Shoot the Turtle: Cannon, Bombs and a Jetpack
📚 Game Guides: games picked by genre, one page each
What is Shoot the Turtle?
You have a cannon, a few bombs and a jetpack, and you are trying to send a turtle as far as it will go. Each attempt pays out money, that money upgrades your gear, and the next shot carries further than the last.
How to play
Firing the cannon starts the run, and after that a click sets off a bomb under the turtle in mid-air for an extra shove. Jetpack fuel is limited, and burning it the moment you start to drop is what stretches the distance most. When the turtle hits the ground and stops, the run ends and you earn money based on how far it went. That money raises cannon power, bomb count and fuel, and the only goal is to beat your own record.

Tips
- Set the bomb off as the descent begins, not at the top of the arc. That is what lengthens the trajectory.
- Do not burn the fuel in one press; short bursts keep the height up for longer.
- Put your first upgrade into cannon power, because a weak opening shot is hard to make up for later.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a stage system?
There are no stages. Each run is a distance attempt and the money it pays goes into upgrading your gear.
Does it play on a phone?
Yes. Every move is a single tap, so touch devices handle it comfortably.
