Space Hunters

About

Space Hunters is a 2D hand-crafted beat ‘em up where you play as a bounty hunter battling through hordes of enemies in a rough, profit-driven universe. The gameplay mixes fast hand-to-hand combat with brutal melee strikes and acrobatic kicks. You can play solo or team up with a friend for split-screen co-op. The PlayStation 4, PC, Xbox, and Switch versions all feature the same tight action and retro-style visuals, which make each fight pop. The game’s standout is its hand-drawn art, which gives it a distinctive feel compared to flashy 3D brawlers. The split-screen mode is a nice touch, letting two players kick and punch in the same screen without lag. While some might find the story a bit thin, the pure combat is praised for being responsive and satisfying. With a 78% on Metacritic, it’s a solid option for those craving fast-paced, gritty combat.
