Jupiter Hell Classic is a old-school true Roguelike shooter with turn-based tactics, permadeath, procedural levels, and 90s sci-fi carnage in its purest form. Rip and Tear!
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.
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.
