Military Shooter Training — Play Free Online

Military Shooter Training is an action and shooting game that runs straight in the browser, with nothing to install. You move with the keyboard, aim with the mouse and fire at what the game puts in front of you. It is a sharp change of pace from the one-button climbing that Doodle Jump is known for.

The title points to a practice-range style of play, where the point is getting comfortable with the controls and sharpening your aim before anything harder. Sessions suit a few spare minutes: load the page, pick your starting point and shoot. The listing does not give details such as the number of levels, weapons or modes, so treat what follows as the confirmed basics rather than a full feature list.

How to play

On a computer, move with the arrow keys or WASD. The mouse handles aiming and also selects items in the menus. On a phone or tablet, you tap and swipe instead. Move with one hand and aim with the other, and keep your cursor near the middle of the screen so you can reach a target in either direction quickly.

If you have only played jumpers and runners, expect aiming to take over. In Doodle Jump you steer one axis; here movement and aim are separate jobs, and most of the skill lies in coordinating the two.

Tips

• Spend the first minute getting a feel for the mouse sensitivity of your own setup. A small, steady motion is more accurate than a big flick.
• Do not run and aim at once while you are learning. Stop for a beat, line up the shot, then move again.
• Use a mouse if you can. Touch aiming works, but it is less precise on a small screen.

Similar games on Doodle Jump

If you came to this site for the headline game, Doodle Jump and Helix Jump are the closest to a one-button arcade feel, while Bloons Tower Defense 2 is a more tactical way to pop targets. Fireboy and Watergirl and Ovo 2 are platformers that reward timing over aim. Military Shooter Training is the one to open when you want to practise pointing and shooting.

It suits short sessions on a laptop or desktop with a mouse, and it is still playable on a phone when you want something quick.
