Status Update: New Demo Live for Steam Next Fest!

A brand-new demo of Jupiter Hell Classic is now available as part of Steam Next Fest!

This isn't just a small update — it's a fresh, updated demo, with a proper set of character traits for the Marine, improved visuals, branches, generators and more enemy types! If you've played the old version, we strongly recommend diving in again — there's a lot that's changed, tightened, and tuned, and is more representative of what you can expect for the August Early Access launch!

[h2]How you can help[/h2]
If you enjoy the demo, please consider leaving a Steam review. It takes just a moment, and makes a huge difference during Next Fest — especially early on. Visibility is everything. Remember that Steam nowadays has separate pages for the demo - you can click the title in the box below, or go to the steampage from the demo in your library.

You can also support the game by spreading the word on social media, forums, or even poking your favorite streamer to check it out. Every bit helps!

Join our Discord for up to date information and a possibility to join expanded beta tests!

Jupiter Hell Classic is expected to land in Early Access this August, and Jupiter Hell proper (yes, we're still adding more stuff!) is expected to have update 1.9 within the next two months!

Thanks for helping us bring venerable DRL to the wider audience!

Sincerely,
Kornel Kisielewicz

Status update: Alpha Demo Release!

[h2]Marines![/h2]

Steam's Turn-Based RPG Fest is on, and it's too good of an opportunity to pass to release the first playable chunk of Jupiter Hell Classic. The game is deep in development, some features are already in, many more are cooking in the 'Forge, and many more can still be requested by the community. So, keep in mind this is all WIP! Let's call it an alpha-release of the demo.



Nonetheless, you get to play a little bit of JHC today:
  • one character class (no masters yet)
  • 1st in-progress episode (Callisto)
  • new bestiary, new items, new graphics
  • new DRL-engine features - i.e. JH-style firing, level branches, smoother animations and more!

We are progressing steadily, so do expect irregular, but frequent updates to the demo, up until the full game's release. On that note...

[h3]Please wishlist the game, so we can notify you when the full game releases![/h3]

If you haven't yet - please join our Discord server, to stay in the loop of upcoming updates, and reach us with your feedback in the place we most expect it.

[h3]That's it for today. Thank you for attention.[/h3]
[h2]End of transmission.[/h2]
