About Shotgun Farmers
Shotgun Farmers is a multiplayer shooter where missed shots become weapon plants. Players fire bullets into the ground, growing ammo that can be harvested, removing the need for a traditional reload button.
The game offers a grocery‑filled arsenal of vegetable‑themed guns, grenades, and melee tools, plus modes such as Chicken Run, Capture The Pig, King of the Crow, and Horde Mode. It supports single‑player, online PvP, co‑op, cross‑platform play, full controller support, Steam achievements, and leaderboards on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
01 / THE GUIDE
Planting Ammo
When a bullet misses, it plants a seed in the terrain that sprouts into a usable weapon plant. Any player can harvest these crops, turning missed shots into a shared ammo source.
Harvesting early gives immediate ammo, while waiting lets the plant grow a larger clip. This replaces conventional reloading and makes positioning and timing important during combat.
- Harvest quickly for a steady ammo flow.
- Let plants mature when you have cover for larger clips.
02 / THE GUIDE
Vegetable Arsenal
The title features weapons such as the Carrocket Launcher and Sniperagus Rifle, all styled after vegetables. Grenades and melee options follow the same grocery motif.
Each weapon appears as a crop that can be collected from the ground, giving players a range of fire‑power choices for different combat distances.
- Try several vegetable weapons to see which fit your playstyle.
- Mix ranged and melee tools for flexible engagements.

Game Modes
Modes like Chicken Run, Capture The Pig, and King of the Crow give players objectives beyond pure shooting, shaping how they use planting and weapon choices.
Horde Mode pits players against waves of zombie‑infected farmers and animals, ending with a final boss. Survival depends on efficient harvesting and coordinated firepower.
- Match weapon plants to the specific goal of each mode.
- Coordinate planting spots with teammates in team‑focused modes.
