Here is a list of shooting games on Windows, this list is incomplete, but it can give you an idea of ​​the games that can be put in a Windows arcade, as well as the difficulties I encountered with make it work.
If you know other shooting games, I’ll add them to this list.

I did not have time to search and put download links, or links to gameplay videos. I’ll put them in a few days.

  19. Ah ! petite erreur de ma part et bonne nouvelle: Chicken Invaders 4 Ultimate Omelette est jouable à 2 joueurs simultanément, je m’en vais de ce pas vous chercher un lien de telechargement

    1. je vous présente mes excuses il semblerait que pour jouer a 2 sur chicken invaders 4 ulimate omelette il faille craquer le jeux apparement ce n’est pas une option possible d’origine. Ceci dit, voici le lien pour telecharger le jeu complet et gratuitement, meme si il existe d’autres liens: httpswww.myplaycity.comfrchicken_invaders_4
      supprimez de votre bureau les raccourcis pour d’autres jeux créés par le programme d’installation

      1. Salut, désolé je passe des jours compliqués ce qui m’empeche d’etre connecté autant que je le voudrai…
        pour répondre à ta question je crois que malheureusement on ne peut jouer qu a un seul joueur a la fois je vais réinstaller pour vérif et confirmer
