Blending together the turn-based action and roguelike genres is the development team ChaosForge. Partnered with publisher Hyperstrange, they are setting up to release their finished title Jupiter Hell by removing it from Early Access on August 5th! With the finished version of the game available, players can face all the monstrosities that lie in wait on the moons of Jupiter.
After entering Early Access back in March of 2019 and hosting a successful Kickstarter campaign, they are excited to release the game in full with a host of new features. These include:
Dante Station - The 4th and final act in the gripping story of one hero’s survival against Jupiter Hell. Final boss battle included!
Trials Mode - a new customizable and moddable way to enjoy Jupiter Hell your way - it’s your run, your scenario, your funeral.
Arena Mode - Defend against wave-based attacks of enemies, with quicker leveling and item acquisition between waves.
Endless Mode - Go through fully randomized levels without episodes, branches, etc, and see how deep you can get.
Classic Mode - No story, no branching areas, no special levels, nothing to distract you from sweet, sweet ripping and tearing through demonic hordes.
Its traditional roguelike turn-based gameplay meets with modern shooter sensibilities. Controls are immediate and accessible while retaining the back-end depth of a turn-based RPG. You can customize your character with new weapons, items, and abilities gained as you progress through a permadeath-prone hell. So, be prepared to rip and tear zombies, demons, and unmentionable monstrosities, using classic weaponry such as shotguns, chainguns, railguns, and the trusty chainsaw. All to the shine of CRT monitors and the tune of heavy metal.
You can get Jupiter Hell for PC via Steam, GOG, or Humble with a 20% discount during launch week.
