Use headphones only with any virtual surround features turned off. Best HRTF effect at 1:30.

Okay, I know I said I'd be coming back on Feburary 15th, but I felt like I had to share this with you early because I thought it was hilarious. This is Deadhunt with OpenAL Soft's HRTF. I stumbled across this game on the Internet Archive and I thought it looked like a shitty shovelware game. It was, of course, but to my surprise it natively supported OpenAL. I figured I'd try it out since I saw no harm and it actually worked! The 3D positional accuracy isn't anything to write home about, but you can still tell enemies are behind you with ease unlike in the Doom 2016 virtual surround video.

This has to be one of the worst FPS games I have ever played. Deadhunt makes Rat Hunter look like The Deer Hunter. Yeah, you read that correctly. It so obviously wanted to be Serious Sam or Painkiller, but it completely fails to grasp what made those games so good. Enemies can outrun you and overwhelm you quickly, but you can't even kill them quick enough to get some breathing room because you constantly have to stop and reload. It feels like it wants to be a wave-based shooter, but enemy waves spawn long before you can finish killing the previous one. Your only hope of salvation are the power-ups which are completely RNG-based. I spent 18 minutes attempting to beat this mission because it was one of the few in the demo I could actually beat, but it turns out my practice run just a fluke.

Oh, and you gotta love how the "+250 points" power-ups are in English but the +500 and +1000 ones reveal the true country of origin this crap was made in.
