What Huntdown is
Huntdown is an arcade game developed by Easy Trigger Games and released in 2020. It was published by Coffee Stain Publishing. It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Android, iOS, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity.
The premise, in the publisher's words
In the future, the police have lost control to the mighty gangs who now rule the streets. Where crime is king, the authorities put their trust in hired guns to solve the problem. A price is set on the gang leaders´ heads. It´s time for the Bounty Hunters — It´s time to hunt ´em down.
How it plays
It is played from a side view perspective. Its themes are action and science fiction. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer, Single player and Split screen. There are 19 achievements to unlock.
How it was received
Huntdown holds a critic score of 82 out of 100. That places it above 83% of the 2,164 rated arcade games in our database, which average 70. Games released in 2020 averaged 73, so it scored 9 points above the year average.
How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 8 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 21 hrs, roughly 2.6 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $3.99, that works out to about $0.50 per hour of the main story, or $0.19 per hour if you finish everything.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core Duo E6600 @ 2.4GHz, 2 GB RAM and Intel 4400, GeForce GT 8800, AMD Radeon HD 4650. At 2GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 2GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.

The cheapest verified price right now is $3.99 at GOG, 80% below its usual price.
What it launched against
Huntdown launched on 12 May 2020, within three weeks of Valorant, Deep Rock Galactic, Streets of Rage 4 and Tetris Effect: Connected. It reviewed better than 1 of the 4. It arrived 7 years into the PlayStation 4's life, so it was built for hardware developers already knew well.
Released around the same time: Valorant, Deep Rock Galactic, Streets of Rage 4, Tetris Effect: Connected.
