A MODERN, YET CLASSIC SCI-FI ROGUELIKE,
SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR TO D**M, THE ROGUELIKE by the creator of D**m, the Roguelike.

AN EPIC BATTLE OF A LONE MARINE AGAINST THE FORCES OF HELL,
TAKING PLACE ON THE MOONS OF JUPITER.

Jupiter Hell is a 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, including (but not limited to!) 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 turn-based, grid-based permadeath and fully procedural levels, all in glorious 3D visuals. Get ready for 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.

Welcome to Jupiter Hell.

ROGUELIKE!
  • Permadeath adds tension and significance to gameplay decisions
  • Turn-based and grid-based world to emphasise tactical decision making
  • Procedural environments mean you never know what’s lurking behind the next corner
  • Brutal but fair difficulty will have you constantly coming back for more

FAST-PACED GAMEPLAY
  • Dynamic turn-based action with adaptive animation lets you play at your own pace
  • Intuitive UI for clear and fast decision-making
  • Streamlined gameplay centres on the action instead of menu micromanagement
  • Action-centric game flow with repeated peaks of blood-stained joy


EXPERT PROCEDURAL GENERATION
  • Sadistic algorithms create unending challenges
  • Randomised missions intertwine with adaptive plot arcs for continuous variety
  • Generated events and environmental interactions keep you constantly engaged
  • Built upon decades of expertise in producing truly engaging procedural content


RUTHLESS ENEMIES
  • Highly varied enemies require different strategies to beat, especially in combination
  • Unique enemy behaviours and skills
  • Legendary boss battles that will test your worth as a player
  • Advanced difficulty modes and special challenges for the most masochistic players

Game looks interesting and at least worthy of actually being called a roguelike. However, that was a terrible kickstarter video and possibly the reason it's not funded yet.

A bit of a letdown. No diagonal movement (you can move this way but it's counted as two turns), the combat has strange dynamic and feels weird. And a lot of bugs.
I was counting on DoomRL 2.0 but right now it's just subpar.
