About the Game

DEATHGASM

A METAL-INFUSED NIGHTMARE AWAITS!

Prepare to shatter skulls, slice through legions of hellspawn, and rock out in Deathgasm, a blood-drenched retro action-horror platformer inspired by Jason Howden’s cult horror-comedy masterpiece!

The Black Hymn has been unleashed, and now Hell itself is bleeding into reality. Play as Brodie, Zakk, or Medina and fight your way through nine brutally challenging levels—each inspired by Dante’s Inferno and swarming with demonic horrors. Arm yourself with whatever you can find—chainsaws, axes, guitars, and more—as you battle through hordes of the damned and take down monstrous bosses based on the most twisted villains from the film.

FEATURES

  • METAL-AS-HELL 16-BIT ACTION Classic side-scrolling combat fused with an insane chiptune metal soundtrack. Hack, slash, and blast your way through demonic nightmares playing as one of three heroes all while wielding brutal (but breakable!) weapons.

  • HELL HAS OPENED – Traverse the Nine Circles of Hell as seen through the lens of suburbia, brought to life with grotesquely gorgeous pixel art. Face twisted horrors in Greypoint’s ruined streets, battle monstrous gluttons inside a demon’s gut, and survive the wrath of a cursed heavy metal rager from beyond the grave.

  • BLOOD-SOAKED BOSS FIGHTS – Go head-to-head with screen-shattering bosses straight out of Deathgasm. Survive multi-phase battles against possessed rockstars, demonic neighbors, and the ultimate horror—Aeloth himself.

  •  MULTIPLE PLAYABLE CHARACTERS – Choose between Brodie, Zakk, and Medina, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles. Will you rely on speed, brute strength, or balanced combat to tear through Hell’s legions?

  •  WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION – Smash, slice, and shoot with a variety of weapons—including everyday objects turned into instruments of death. But be warned: weapons degrade & break, so stay armed to disarm the legions of the Red Tide, literally!!

  • A LOVE LETTER TO HORROR & HEAVY METAL – Overflowing with nods to the grindhouse horror comedy favorite, take part in comically pixelated carnage with an over-the-top attitude that would make even the Devil headbang.

The gates of Hell have opened. The only way out is through the gore-soaked abyss. Are you metal enough to survive Deathgasm?
