Play In The Hunt (World) Online
Pilot a chunky submarine through underwater chaos—rotate to blast enemies in any direction while dodging torpedoes and wondering why there’s a castle at the bottom of the ocean. The pixel art and controls make every explosion feel weighty once you get the hang of it.
In The Hunt, released by Irem in 1993 and playable today via MAME, is a horizontal shooter that arrived during the arcade era when developers were pushing hardware to its limits with detailed, fluid animation. It stands out for its underwater setting and the sheer density of its visual design, which gives every screen a cluttered, dangerous feel.
You control a small but heavily armed submarine, navigating through enemy-infested waters with the goal of destroying everything in your path. The submarine can rotate to fire in eight directions, allowing you to attack foes approaching from above or below, and you collect power-ups to enhance your main cannon and secondary weapons like homing missiles. The pacing is deliberate; you must carefully maneuver around narrow cave passages, avoid enemy fire and environmental hazards, and confront screen-filling bosses. It feels tense and deliberate, demanding precision rather than reckless speed.
