Most fun. Just hold W and click.
The current lineup includes: - P90, RUSH B CYKA. - NEGEV, initially a dev weapon used to test network syncing and performance by pushing the game to its limits. Now included for 64 players to pick up and see who has the better PC.
Shotguns
Shotguns are built for close-quarters combat. Massive damage. Massive vibes. Just run into a room and delete people.
The current lineup includes: - NOVA, also known as “Why aren’t you dead?! I hit you twice!” - SPAS12, If you hear it cock and you're not already shooting… it’s over.
I usually prefer to stalk players around corner turns with these bad boys. However, you’ll need to find your own playstyle with them.
Pistols
Pistols are versatile, precise, and great at mid-to-close range combat. They offer more range than shotguns while remaining lightweight and accurate. This means you can walk and shoot without worrying too much about recoil or spread. Depending on the pistol type, they can function as a backup weapon or a precise tool for skilled players.
Pistols in the game come in two categories: - Trace-based, hits instantly. Low damage. Great for sniping some chip damage. - Projectile-based, slower shots, but way more Oof.
The current lineup includes: - GLONK, GLONK - KRUGER, balanced. Like all things should be. - REVOLVER, high damage, big drama. - USP, silenced and tactical. Smells like a covert op. - HAND CANNON, … why did we implement this MONSTER?? Seriously.
Each pistol has its strengths, offering different playstyles and strategies. Let me know if you have any suggestions for the current setup or want to see other pistols included.
Snipers
Sniper rifles are designed for long-range precision, rewarding patience and accuracy.
Currently, the only sniper rifle available is: - AWP, if you’ve played Counter-Strike, you already know. If you haven’t… you will.
I’m working on adding a second sniper—maybe a semi-auto or something fast like the DRAGON-9. Stay tuned, and please do suggest more.
Melee
Melee is not just about stabbing—it’s about sending a message. Nothing makes an enemy panic more than seeing someone sprinting at them with a katana in hand. The fear causes them to run, and by running, they miss their shots—giving you the upper hand in close quarters… unless, of course, they’re holding a BAZOOKA or SPAS12.
Right now, the only melee weapon available is the MACHETE, but we’re planning to add a SWORD, KNIFE, STONE, HANDS, and THROWING AXE in a future update. Each will bring its own playstyle, whether it’s speed, reach, or raw power. Got an idea? Pitch it. The weirder, the better.
Special Weapons
Special weapons add a level of chaos that changes the pace of a fight. Usually, they were designed just to test the game, but since they’re super fun, we decided to keep them.
We’ve got the RPG-7, the ELEPHANT GUN, GRENADE LAUNCHERS, and a few others. These weapons are as fun as they are destructive, leading to some ridiculous moments in combat.
There’s more to discover—but you’ll have to play to find out.

Over the last few days, I had a revelation: windows dominates the market because developers don't care for Linux users, although they pose a real market and a real opportunity
