description
Windowkill is a twin-stick shooter, but the game window itself is constantly closing in on you. Shoot the window edges to push it around your screen as you fight and dodge enemies and bosses in their own windows.

some youtube shorts says its free butit is realy free?
The 2.0.3 version is free, all of the others cost 5$
very cpu intensive in the late game im not sure if i could progress further than the smile face boss i got like 10 stars
this game page almost blew up my computer
YO! I LOVE IT!
you game has bugs and i couldn't see the final boss fix your gam
does the modding have menu or the unmodded?
10/10 game, also please add difficulties, its hard
is it free completly
yes
very game
/10
i opened the game but it didnt work
same
that's awesome man!
are there any mods
???
3.0 has mods support! Buy it on Steam :)
so the free version can't have mods?
The free version is version 2.0 which doesn't have official mod support
thank you for your answer
only for the paid version, you can get it here or steam
we should add a new mode named Masochist (Extruciatingly hard and makes all bosses have a EX variant)
the reason why is because.
out of spite
fire game
I'm on linux and it says "no compatable download were found" like bro wtf
opening windowkill-opengl doesn't do anything, it's still just an unresponsive white screen
thats just u lil bro
Oh... my... god... I've seen games that play with windows but not like this game, how incredible, I'm definitely going to buy it on steam!!
When I open the game outside of Itch the FPS is extremely reduced, making it practically unplayable :(
This is so cool! It's so chaotic and epic, you just get lost in the action. Easy 10/10.
Did I say easy? Yeah, nah, it gets really hard once the spikers come into play. 10/10 still applies though.
How to select a background other than the backing window? (example: use a downloaded png)
I use backing windows to prevent misclicks but it is one solid color and gets boring to look at soon
prob get the steam version for that
how do you get the page to look and act like that?
it’s beltfull really
also i think my computer doesn't support vulkan can you help?
If you're in windows, open command line and start the game with opengl3 by typing: " <path to the game> --rendering-driver opengl3 " (without the quotation marks).
the controls are not confusing, can actually be entertaining to play and creative, what can you ask more?
i wish it was free ):
it is
Um, just download it.
This game is so fucking good
Defined by NOT shooting enemies. that's the stuff.
very good game
make a free linux version pls
crashes every 2 seconds. no error message, no idea what's wrong
GRAHHHHHRHGRHGGGGGGGGGGG I COULD GO ON FOREVER BUT MAN IS IT LAGGY AT THIS POINT IM GETTING SLEEPY T_T
bro i couldnt even beat the eye snake boss (2)
i suck at this game bruh :(![](https://img.itch.zone/aW1nLzE2MDQwMjA2LnBuZw==/original/j%2BPcgO.png)
bro how do you beat boss 2???
I have developed a profound admiration for the interactive digital entertainment entitled "Windows Kill," deeming it a true magnum opus that remains elusive to the majority of individuals, rendering me overjoyed by the fortuitous happenstance of its discovery through the benevolence of an acquaintance.
jasjjasjs.
Realmente es muy bueno.
hey whostolemysandwich, have you found your sandwich yet?
also why have you put 133 comments on this game?
Yoo
:O best sandwich I've ever seen, I wanna be a master sandwicher like whoever made this
i need this for my school lunch asap
Jesus Christ
Dude, why are heals so hard to get, I press restock like 12 times just to get 1 heal.
don't forget you can manifest heal if you really need it
Wait... is that why manifest doesn't work? How do I manifest?
go to the "perks" section. you'll see an option called "manifest" under the "drain" perk (the red square). the you scroll down until you see the upgrade you want to buy (in this case, it's heal). then you buy it with the star. hope it helps :D
I just bought the game by the time I saw this comment thanks!
wow this is amazing
will version 3.0 be free in the future or n
