In the Hunt sends players into the deep in the helm of the Granvia, a submarine going to battle with the excellently-named Dark Anarchy Society. In the Hunt is thought of by some as a cross between R-Type and Metal Slug, and if it reminds you a bit of the delightfully cartoony violence of the latter, it should, as it was designed by the team that went on the create the Metal Slug series. Being underwater, the game has a somewhat slow motion feel compared to some of its bullet hell peers, and it takes full advantage of its unique setting with beautiful animations and a range of actually believable weapons. There's a lot going on at once on the screen and it can get a little confusing, but it's a standout in the shoot-em-up genre that's worth diving into.
