Demons with Shotguns is an action-indie title from MindShaft Games, LLC. The game supports 2-4 local players in frantic, twitch-style arena combat. Players choose from a roster of distinct characters including the Preacher, Demon, Angel, Antichrist, Nun, and Death. Combat unfolds across four interactive environments, each containing ten arenas. Gameplay involves picking up randomized tarot cards for buffs or debuffs, deflecting bullets with a shield, dashing for evasion or aggressive plays, and utilizing shotgun jumping for advanced traversal. A single-player and local co-op wave mode pits one to two players against six enemy types and a final boss battle with the Devil.
The game offers nine competitive modes, such as classic Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Soul Reaping variants, Capture the Soul, Last Soul Standing, and King of the Soul. Arenas include Death's Cemetery, Hell's caves with portals, and a mega city rooftop setting. An original soundtrack by VHS Glitch and voice acting by Jon Bailey from Honest Trailers accompany the action.
