About the Game

Kettlebell: Inferno Hotel is a fast-paced 2D platformer inspired by the 16-bit classics of the ’90s — packed with humor, destruction, and pure hellish energy!

The main character, Mr. K, is an ordinary office clerk and an all-around nice guy. But fate takes a darkly comic turn: a ridiculous accident sends him not to heaven, but straight to the depths of hell.

There, he finds himself at the gates of the Inferno Hotel — a bizarre place where the circles of hell have turned into floors, each with its own rules and atmosphere. Determined to set things right, Mr. K seeks an audience with the Boss to finally clear up this cosmic mistake. But chaos has erupted in the hotel: the floors are sealed off, and he must overcome every trial to reach his goal.

You’ll descend through nine floors of the Inferno Hotel, with over forty diverse levels on your way to meet the Boss.

Features:

• Fun and dynamic platforming.

• Two game modes — Classic, with limited lives, and Arcade, where you can’t die but losemore points for every hit. You choose how to play Yourself.

• A mix of mechanics that might be new, yet feel like something you’ve known for years.

• Grotesque enemies and bosses.

• Surreal locations — from fiery factories to the park of the homeless souls.

• A cozy collection of retro-throwbacks, instantly recognizable to anyone who ever played classic games on Mega Drive and Super Nintendo.

• Humor, satire, and all sorts of weird stuff worthy of hell itself!

Kettlebell: Inferno Hotel is the kind of “HELL” you’ll want to come back to.
