Reviews

“Huntdown is a rock-solid ten in our book, and this only happens when all the components are basically perfect and come together to make something so great that is impossible to be negative.”
10/10 – Gamereactor

“There’s a constant high-quality feel to everything that the game does, from a steady 60 frames per second to the clever level layouts that has you running and gunning, tactically taking cover and searching for a series of stashes in order to attain the maximum awards for each level.”
10/10 – Bonus Stage

“You might come for its highly stylised 16-bit aesthetic, but you’ll certainly stay for its authentic arcadey mechanics, amusing comedic overtones and unique boss battles.”
5/5 – Daily Star

About This Game


In the mayhem-filled streets of the future where criminal gangs rule and cops fear to tread, only the bounty hunters can free the city from the corrupt fist of felony. Lay waste to the criminal underworld and make a killing in this hard boiled action comedy arcade shooter.

KICK-ASS CO-OP, FROM NEAR AND FAR

Hunt solo or give suppressive fire and advance on the enemy together as you run, jump, and take cover in the mayhem-filled streets of the future. Whether your buddy is in the same room or on the other side of the planet, wreak havoc as a team through couch co-op or Steam Remote Play.


NEW ACTION-PACKED ARCADE MODE

It’s you versus the world as you’re pitted against players from all corners of the globe in a brutal battle to pummel your way up the leaderboards. Innovate and invent new ways to pulverize your foes to rack up your score, whether you make use of combo-kills, quickdraw weapon-swap bonuses, or just hurl criminals off the rooftops. In this nail-biting race against the clock, collect as many bounties as you can while you watch the numbers roll and strive to be the apex bounty hunter.


PLAY AS THREE LEGENDARY BOUNTY HUNTERS

  • Anna Conda: Ex-commando, firearms expert, and full-time loose-cannon, Anna will assassinate without question or mercy, as long as you don’t mind the collateral damage.
  • John Sawyer: Once a Special Forces cop who left the law behind. This scarred veteran has lost so many limbs in combat he’s practically half robot.
  • Mow Man: Modified recon droid, stolen and empowered with banned software. Trades bodies for cold hard cash. Don’t expect to be taken alive if Mow Man’s on your six.

OLD SCHOOL MODERNIZED

Hand painted 16-bit pixel art graphics and hand-drawn animations combined with fluid 60-FPS gameplay and an epic synthesized soundtrack.


20 LEVELS

Gritty, neon soaked, graffiti strewn 80s cityscapes to clear, each with their own infamous gang boss to terminate and bounty to collect.

FOUR UNIQUE GANGS TO DISMANTLE

  • Hoodlum Dolls: Violent feral punks winning the gang war with the toothless authorities
  • Misconducts: Organised hockey hooligans, experts in robbery and extortion with a penchant for explosives
  • The Heatseekers: Murderous motorcycle club. These rockabilly villains style themselves on the centurions of Ancient Rome
  • NO.1 Suspects: Masters of discipline and organised crime. Martial arts experts, these slick psychopaths control the night through their casinos and nightclubs

CHOOSE YOUR WEAPON

Confiscate machine guns, laser weapons, katanas, grenades and more, and turn them on their owners. Stab, shoot and explode your way through swathes of gangs and bosses and collect your bounty.
