Hunting Pearl Creek seems like a game that can be fun for those types of players who enjoy playing 2D Platformers, but it doesn’t seem like a game that has much replayability as it’s the exact same 9 levels over and over again. It would be nice to see more levels added to give it more of a variety. The music is difficult to deal with when playing after a long time, however and is quick to be muted. I couldn’t return to Hunting Pearl Creek after finishing it, which is just disappointing.

The music is simple, but after listening for an hour or two, it became too annoying to leave on. The sound effects, however, from its beeping and booping as characters talk, the sound of explosions, and the pew pews from the laser guns, were all great.
