Played hunter hunted while being a teenager, don't know why but I ever finish it, and still after all this year's I feel like being hunted by hunter hunted, please bring it back, I need to save myself from this
Oh boy! this one takes me back.. Innovative and fun challenging levels, plus the option for splitscreen coop or deathmatch. All this backed up by an old reliable developer that made alot of quality games back then. This is really a Good old Game in every sense

Damn I remember playing this game as a kid! I wasn't good at the game lol, but it were really exciting and scary back then. I've been looking for this game for over 20 years without luck, until now.

I remember playing with my friends together using one keyboard, not sure if it's true though :D But I definitely played it A LOT. My first "serious" platformer I would say. Tons of weapons, sweaty gameplay, "sandboxy" levels where you need to plan your actions accordingly.
Hunter Hunted introduced a 3-dimensional aspect to platformers because your character could enter rooms in the rear wall of the screen and come back out of them. This was unique at the time and deserves GOG preservation for this aspect. It was also quite fun playing head -to-head against a friend.

Manhunt
ManhuntManhunt is a third-person stealth horror game. The game consists of twenty levels, and four bonus levels that can be unlocked; the levels are referred to as "scenes". Players survive the Scenes by dispatching enemy gang members known as "Hunters", occasionally with firearms but primarily by stealthily executing them in gruesome, over-the-top ways. The player is rated at the end of each level, primarily dependent on the gruesomeness of the killings and the speed of completion, from one (unimpressive) to five (extremely competent) stars. Executions are preferred in order to gain a higher score, thus encouraging players to play as viscerally as possible. The game's locales are full of "dark spots" and shadows where the player can hide while being chased by the Hunters; hiding in these dark areas makes the player invisible to opponents.
