I just wish the levels were longer, and a little less time spent on boss fights.HUNTDOWN REVEALS PHYSICAL RELEASE WITH 80’S-THEMED LOOT EXTRAVAGANZAĮasy Trigger’s highly-rated, red hot love letter to the 80s, Huntdown, has revealed a physical launch packed with an exclusive action figure, synth cassette tapes, artwork and much more! Truly a game that has not received the mainstream attention it deserves. The music, the sound design, the art, everything is awesome. I really appreciate the efforts they made to preserve the feeling like you’re playing a game from 25 years ago without improving the graphics to the point where it feels like a modern game. It doesn’t try to modernize the graphics too much so that it takes away from the old school aesthetics. The aesthetics found that perfect sweet spot between still feeling like this is a game from the 90’s, while going the extra mile to make it look REALLY good. Obviously it’s impossible to ignore the incredible pixel graphics and 80’s art design. The simplicity and challenge really brings me back the same feelings I experienced playing games from the 8 and 16bit era. The gameplay isn’t very deep, but it’s technical and challenging, which makes it very entertaining and rewarding. The gameplay isn’t very deep, but it’s technical and challenging, A must play for anyone who grew up playing the SNES or watching 80’s movies.
