'Hellbound' Kickstarter Campaign Successful, Fully Funded

Hellbound is a first-person shooter game in the vein of the classics like DOOM, Quake, Duke Nukem 3D, Blood and many others.

Inspired by shooters of the past, the Hellbound experience is focused on shooting, explosions, blood and speed. You have never played something so GROTESQUE!

Players take control of Hellgore, a big-ass motherf*cker who kills demons in Hell. That’s it. Is there a story behind all this? Well… yes, there’s a story, but it's not that important! The real protagonists are the fast-paced action and the gory violence.

When it’s time to destroy demons with bones, bullets, or bare hands, Hellgore is the man for the job. This big, stitched-up slab of muscle has one thing on his mind: crimson carnage. Well, he has his own fully fleshed-out backstory, but that’s not important right now. Just know that he’s no stranger to gunning down the demonic denizens of Hell.

The campaign has raised $41.528, barely surpassing the goal of $40.000. With this sum, Saibot Studios is securing the development of Hellbound: Survival Mode, now available on Steam Early Access, a single player arena of nonstop action that challenges players to withstand hordes of enemies as long as possible. With future updates, the game will receive new content, including mechanics, enemies and items and the most powerful weapons of hell!

Besides, the developer team wil start working on the first level of the highly anticipated Single Player Mode, in the vein of latest Doom game. 

We finally made it, phew! It’s been a long journey so far and we fell as he have beaten the final boss. Like Hellgore, we’ve killed them all! Now, there’s a lot of work to be done. We’re really enthusiastic with all this”, says Tobias Rusjan, creative director of Saibot Studios.

Features of Hellbound: Survival Mode

  • Put yourself in the shoes of Hellgore, a huge-ass mother-f*cker killing demons in Hell.
  • Annihilate 6 terrifying enemies with 5 guns of gruesome power
  • Experience blood splatter from a first or a third person point of view.
  • Gameplay based on speed, adrenaline and gore!
  • Original soundtrack: stunning metal beats to accompany the slaughter
  • Global Leaderboards to test your survival skills to the limit

Hellbound is a ‘90s FPS, 20 years later with old-school gameplay, and new-school quality. Remember when shooters were brutally hard, fast-paced, and violent? Imagine that rendered grotesquely in Unreal Engine 4. In the Survival Mode available today for free, Hellgore smashes and blasts monsters in a wave-based arena, reveling in chaos as heavy metal and industrial music chugs in the background. Every wave summons hordes of enemies to cleave through.

Five weapons round out Hellgore’s arsenal in Survival Mode, with more to come through frequent updates. The Headcrusher, Simple Shotgun, Triple Shotgun, Indolora (remember Ol’ Painless from Predator?), and Rocket Launcher are his implements of destruction as he takes on the soldiers of Hell. Power-ups like Hell Damage, Hell Speed, and Hell Skin increase your attack power, speed, and explosive resistance respectively.

Hellbound will be available very soon in PC, first as a Survival Mode that will equip players with the heaviest fire guns of Hell to pit them against hordes of fearsome demons and other monstrous enemies.
