Completed the full demo. First retro shooter I've played that truly carries the tone of Quake 1. Overall I really enjoyed Hell Hunt and think it has a lot of promise.
Pros
- Weapons and animations are all solid
- Consistent tone and style
- Enjoyed the grim environments and enemies
- Many sounds are amazing with a good pair of headphones; swimming underwater was my favorite.
- Loving the simple HUD that features ammo count for all weapons. Something I've always wanted but haven't seen before.
- Secrets are easy enough to find
Cons
- I know the game is called Hell Hunt. But the navigation leaves much to be desired. Second level took me over an hour. A minimap or redesign could really help.
- Bullet time doesn't seem to last long enough to get any real use.
- Almost all enemies are humanoid. An enemy like Quake 1's Fiend would work really well in a game that features bullet time and dashing.
- I enjoy ambient in games (Doom 64, WRATH: Aeon of Ruin) but the soundtrack feels non-existent. Never heard any obvious music till Level 2's fight. Something like dark ambient, with intense music during big battles could work well.
