Custom Hunter Killer

Custom Hunter Killer was one of those games you'd find buried in the Flash portals of the mid-2000s. It fit right in with the era's simple, direct shooters, where you could jump in for a few minutes without much fuss. The game didn't make a big deal about who made it, and you just started playing.

You control a small, agile hovercraft from a top-down view. Your mouse directs its movement and aims its primary weapon, a rapid-fire gun for clearing the screen of smaller drones. The main goal is to survive increasingly dense waves of these enemies, which swarm in from all sides. You can collect power-ups that temporarily upgrade your firepower or grant defensive shields. The pace is relentless; the screen quickly fills with projectiles and targets, demanding constant dodging and precise shooting. It feels like a tense, chaotic scramble where a single mistake can end your run.
