About the Game

Hideous is a dark fantasy boomer shooter forged in the fires of the old-school. Inspired by Heretic and infused with the chilling dread of Diablo 1, it drops you into a cursed realm rotting with undead corruption and arcane horror. Armed with devastating magic weapons—flaming staves, crackling lightning rods, and your own scorching fireball fists—you’ll battle through crypts and cathedrals infested with zombie warriors, skeletal cultists, and twisted fire-headed bosses.

Every corridor drips with doom. Every shadow could hide a spell-slinging Evil Mage or a lurking abomination. With fast-paced, skill-driven combat and an oppressive, gothic atmosphere, Hideous is a relentless descent into magical carnage where the only salvation is sorcery.
