Coldshot

Fire one ricochet shot at a time; every wall it touches goes cold and stops being solid.

Every day: One numbered room a day, the same room for everybody, with five charges to hit the target; the score is how few charges you needed, and a day cannot be replayed. New puzzle: Midnight UTC.

Coldshot day 248 with par 3: a cannon aiming at a blue target through orange walls, four charges left and the last shot marked 2 bounces, out

Coldshot is a one-room-a-day aiming puzzle on itch.io. You fire a shot that bounces off the walls, and every wall it touches goes cold and disappears, so each ricochet changes the room it is flying through. Everyone gets the same room, with five charges and a par, and the score is how few charges you needed.

About Coldshot

Coldshot, by Graze Games, was published on itch.io in September 2026. Each day has one numbered room: a square board with a cannon at the bottom, a blue target and a scatter of orange walls. You aim and fire, and the ball reflects off whatever it hits. Every wall it touches goes cold and stops being solid, so the fourth bounce happens in a room that the first three created.

A dotted preview shows only the first two bounces. Beyond that you have to think it through, because the walls the ball will meet later may already be gone. You have five charges and the room shows a par. After each shot the panel reports how many bounces it made and where it ended up, such as out of the room.

The daily room is the same for everybody and cannot be replayed. If you leave halfway, it picks up where you left off. When you finish, a spoiler-free result block shows one mark per charge and nothing about the room, ready to paste anywhere. If you lose, the answer is drawn on the board before you leave. Every past day is in an archive with one go each, and Free Play offers a room that counts for nothing.

The game needs no account, download or install and works offline once loaded. On touch screens you drag below the board to swing the cannon or touch inside the board to aim at a spot; on a keyboard the arrows aim, Shift gives fine control and Space fires.

How to play Coldshot

  1. Open Coldshot on itch.io and choose Today's Room.
  2. Swing the cannon by dragging below the board, or use the arrow keys.
  3. Check the dotted preview of the first two bounces, then let go or press Space to fire.
  4. Watch which walls go cold and vanish, and plan your next charge around the new room.
  5. Hit the target within five charges, then copy your result.

Tips

  • Remember that a wall you hit once is gone for every later bounce in that shot.
  • Use Shift on a keyboard for fine aiming when the angle is tight.
  • Free Play is a good place to learn how the walls fall away before the daily counts.
  • Par shows what the room can be done in; aim to match it rather than rush.
