![]() Basically, these are just here due to the earliness of the demo, and these are more just feedback. Now, there are a few cons, but these are more just things that the developers will fix eventually (Hopefully, all the best to them). If you liked SoulsBourne at all, you should definitely take a look. This game is basically space Dark Souls, with an awesome blend of sci-fi and fantasy. ![]() Though the feature needs a little work to keep both players progress, it's an awesome starting point. And it isn't even just co-op, the second player can spawn in as an enemy to fight against the first player if you get tired of jolly cooperation. Though in the demo there are issues with this, such as my second player losing progress if they left and rejoined, the idea of having another player to trek through the darkness with is absolutely awesome. Whereas Dark Souls has an unorthodox style of multiplayer, in Hellpoint, you can literally play split screen with a friend. This is something we don't see a ton of in a lot of games today. I had a blast learning what each weapon's abilities were, and it made each one feel fun and unique to use, and rewarding to stick with. I was promptly given some kind of staff-polearm-sla♥♥♥♥hing, which allowed me slow but fluid and long range strikes, and went on to gain abilities such as extending glowing yellow energy blades on the end, covering myself in a shield, and creating a huge, yellow explosion. From the 3 starter classes in the demo, you get a good variety of equipment to try out, and learn the way weapons become stronger and gain new abilities. Dark, spooky atmosphere Even though I have virtually no idea what's going on in the demo, the darkness of the station, the unnatural enemies, the faint background sounds, everything feels deliciously dark, in a similar manner to the feeling I got from Bloodborne, but with a sci-fi vibe that makes it feel unique. Though the animations transition slightly choppily right now, most animations look great, and the controls are relatively responsive and you can pull off your Dark Souls style dodging right under the enemy's strike with a perfectly timed roll, and counter back with your own flashy weapon. Great style of design, feeling very sci-fi, but also fantasy-like enough to have magical abilities. Though this is obviously a very early build of the game, what is there looks alright, and with some polish, could become something truly amazing. What is it like? It feels a bit like Dark Souls or Bloodborne, except the setting is a fantasy-like sci-fi space station. I've only played Hellpoint for a very brief amount of time, but from what I've seen, it's one of the best projects I've seen for a long time. ![]() A special take on the new game plus design leaves you wondering if you truly discovered the real secret of Hellpoint.The path you take inside the open-world level design determines which enemies take control of various parts of the station, or which cosmic gods will accept to challenge you.Plan and commit to your own network of quantic fast travel checkpoints but think carefully as quantity is limited per playthrough.Find your own balance of risks and rewards by performing strange rituals that affects the power and resilience of the enemies.Surprise your opponent by forging your very own supernatural skill using our revolutionary power crafting system.Venture alone, with or against others in multiplayers, and dedicate your character to a Cult.
