About Rooftop Snipers
Rooftop Snipers is a wonderfully absurd 2-player physics duel that strips competitive gaming down to its most chaotic essence. Two ragdoll characters stand on a rooftop, and each player has exactly one button to control them: jump/shoot. The character automatically aims toward the opponent, so pressing the action button fires a shot and also makes your character lurch backward from the recoil. The goal is to shoot your opponent and knock them off the rooftop's edge — first to 5 wins.
Despite its simplicity, Rooftop Snipers has surprising depth. The recoil from firing can either stabilize you if timed right, or send you stumbling toward the edge. Jumping at the right moment deflects incoming shots. The physics engine creates endless slapstick situations — characters teetering on the ledge, accidental self-knockoffs, and the gleeful moment when a perfectly timed shot sends your friend ragdolling into the void.
How to Play Rooftop Snipers
Stand on the rooftop and use your single button to fire. Your character shoots toward the opponent — a hit applies knockback force to both characters. The one who falls off the roof loses the round. First to 5 rounds wins the match. The maps change each match, ranging from flat rooftops to uneven surfaces that add another element of chaos.

Tips & Tricks for Rooftop Snipers
- Fire in bursts, not spam: Rapid-firing pushes you backward repeatedly. Controlled, spaced shots give you better recoil management and positioning.
- Use the edge strategically: Standing near the middle seems safer, but a measured retreat toward your own edge actually gives you more shots before your opponent gets theirs in.
- Jump to dodge shots: Timing a jump just as your opponent fires can cause the bullet to pass under you, leaving them open for a counter shot.
- This is the best party game: Pull up a chair, hand someone the keyboard, and play best of 5. It's consistently hilarious with two human players.
