7 itemsAbout the Game

Out of the ashes comes Inferno: a 2D platform action-adventure game heavily inspired by 16-bit platformers. In this militaristic setting, play as Kai; a sergeant in the Krorion Space Forces, searching for his ex-commanding officer, Ion, after a routine mission goes awry.

Tight and responsive controls deliberately designed to function on a 3-button Genesis controller, while keeping the same fluidity on modern gamepads.
Challenging gameplay and boss battles with escalating encounters that demand both quick reflexes and smart positioning.
Explore different, dangerous areas and interact with environments directly through gameplay.
Illustrated cutscenes that reveal Kai’s story without ever stopping the momentum.
