7 itemsAbout the Game
Welcome to Hell, We've Been Expecting You.
Taking inspiration from rage-games like Getting Over It, Jump King, and Pogostuck, This is Hell is a frustrating experience with difficult controls. Each of the 2 joysticks on your controller move his massive fists, and your goal is to reach the pearly gates above. What awaits you in eternal paradise?
The journey is fraught with peril, featuring:
- Anywhere from 6 to infinite hours of gameplay, depending on how terrible you are. Many playtesters were unable to achieve divinity. Can you?
- Unique radio broadcasts featuring ads and interviews with the inhabitants of hell
- Up to 4 player local co-op. If you're going to be stuck in hell, it may as well be with your friends!
See you in the abyss!
