        Mine, too! This game is great, but tough as nails if I remember correctly!

          @AndersHP Very tough game to play ! Sometimes enabling a couple of cheats makes it easier to play..haha ! I'm a big fan of the Metal Slug series and this was made by the creators of Metal Slug before MS was created.

            I remember 720 being really cool in the arcades, but the controls are very difficult to feel "natural". In The Hunt is a cool twist on the "Metal Slug gameplay".

              @IanDaemon Thats because the joystick on the arcade machine is special, I believe it doesn't center or something like that.

                @ByteThis I know, and graphics style is quite similar. Very cool game indeed.

                  I wasted a lot of time (and quarters...) on 720 in my youth. Never played In the Hunt. Will have to try it.

                  System Config: Retropie 4.4 with full desktop, RPi 3B, 256gb SD, 5v 2.1A 5,200 mAH USB battery. EasyMSX controller mounted with Pimoroni Hyperpixel 4 (non touch). Also running 4.6 on a 4gb Pi 4 serving as my primary desktop computer now.

                    I remember two cabinets in the arcades for 720....an initial "skateboard" control cabinet and then later a "traditional" control cabinet.

                        Maybe I'm going crazy.

                          It looks like the game doesn't have a hiscore or attract mode to show the hiscores. I took a screenshot after beating the 1st level (got shut down early in the 2nd). Seems like a slow paced shmup, easy to get into. 88500 so far.

                          EDIT: I used this guide to learn about the power-up system. It's briefly explained in the game's poster.

                            In The Hunt is a cool, slower paced, game. I dig it.

                              OK, so it turns out there's a hiscore - it just appeared at the end. Didn't get much further than the previous hiscore, but managed to improve it slightly - 105200.
