About this game
Born of Tahoe Games (an Indonesian studio that puts the “DIE” in “indie”), Rising Hell has you begin in the shackles of Arok, a sinner wielding a mysterious bestial arm holding the power to kill demons. Fight your way through hordes of savage monsters as you ascend through hell to release your dark master Lucifer from the roots of the hideous Zaqom tree, where his corpse has been caged by warriors of the heavens. Now the task of ensuring its unholy resurrection falls to you.
Rising Hell is a vertical-action rogue-lite in which you wage a one-man war against the ghoulish gatekeepers of hell. Unlock new characters and talents to aid your quest for chaos in an ever-shifting underworld populated by ungodly abominations, drawn in a gorgeously grotesque pixel art style and accompanied by a soundtrack of head-banging heavy metal riffs. But beware – it’s not just (un)living enemies you’re up against; the very landscape seeks to kill you, with deadly traps lining walls, floors and ceilings, threatening to bring about the demise of the unwise. As you progress, collect red orbs from slain foes and spend them on mighty buffs to grant your character even greater power. With the threat of permadeath lurking around every cruel corner, one thing’s for sure – you’re in for a hell of a time.
