Remember ‘Duck Hunt’ for Nintendo? Well replace the ducks with bats, take away the annoying dog, add some modifications and a cheesy story line, and you have Bat Hunt.


I started this game as a grade 10 project, and continued to work on it well after I submitted it for marking. It’s been modified and updated many times, as I never feel that is actually complete; there is always something to add or change. I most recently improved the interface, and coded a highscore script. Unfortunately I didn’t read anything that would allow me to implement PHP on NG, but be sure to comment on my interface.


Anyway, Bat Hunt has finally reached a point where I am ready to accept criticism from a larger audience. Who knows, maybe I’ll be inclined to make a sequel. So tell me what you think; what can I add, change, or remove to make it more enjoyable? I would like to add more enemies, and maybe even some bosses. The audio needs some work, I know, it needs some background music. I also wanted a cool screeching sound effect for when the bats die; maybe you can suggest a free one.


Please enjoy!

Haha ok this was fun, and entertaining, at first I though another clone but it was better then I thought, the bats were really detailed, the animation on the flying was a bit slow but still good, and i like how more and more keep coming, also nice job on alerting the user to reload I wouldn't have known unless it blinked of course I played duck hunt but have not for some time, anyways fun game. Faster animation on the flying of the bats, would be my best bet, but other then that it doesn't need much improving. A fun classic of duck hunt but with bats makes it interesting decent artwork as well.

You took the NES original Duck Hunt and added bats. There is nothing new or original here. You could add upgrades that could help you shooting the bats.

Is it the most original idea? No. But it did steal 15 minutes out of my life, so that counts for something. You weren't lying. the storyline is pretty stupid.
I liked the fact that I was shooting bats. I pretended they were the wretched bats from Castlevania.
It was kind of dull since thee was no background music, and the only sound effect was the gun shot.
At least you admitted there were problems, that's the first step to improving anything. I would say try to give it something to make it unique, besides a pallet change.

gay

it was kinda gay and boring

Duck Hunt with bats!

Duck Hunt with bats! How original. Not!!!!!

Come up with your own ideas. Don't take a nintendo's idea!
