The Shrink Ray is a slow projectile weapon that shoots a Shrinker Bullet which inflicts Shrunken onto the victim of the gun. Turning them extremely small, and decreases the damage they cause by 66%. Making any other non-shrunken character that comes to contact with a shrunken victim, squishes and crushes them, resulting in instant death and gibbing of the shrunk target.
The Scientist starts with this item and can be found obtainable through Mission rewards.

Tips and Strategies[]
- NPCs shrunk by the weapon will always flee from the player that shrunk them, often running out to the streets. And mostly results on a random wandering NPC such as Slum Dwellers accidentally crushing them.
- An simple but effective way to use this weapon is: when someone is running at you at full speed, run at them, and fire right before impacting.
- This weapon synergies perfectly with Taser and Freeze Ray. Also great with items like Dizzy Grenade or Paralyzer Trap. Items and traits that increases your speed or make your enemies Slow are also good.
- This weapon is best used on healthier or tougher foes such as Bouncers or Supergoons, turning them from a threat into a harmless and a minor annoyance that can be easily killed by walking into them, crushing them.
- With Penetrating Bullets, the weapon becomes much stronger, being able shrink groups of targets who can then be easily dispatched. A good trait for the shrink ray, as long as there aren't many bystanders.
