THE WAR ON IO UPDATE

Welcome to Io, Marines - there's a war raging! There's a lot of meat in this release so gear up and get ready (and restart Steam to force the update!)

INTRODUCING IO

Weve added a whole new level, Io, placed between Europa and Beyond. On Io you'll encounter CRI - a "good" corporation who came to take out the trash. Unfortunately, that also includes you. Two new enemies from this faction can be encountered - CRI marines and CRI bots. NOTE: Io and it's content is a work in progress - there's only one branch, no special levels, and no new weapons (yes, they're coming!). Our next update should address that so stay tuned!

NEW TUTORIAL

Weve also added a full-blown tutorial for new players or to refresh your memory. Technically it's mandatory, but if you really don't want to do it, set skip_tutorial to true in the options. Weve also included is a more robust help system.

SCORING SYSTEM

Weve taken a look at the scoring system and revamped it so its easier to understand:


(score = ("depth reached" * 100 + "special levels cleared" * 100 + kill count + medal values)*(difficulty factor))

Were pretty happy withe this as it makes a bit more sense, but let us know what you think!

MUSIC UPDATES

Finally there's a lot more music added to Callisto by our Roland La Goy, and a general sound update for the enemies - turn those sliders up :P. So thats all for this release Marines. Our next major version should be out in ~two weeks and will include further UI color improvements, additional Io content and more so stay tuned! As always, see below for a full changelog and we await your feedback. Have fun with your new CRI friends on Io!

Jupiter Hell Linux [7.93 M]

Jupiter Hell is a classic, turn-based roguelike set in a 90's flavored sci-fi universe. Set on the moons of Jupiter, the game pits a lone space marine against overwhelming demonic forces. 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!

Dive deep into a true form of the 30 year old roguelike game genre that has resurged in popularity. Experience tactical permadeath challenges in glorious 3D visuals. Jupiter Hell is the spiritual successor to DoomRL, the parody roguelike that years ago streamlined the traditional format and popularised a new wave of accessible roguelikes. Distilled, hardcore gameplay, fast-paced challenge and limitless death all await.
