Hunted Forever is a flash-based platform game released in 2008.[1][2] It was single–handedly created by Evan Miller, who was a college student at the time he developed the game. Actual development of the game itself was accomplished in six weeks. Miller first published the game on the social gaming website king.com in October 2008. Since then, it has been spread to many other online gaming websites.[3]

The game made the top eighth spot in Time Magazine's "Top 10 Video Games of 2008" list. The game was praised for its style and innovation.[4][5] As of late 2008, the game has been played some 2 million times.[6]
