Johnny Trigger

Johnny Trigger is a one-button action shooter built around timing. Johnny runs, jumps and somersaults through each hideout automatically, and all you do is click or tap to pull the trigger. The catch is that every bullet counts: fire too early and you waste it on a wall, fire too late and a gangster puts you down, so you have to shoot in the split second where a target lines up with the barrel while Johnny is mid flip.

The action slows down dramatically the moment an enemy enters your sights, giving the whole game a stylish, cinematic feel as bodies fly across the room in slow motion. Levels get busier with enemies on multiple floors, hostages you must not hit and bosses that soak up several shots, and clearing a stage without a single miss pays out bonus cash. That money buys new weapons with faster fire rates and bigger magazines, which makes the crowded later levels much more manageable. If you like stylish, time-bending shooters, try Time Shooter 2 next.
