positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is not a run and gun. In fact it's like Battletoads. You have to remember all the points where the enemy appears. Every now and then the game makes it impossible by changing the algo. If you want a fast paced game, stay away. If you want an ULTRA slow paced shooter, get it. Personally the game sucked. I can't see why people give it such high ratings due to the game just popping enemies from behind and from the blind. It interrupts the game flow too much. Also having to…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →for now, it works great on steam os, steam deck with proton, great game, I hope it will be steam deck verified soon (:
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Let's go back to the era of notorious mafias, shady gangsters, well-organized crimes. Sets during the prohibition times and corruptions are more like a daily habit or part of the culture. ...hmm, wait. Seems not that different with modern eras, just more subtle than before. Ah, well. Better move on straight discussing the game, or else I'll be sleeping with the fishes anytime soon. X3 It's simple and quite hilariously funny, but still can be challenging and will make your time worthy. A…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →what a great game, humorous and fun and can be challenging. solid voice acting and controls. worth the money spent.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sharing my full walkthrough: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL957yPFpIoy9EUGXzo2Tg6hkW-QKMYASI&si=9m_e7jhg3SuSqM8h Summary: Guns, Gore and Cannoli is a side-scrolling action shooter set during the 1920s Prohibition era, where players take on the role of Vinnie Cannoli, a mob enforcer sent to the crime-ridden town of Thugtown to investigate the disappearance of a fellow gangster. Upon arriving, Vinnie discovers that the city has been overrun by zombies, while rival gangs and corrupt…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very old school, no depth at all. But it's doing a solid job, with a still appealing presentation. Only recommended if, for some reason, you suddenly feel a nostalgic desire. 68/100
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is fun at its core and the animation and art style is very nice. but oh boi the controls and aim is just annoying in this game. literally game is "hard" because of movement and aim limitations forced into the mechanic to a point that i literally didnt enjoy a single boss fight in this game. boss fights were just annoying die and repeat till you learn the looping attacks and safe positions then its a quick wipe. none of it was enjoyable imo i like the game because of the theme, art,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You play the role of Vinnie Cannoli looking for a lost pal and trying to find answers about the zombie outbreak. Take on varied zombies, other gangsters, mob bosses and the army trying to cover things up. The game has hand-drawn 2d graphics and animations, various weapons to choose from, a flamethrower, grenades, pistols, machine guns, etc. It also has local co-op, up to 4 players. It's a fun game to play, wise guy comments, nicely designed levels, great animations and some beefy…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This was very fun to play in co-op and solo. The feel of using different weapons is great in terms of animation, sound and impact. I’m surprised how many different weapons you can use. The levels are detailed and varied, the voice acting is on point and there are even some decent cutscenes. There were 12-13 levels that were fairly short. There are 4 difficulty modes, different characters to pick and chapter select. Chapter select is ideal for getting the achievements, most were fun to get. A…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good art, alright weapons - appropriate for the era, old school stuff. You need quick reflexes, patience, easy is not easy, enemies spawn behind and in front at the same time, can't really dodge so it's kick, shoot, and die a lot, blah blah. luckily it has infinite lives Couldn't test multiplayer but i'd assume that'd be a blast If you struggle with precise, quick controls this game will be a struggle. No accessibility and easy isn't easy. Whereas i'm assuming multi-player is good fun, and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Guns, Gore and Cannoli - Ever wanted to be a part of the mob family and just go to townn to kill a bunch of guys with guns, nade zombies and chow down on the greatest tasting cannolies around? Yeah, this game has got you covered with a great story, interesting levels and really fun side-scrolling action. 4 player coop makes this game so much fun and I would highly recommend trying that out!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great addition to the genre. Funny jokes, great gameplay and kind of addictive. If you like run & gun games this one Will not disappoint :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →second games just better
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →going to finish this game anyway, but i really don't think this game is worth your time - tank controls - auto locking enemies - enemies that hit you affect your jump height to stop progression - rat enemies - weird stuttering unless you play in windowed mode the devs did a great job with animation but the mechanics really needed a lot of time in the oven to cook
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good and fun games to play with your friends and family
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice shooter, very fun co-op, a nice challenge on impossible mode.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tomorrow I shall force myself to finish Guns, Gore, & Cannoli and if i get mad to bad D:< I wanna play the second game already!!
unlabelledView post →Overall, the first game is just as good as the second, with a good story and a variety of weapons. I'd like to point out that the bosses in the second game are more interesting and less overwhelming than here. Unfortunately, the game is still as short as the 2nd part. There are some bugs in the game where the game stops detecting the gamepad for some reason, which unfortunately requires restarting the game. My rating: ✭✭✭✭✰
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the BEST platformer shooters ever made! Hey, you. Yeah, YOU. Do you like shooting zombies? Do you like platformers with beautifully hand drawn graphics? Do you like being a badass mafioso gunning down bad guys? Then Guns, Gore and Cannoli is for you. Packed with timeless 1920s soundtracks, crisp sound effects, varied enemies, solid gameplay and tons of hilarious dialogue... I mean, what more could you ask for? My only complaints are the slightly clunky movement and the lack of online…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Story rich and fun. A classic candidate or already part of the hall of fame.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unbalanced trash ,the game requires you to know where the enemies are to beable to plan how you going to get through but the problem is the game keeps changing how enemies spawn if you wonder I was playin on hardest difficulty but when a game doesnt do diffiuclties right (like this game messed it up) it becomes more frustrating than challenging
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought just to play on a single keyboard, but game is bugged, second player controls first one. You can not play this game together locally using single keyboard.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Love this game. It works great on my Steam Deck, no tinkering needed.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Mafia and Zombie? it's brilliant..!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →like other review, game is hard even on easy. Enemies are coming front and behind at the same time. Don't under estimate the power of the kick. Good amount of weapons Enemies are well varied. I had a good time but towards the end I got frustrated.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Imagine a Family Guy cutaway gag about Italians mobsters & zombies. Now imagine if that cutaway gag became a whole game. That is this game. I don't know whether that is more of a good or bad thing, but that is what the writing, voice acting, & animation of this game feels like. Gameplay was okay. Ran somewhat clunky. It can do coop apparently.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you ever wondered what the absolutely bonkers 2000s flash game scene would look like with an actual budget, studio, and voice cast... wonder no longer. This game isn't deep. What you see if what you get. BUT, it's super well done, Hits that sweet spot of being ludicrous, funny, and mechanically sound. Take gun AND the cannoli, because you're gonna need them both.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is simply a masterpiece! I've tried it several times.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →played on steam deck rog ally legion go pc great game simple and fun
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nothing to see here, move on | KAMGUSTA's MINI REVIEW It's an action platform that resembles a "browser game", with a "floating" feeling of the characters and enemies, which also causes them to feel detached from the background. You can only shoot in the forward direction. The "kick" action is fundamental to the game, as often large crowds of enemies are thrown at you. Everything feels clunky at times and reloading guns takes ages. Only 2-3 hours of gameplay. Also, overpriced. At least it has…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Treat yourself to this game! Short but super fun, with great music, art and a genuinely lovely plot. 12/10 would fight zombies and eat cannoli again,
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game. Well made, good controls.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It provides everything you'd expect. I love it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →best gameeeeeeeeee.........
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its just fun :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ok so this one is good but if your looking into playing be warned no camera aiming you shoot forward thats it still good but i think we need a 3rd one
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good cannoli, too many dam zombies tho...
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Guns Zombies cartoon graphics. A scrolling shoot um up, great fun 10/10. A must buy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game if you got the patience
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great platformer shooter! Gory, funny, great graphics, and.....zombies. Can't go wrong. The controls are not super fluid, but they work for what it is. The enemies are varied and tough, the guns are varied and worth changing depending on the type of enemy you face. The levels are about 10-15 minutes each if you are able to run through them, but the Impossible difficulty is almost just that.....impossible. It will take great patience. I love the mob story backdrop, but overall play this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Guns Gore & Cannoli is a game that's over the top in every way. Starting with the character and his voice lines, everything only gets more outrageous. The enemies are diverse and ridiculous while also having unique gimmicks. The story is nonsensical and parodies the hard boiled genre well. Overall this game is an explosive, linear, and sometimes challenging shoot-em-up that takes absolutely nothing seriously. The campaign is quick and constantly introducing new enemies so it never gets stale.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. The humor may be dated. But then again so is the game. For a fun romp through zombie laden early 1900's how can you go wrong? Make sure to eat your cannoli.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →How can you NOT include mouse in controls? What is it, 1995?
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game shoot every thing
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Did this game on easy mode for only 3+ hours. The games's quite fun and enjoyable, not hard at all but still somewhat challenging. 🤌🤌🤌
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →100% achievements in 10.5 hours.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is relatively short even though some sections seem to repeat previous sections or drag on for a tad too long. My biggest grievances with the game come from some awkward platforming sections and frequent enemy waves that can quickly overwhelm the player if they don't have a fully loaded weapon, but other than that, the game can be enjoyable to those who are fond of side-scrolling shoot 'em ups.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the most frustrating games I have ever played
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was really surprised at how good this game was. It reminded me of good ol’ Metal Slug. The boss battles can get a little frustrating, but overall it was a lot of fun to play. If you want to learn about the true history of the Italian American… this is the game for you!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its good and a bit replayable depending on if you like it on or not i will give it an overall rating of 7/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →TL;DR - Great sidescroller shoot-em-up that suffers from unbalanced single player difficulty. The game is 100% balanced for multiplayer. PROs: - Great art direction. - Wonderful voice acting - Funny tongue-in-cheek humor - Fittingly thematic music. - Easy to learn controls, even on keyboard. - Multiple checkpoints in each stage. - Fast loading screens. - Multiplayer is balanced far more fairly than single-player. You only lose when all players die, respawn timers are 3 seconds, ressing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Funny game, if you want to finish i game in a couple of hours and have fun doing it this is your game. there is a variety of weapons and enemys. i enjoyed playing it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was an okay game, I'd give it a neutral rating if steam had the option but the weapon switching alone was pretty of putting and often resulted in unnecessary deaths. The lag to switch weapons and having to scroll through each 1 to get to the 1 you wanted wasn't great, almost like this was intended for mobile and disregarded the other hundred something keys you can get on a keyboard and I played it on a controller/handheld the whole time. The only work around was pretty much dying and then…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best, memorable side-scrolling run and gun game. Great to play alone or as co-op. Highly recommended.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doing a late night stream of Guns, Gore, & Cannoli 2 tonight. It's a game where you fight zombies, cops, and fascists. Seems appropriate youtube.com/@classcabinet
unlabelledView post →Low budget game, but charming. 7/10 for the story, gameplay and atmosphere combined(btw shouldve added an option to lock framerate at 60,cause you might face stutters)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Here's a review for Guns, Gore & Cannoli: Guns, Gore & Cannoli: A Violent Trip Through the Depths of Madness Guns, Gore & Cannoli is a side-scrolling run-and-gun game that throws you into a hyper-stylized, over-the-top world of mobsters, gangsters, and the undead. What makes it stand out: Visceral Combat: The game delivers on its promise of guns, gore, and cannoli. The combat is fast-paced and incredibly satisfying, with a wide array of weapons to unleash mayhem. Unique Art Style:…
