Overview

  • Shotgun Cop Man is a 2D platformer developed by DeadToast Entertainment, creators of My Friend Pedro, and published by Devolver Digital.
  • Players control a bald, stick-figure cop who uses firearms not only to fight enemies but also to propel himself through levels in place of traditional jumping or dashing.
  • The demo, available as part of Steam Next Fest, features 17 levels, a boss fight, five weapons, and daily bonus campaigns, offering a taste of the game's challenging and chaotic mechanics.
  • Levels combine precision platforming with fast-paced combat, requiring players to master creative movement strategies to navigate traps and defeat enemies.
  • The full game is set for release later in 2025 on Nintendo Switch and Windows PC, priced at $10, with the demo already receiving praise for its innovative gameplay and physics-driven fun.
