About Small Arms War

Small Arms War was one of those straightforward shooters you'd find during the Flash era. It didn't have a complicated story or detailed graphics. You just loaded it up in your browser and started playing. The controls were simple, and the action was immediate.

You control a stick figure soldier from a top-down perspective. Your job is to survive waves of enemy soldiers who come from all sides of the map. You move with the WASD keys and aim your weapon with the mouse. The left mouse button fires, and you can switch between different guns using the number keys. You need to keep moving to avoid getting surrounded, and you have to reload your weapon manually. The game gets faster and more crowded as you progress, forcing you to make quick decisions. It feels frantic and direct, like a test of your reflexes in a confined space.
