About Jupiter Hell Classic

The classic DRL is getting its commercial Steam release with updated gameplay and Jupiter Hell-based expansion!

After over 11 years in hiatus ChaosForge resumes development on its original turn-based roguelike shooter, DRL. We're updating the game's mechanics, environments, content, graphics and changing the setting to match the one featured in its acclaimed remake - Jupiter Hell - and bringing the game to Steam players, as a fully-featured commercial spin-off/total-conversion, under the name Jupiter Hell Classic!The original DRL remains free on the ChaosForge website and will continue to receive updates alongside the new Jupiter Hell Classic version. Jupiter Hell Classic is continuing development of the entire series, now spanning over 20 years.

What to expect from Jupiter Hell Classic:

  • Classic, unforgiving, top-down, grid-based roguelike gameplay
  • Fast and fluid ranged based tactical combat
  • Control via keyboard only, mouse + keyboard or gamepad
  • Diagonal movement along movement based tactics
  • Environmental destruction and interaction
  • 4 episodes, almost 200 items, 25+ enemies
  • 30+ crafting assemblies, 3 classes with 5 master traits each (subclasses)
  • Steam Workshop support for all your nostalgia modding needs!

The demake of a remake of a roguelike unmake of a famous 1993 FPS shooter.

Read that again, let it sink in. The lore might be a bit confusing at first, but it all makes sense.
First, there was that legendary hell-shooter from the '90s. Then, in 2002, came a turn-based fan project that reimagined that chaos as a roguelike - fast, brutal, and built for coffee breaks. And players saw that it was good. For 14 glorious years, it brought turn-based carnage to a devoted fanbase.Then, in 2016, came the un-making. The hell-hordes of lawyers descended on the game and all that was left was three lettersD R L. Was it still good, though? Hell yeah. And then, in 2019, came Jupiter Hell. The modern(ish) remake. Still with us? Remake of the unmake.The year is 2024, and it's sure as hell time for the story to go full-circle with another demake. Jupiter Hell Classic, the demake of the remake of the unmake of the 2002 legendary roguelike that proved fast-paced action belongs in a turn-based RPG.

As someone that has been playing since DoomRL was in it's early stages, I was ecstatic to see this come out, and after the last couple patches, I can say this broadly meets or exceeds that game in pretty much every area. There's a ton of content- enemies, weapons, special levels, traits, consumables; all sorts of stuff. While there's some stuff I miss from the original, if I could only have one of the two, I'd rather have this game. And it's still got updates in the pipeline! And you don't have to choose anyways, because there's a DoomRL mod! Buy this game, it's a fantastic labour of love, built for the fans. In an era of lousy cash grabs, nostalgia bait and companies and developers who betray their own audience this game restores a lot of my faith in the industry. Cheers to an awesome developer and others like him, thanks for the awesome game!

This game is awesome. I love roguelikes and this is my favourite. If you like playing as a Marine send by PMC to some god forsaken base, stuck on some planet in our Solar System, that by the way, was a site for who knows what kind of blasphemous experiment gone wrong,(hi-tech or diabolical...), than this game is for you. It has great mechanics, good vibes / immersion, and you can have tons of fun playing it for many many hours. The coolest thing is the developer and the community. The developer is super kind person that listens to players feedback and you will always find him in the mood to chat about the game and help you out if you have and questions. Same is with community members in discord. They welcomed me with open arms, helped me in creating a mod for this game, and just nice people to hang around and talk about the game or whatever. All in all, this game is made with love and care and it shows. PS: Did I mention that you have great mods to pick from, one of them is complete overhaul of the game that sets you in the universe of famous demon slayer...!? Rip and tear Marines!

Even as an Early Access game, Jupiter Hell Classic is worth buying for the DRL (Doom Rogue Like) mode alone. In addition, Epyon continues to ardently revisit and rethink Jupiter Hell, making it feel and look like an even more traditional roguelike. The man has all my respect for his deeds: he still updates Jupiter Hell, even though it has been years since its release. That's the spirit, and that is where we should put our spare bucks.
