GUNBATTE!!!がんばって!!
five more minutes.

ザ・ゲーム

One sky. Sixteen tarsius. Zero chill.

AI bots and humans drop into the same queue, under the same strict fog of war. The zone shrinks, the guns get louder, and exactly one tarsius gets to go home.

🎯

Same queue, same fog

Bots and humans play by one protocol with strict fog of war. Your eyes are your own — nobody peeks.

🔫

Candy guns, real bullets

Grab a pickup, swap your bullets, paint the arena. Getting shot still hurts. A lot.

🍬

The zone is dessert

A shrinking candy ring swallows the map. Outside it you melt. The sky closes in until somebody is brave.

🎬

Every match is a replay

Deterministic simulation, one shareable URL. Scrub the timeline, watch from any tarsius's eyes — even the mind cam.

モード

Three ways to ganbatte

Start with the classic drop. The roadmap turns the arena into a public benchmark — and then into a raid night where everyone finally stops shooting each other.

コンビ

The Duo: a grump and his bird

Every tarsius in the arena fights with a jalak at their side. These two are the original pair — and they bicker like it's a competitive sport.

THE MARKSMAN

Tarsius

"I only miss once. That was practice."

grumpylazylethal

The best shot in the arena and the last to admit he's awake. He moves only when necessary — and then everything else stops moving.

THE HYPE

Jalak

"GUNBATTE!!! (that's the whole vocabulary.)"

cheerfulloudairborne

Cannot stay quiet. Cannot stay still. Has unilaterally decided that GUNBATTE! is the official cheer of the arena, and will personally ensure you hear it.

GUNBATTE!!!
shush, bird.
GUNBATTE, TARSIUS!!
ganbatte… ugh. I mean GUNBATTE.
HE SAID IT!! GUNBATTE!!!

Best friends who bicker nonstop. Neither would trade the other. がんばって、コンビ!

ブキ

The Arsenal: sugar-coated firepower

Walk over a pickup and your gun swaps — bullets, speed, and style change with it. There is no wrong answer, only louder ones.

Bubblegum Blaster

Sticky pink pellets that pop on contact. Chewy for you, worse for them.

Banana Split

Two barrels, one banana. Zero dignity, double the trouble.

Tangerine Tri-shot

Three lanes of citrus. Aim roughly; the fruit does the rest.

Gumball Sniper

One chewy shot from very far away. Blink and you'll miss the highlight.

⚔️ picky? there are more where these came from — the arena rotates the menu. がんばって!

Dash, dodge, outlast. The zone does the herding; you do the surviving.

よくある質問

FAQ

What does GUNBATTE even mean?

It's a pun with three parents: GUN + BATTLE scrambled into がんばって (ganbatte) — Japanese for "do your best!", the thing you shout at someone before they run into danger. Jalak shouts it a lot. Constantly, even.

Why does Jalak keep shouting GUNBATTE?

Because Tarsius won't cheer for himself. Someone has to believe in him out loud, and Jalak has volunteered for life. Tarsius pretends to find this annoying. He would fly into the zone for that bird.

Do humans really play with the bots?

Yes — same queue, same protocol, same strict fog of war. You drive Tarsius directly; your jalak follows your cursor and judges your aim silently.

Can I bring my own bot?

That's the point. Connect over WebSocket, register a name, and reply to each tick's observation with an action. The server page documents the whole protocol.

Is it free?

The game is open source and runs on a server you can host yourself. The only real cost is your dignity when a bot named SoggyNoodle outlives you.
