About Rooftop Snipers
Rooftop Snipers is a one-on-one action game with two inputs for each player: jump and shoot. The goal is to knock the opposing fighter off the rooftop, but every jump and impact changes the position of the characters. A good shot therefore depends on timing as well as direction.
Play against the computer or invite a friend to share the keyboard. Fight across different environments, including moving platforms and tilting rooftops. Each setting asks you to balance pressure on your opponent with the need to remain on the roof yourself.
How to Play Rooftop Snipers
Choose a match and use your two inputs to avoid being knocked off while aiming shots at the other fighter.
- Select a solo or two-player match and identify your fighter.
- Check your jump and shooting keys before the first exchange.
- Watch the opponent's position and the movement of the rooftop.
- Jump to change your position and time a shot toward the other fighter.
- Stay aware of the edge as the match continues.
Controls & Timing
A jump is also a landing
Jumping can help you respond to an incoming shot, but it also changes where you will land. Look at the space available around your fighter, particularly when the platform moves or tilts.
Watch the weapon
The fighter's ragdoll motion affects the weapon's direction. Follow its movement and fire at a useful angle. If the opponent moves after your jump, reassess the shot rather than relying on the same rhythm every time.
Controls
| Action | Player 1 | Player 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Jump | W | I |
| Shoot | E | O |
High Score Tips
- Learn the two buttons separately. Practice recognizing the effect of a jump before combining it with a shot.
- Watch the roof edge. Leave enough room to recover after a jump or impact.
- Wait for a useful angle. The weapon moves with your fighter, so a small change in timing can alter the shot.
- Read the environment. Moving or tilting surfaces can change a safe position into a difficult one.
- Observe your opponent. In a shared match, look for repeated jump timing and choose your response accordingly.
