▶

After years of development, it is with great pleasure that I can finally announce - Jupiter Hell comes out of access - we're out of Beta and releasing on time! This is not just a "final touch" update. No, that would be too easy! This is a complete replacement of the fourth and final episode - Beyond is no more, welcome Dante Station!
Along with Dante comes a completely new final boss and a new complex, challenging and demanding boss fight! Expect to die xD Moreover, three new enemies have been added. One is the summoner who relieved of boss duty took the much more relatable "warlock" name (and comes with an arch and exalted variant!), with completely new mechanics. You may meet him as early as Io. The other two are robotic enemies encountered only on Dante Station. The sentinel might be annoying, but fairly weak. The guardian you should fear. Testing required two nerfs already :). Additionally we've done a lot of UI UX improvements, we hope you'll notice them yourself when you play! And as usual, a ton of bugfixes. I tried to keep this short today, as I hope you cannot wait to dive in! [previewyoutube=n9kAy6wigGQ;full][/previewyoutube]

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.
