About Public Land Hunter
Public Land Hunter is a retro hunting simulator that let's you hunt on procedurally generated maps and grow your hunting camp with additional hunters, weapons, animals and perks.
Procedurally Generated Maps
Each map in Public Land Hunter is procedurally generated. You'll find yourself hunting dense fall foliage, breezy summer clearings and sparse winter fields. This provides you with a unique scouting experience for each hunt, requiring analysis of the satellite map and looking for sign on the ground before setting up your ambush.
A True Deer Hunting Experience
With the procedural maps and the realistic deer AI, hunting requires strategy and an understanding of deer patterns, all of which are explained in the games tutorial.

Animal Variety
Hunt rabbits, grouse, ducks, pigs and deer, with the potential for more animals in the future. Each animal has its own patterns and AI. Rabbits roam the fields, grouse need to be driven from the tall grass, ducks are called in, pigs roam the woods at night and deer follow realistic patterns between bedding, water and food in the early and late hours.
Speed Up Time
Public Land Hunter features the ability to fast forward time in order to keep your hunts fast and exciting. While sitting in a treestand or a hunting blind can be relaxing when in the wild, no one wants to sit for hours waiting for a deer when playing a video game. The fast forward mechanic allows you to get right to the action once you're set up for an ambush.
Build Your Hunt Camp
Grow your hunt camp with additional hunters who specialize in different animals and weapons. Complete their tasks to unlock perks and additional hunts.

Arcade Mode
Public Land Hunter also features an arcade mode, where players can experience a truly retro experience and go after high scores that will provides even more unlocks.

Don't let the (very charming) art style fool you, this game is a hardcore deer hunting simulator. Just like real life, I can feel my marriage and my sanity unravel as I devote WAY TOO MUCH time to trying to get even just a doe. 10/10 would totally make my wife a hunting widow again1 found this helpful
Was thinking the other day that I wanted a 2D deer hunting game. Did some searching came across this. It's exactly what I was looking for! Has all of the aspects of a deer hunt in a quick, 2D format. Great for a quick 30 minute gaming session. Great replay-ability with the procedurally generated maps. Would recommend!1 found this helpful
This is the most unique hunting game i've played and i love it, the deer hunting requires a lot of strategy and patience and it's not a spot and stalk type of hunt which really makes it unique, you find their zones and tracks then plan out where you're going to set up depending on the map and wind. even though i noticed a few minor annoying bugs in the beginning the amount of content makes up for that, there is just so much to do and it's extremely impressive and inspiring that a solo dev made this as his first game
Fun little game for relaxing on the couch or just when you cant pick something to play. challenging in a way that keeps you going with a nice nostalgic feel to it. 10/10
Small and nice!
A genuinely fun and challenging little hunting sim. Most hunts take one to two minutes, making Public Land Hunter perfect for a quick break. Definitely worth the price.
