Pixel Hunting.IO

Stalk blocky deer through pixel forests, line up a clean headshot, and keep one eye on the treeline before another hunter drops you.

Pixel Hunting.IO doesn't waste time with tutorials. You spawn in a blocky wilderness, rifle already in hand, and the only goal is to outscore everyone else before the timer runs out. Deer, boars, birds—everything that moves is fair game, and every kill dumps points straight onto your tally. The catch? Other players are doing the exact same thing, and they aren't shy about turning their scopes on you. That right-click zoom is your best friend. Holding it steadies your aim just enough to land those long-distance shots, but it also narrows your view, so you'll get ambushed if you camp in one spot too long. The F key (or touch on mobile) lets you pick up dropped loot—better rifles, ammo, occasionally a health pack—and you'll need it because the starting weapon feels like a peashooter once a veteran with a scoped rifle spots you. I died three times in my first match trying to knife a boar because I forgot the loot key existed. What keeps me coming back is the tension. You'll track a stag for a full minute, wait for it to stop moving, and then hear footsteps behind you. Do you take the shot and give away your position, or swing around and hope it's a friendly? It rarely is. Pixel Hunting.IO is simple, ugly in the best way, and way more competitive than it looks.

Move:WADS,Shoot:Mouse Left,Zoom:Mouse Right,Pick:F or Touch

Use right-click zoom sparingly—it slows your turn speed and makes you an easy target from behind. Pick up loot with F immediately after a kill; better rifles spawn near water and dense tree lines. Don't shoot the first animal you see if you hear footsteps—wait and let someone else become the target. Move after every shot, especially if you missed; sound travels and players will zero in on your last position. Aim for headshots on deer and boars; body shots take two or three hits and waste precious ammo. On mobile, tap the right side to shoot and left side to move, but use a stylus or thumb for quicker reactions.
