From the developers of ‘Double Dragon One’. It looks like Irem’s submarine-based shooter In the Hunt could be getting a new enhanced port for Neo Geo hardware, thanks to the homebrew developer Casa De Ruivo.

In the past, for instance, we’ve spoken to Digital Eclipse’s president Mika Mika briefly about how that…
“Every typo could mean the difference between life and death”. Auroch Digital has just released a free-to-play spin-off of its boomer shooter Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun that pays tribute to Sega’s classic The Typing of the Dead. Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Words of Vengeance is a “creative twist” on the 2023 FPS title, which is based…
