i really like this game and this Hellraiser setting (or like Horizon movie)

Hellpoint es un RPG de acción de tipo souls-like, que nos pone en la piel de un clon animado por la inteligencia artificial a cargo de una estación espacial inmensa, en órbita alrededor de Sagitario A; el agujero negro supermasivo que se ubica en el centro de la vía láctea, para recuperar la información necesaria que la permita retomar el control de la estación después de que haya ocurrido allí algo muy chungo y que iremos descubriendo con cuentagotas a medida que avanzamos por los oscuros pasillos infestados de amenazas y extrañísimos enemigos que ahora pueblan el entorno que antes estaba lleno de científicos. Parece que todo aquel souls-like que no está amparado bajo el paraguas de From Software, padres de la saga Souls original, es una mierda. Lo digo por muchas críticas infundadas que se le dan a este tipo de juegos. Pero esto no es en absoluto así. Hellpoint es un juego indie, con unos recursos de producción muy inferiores a Dark Souls, pero aún así consigue una ambientación excelente, combate resultón y un diseño de producción que si bien gráficamente es lo que es, se apaña como puede para ofrecernos una aventura satisfactoria que nos va a mantener pegados al mando varias decenas de horas. Hellpoint tiene todo lo que este tipo de juegos debe ofrecer para brindar una aventura satisfactoria, esto es: escenarios laberínticos interconectados, llenos de secretos donde encontrar extraños items de nombres aún más extraños que te pueden ayudar en tu aventura si descifras lo que son. Enemigos súper agresivos, que por pringados que sean te pueden mandar pal otro barrio a poco que te descuides. Jefes enormes que debes derrotar esquivando en el momento justo, aprendiéndote sus patrones y golpeándolos cuando la situación se de, no antes o después, por que de una hostia te vuelves a la última grieta estabilizada (hoguera). Muertes por mil motivos diferentes, bien porque has calculado mal el momento de los golpes, o porque has intentado llegar a ese ítem inalcanzable, que no sabes lo que es, pero te tiras a ello aunque debajo haya un abismo insondable, al que por supuesto caes, obligando a la siguiente iteración de tu yo a volver al mismo sitio a por los axiones (almas) perdidos. Todo eso y mucho más está en hellpoint. Un souls-like de manual que podéis jugar casi en cualquier máquina de la generación actual o la anterior. En el momento adecuado, por muy poco dinero. Si sois fans de este género de los RPG de acción difíciles y despiadados, no sois demasiado exigentes con el aspecto gráfico, que ahí es verdad que el juego renquea un poco. Os habéis dado ya muchas vueltas a los Dark Souls originales, podéis darle una oportunidad a este hellpoint. Un hermano pobre de los souls, pero con mucho que ofrecer.

Good game, feels like a nice little homage to the original Dark Souls. It has some great ideas with interesting enemy designs. The bosses are fine so far (haven't finished it just yet) and the music is also acceptable. Everything else seems just fine.

Hellpoint is a decent soulslike game that's not perfect but is very enjoyable in its own outright. Combat is good if a bit janky at times with plenty of fun unique weapons that unlock awesome skills the more you use them.. Performance isn't bad but could be certainly better. Exploration is the best thing about this game and holds plenty of secrets & goodies that really sell the whole Soulslike in space with Event horizon vibes. A recommend if you truly enjoy souls inspired games.

I enjoyed the game despite its shortcomings, combat is inspired on souls but more basic and much less polished, but on the other hand it has some additional features which makes it interesting. The best part of game for me is the atmosphere, the space horror thing hooked me up, level design is OK for the most part. Bosses are not very challenging nor very well designed, but other enemies can give you a good fight. I may return for a future dlc.

I liked it. It is a soulslike game in a space station. You don't know why you are there and who you are. The atmosphere is very mysterious and cold. Slowly you have to fight your way through several parts of the "world". It is not Open World, but several very big areas connected. Combat is simple but satisfying. Not as polished as Dark Souls of course, but for such a small studio a pretty good game! Bought it on sale for 3 € and needed about 40 hours. Some bosses are very hard while others are easy. Pro ---- - Unique atmosphere - Some bosses are very creative (graphics, moveset) - Challenging combat - Good art style Cons ------- - Easy to get lost in the interconnected huge levels - Enemy variety could be better - Some QoL features missing, for example selling gear is not implemented - It is too hard to find additional health potions, ok but I could Google that

It's like coffee... It's an acquired taste that can get quite addictive. You just have to pass the first 2 hours. After that, the game has a ton of stuff and features to discover.

I played Hellpoint with great pleasure. Exploring the Irido Novo space station was a lot of fun. Considering that this is a budget game developed by a small studio with a very small budget, then the developers are worthy of all praise. Pros: chic atmosphere of dark space fiction, an interesting world to explore. Cons: not interesting bosses, simple graphics. +1 point for the fact that the game is from a small studio with a meager budget.

For my personal experience has been impossible complete the game for a bug that block you in a room, shame.

If you like souls-like combat and enjoyed Bloodborne this game is for you. Do not play this game as your first souls-like game. Dark Souls and Bloodborne are much better, but this game gets a bonus for being playable on Mac.

Худший соулс-лайк, в который я когда либо играл. Хитбоксы забагованные, дизайн уровней однотипный, легко потеряться, противники однообразные.

Awesome Game. Looks great and need not so much System performance. A really good choice if u like Dark Souls and like Sci-fi. And the Bugs all rdy gone. BUY IT!!

Huge plus for coop and splitscreen. Gameplay-wise its a souls-like but lacking in quality. Visuals need work as well. Despite its shortcomings its a fun game

Игра не хватает с неба звёзд, у неё были проблемы с забагованностью (похоже, их всё же решили), остаётся очень запутанный дизайн уровней, на которых можно легко заблудиться, корявенькая, но стильная графика и порой странные хитбоксы у вражеских атак. Тут напрямую сказывается небольшой бюджет и, вероятно, неопытность программистов. Но у игры имеется и ряд плюсов, для меня перекрывших эти минусы. И в первую очередь это то, что в игре довольно много контента - приличное количество оружия, в том числе стрелковое и магическое, разнообразие доспехов, пассивные усиления персонажа, разнообразие игровых ситуаций и врагов. Локации, хоть и являются лабиринтами, имеют немало впечатляющих мест, но главное - множество секретов с ценной (и не очень) добычей, что очень сильно подстёгивает интерес к их исследованию, местами - "бектрекингу", что кому-то может и не нравится, но вряд ли это относится к любителям такого жанра игр. При этом, несмотря на дешёвые анимации и не лучшие хитбоксы - боёвка в игре интересна и неожиданно отзывчива, вероятно лучшая на фоне других недорогих (и части дорогих) "соулслайков". Имеется и неплохая атмосфера заброшенной космической станции с творящейся на ней непонятной чертовщиной. В итоге, игра весьма неплохая, если смириться с тремя условиями: - вы заблудитесь, и не один раз - у вас не должно возникать боли в глазах от графики не уровня ААА - иногда смерть будет не совсем заслужена из-за хитбоксов У меня же после прохождения осталось сильное желание продолжения. А ведь там ещё много чего осталось, за закрытыми дверьми и тёмных закоулках Ирид Ново.

I wasn't having much fun with this game so I put it down for a while and couldn't bring myself to pick it back up. The level design was pretty drab and I didn't much like the boss fights. I also wanted to play as a caster and built myself for it but 7 hours later I still haven't found any caster items/spells/whatnot. Date Dropped: 2020-08-02 Playtime: ~ 7h Enjoyment: 5/10 Recommendation: There are better Souls-likes out there.

TL;DR - Genuinely a more interesting take on the SoulsLike genre. Going truly into a sci-fi setting and experimenting with new ideas but still trying to attach itself to the "bonfire" system even if it's drastically altered. It has a "Dead Space meets Prey" vibe to it both to its strengths and detriments. Some of the bosses are fantastically designed but fall victim to the rest of the game's flaws. The most criminal is a severe lack of polish. If the game was polished it could probably get away with the all-around lack of explanation that extends to the story, map layout, and even items/usage. Overall it's a worthwhile game but not polished enough to really justify getting yet.

This is a good game. Great, even, when you consider it was made by an only 11 man dev team. It is like a heavy metal, space opera, lovecraftian souls-like mashup. I have enjoyed my time thus far and plan to continue playing it multiple times. Considering the state of AAA gaming right now, this is exactly the type of games that need to receive support and players. ***UPDATE: After a handful of patches, game is even better. I am loving the feeling of being lost in a game for the first time in a while. Increased rating to 9.

It's fun with plenty of charm. I really enjoyed the theme. It's not flawless, couple of bugs here and there but definitely enjoyable if you give it some leniancy.

Fun game. Pros +cool theme +fun combat +nice variety of weapons and armor + lots of areas to explore +a few fun bosses for an indie game +devs update regularly +offline splitscreen coop soulslike (easy buy on this alone) Cons -abit clunky -lots of glitches -easy to get lost -over saturation of secret areas -confusing lore

Man, i love this game. The atmosphere struck a chord with me and if you enjoy that horror occult space theme thats already enough reason to get this! The animations are nicely done and the armor and weapon choices are diverse enough for some awesome rpg magic! The story is mysterious like dark souls but a bit confusing to where you might need to lookup the lore abit The bosses are hit or miss alot of the times but man the bosses that are done well really make the game worthwhile. I counted 3 bosses that really gave me the dark souls/ deadspace feel which i think was enough to warrant multiple playthroughs. I mean its 35 bucks and theres alot of content presented in the vanilla experience. Also i recommend transferring over the demo characters from thespian feast by loading up a file after choosing the demos class that way you can start with a level boost. Yea theres some glitches but they tend to work in your favor more than not unless you hate glitches altogether. Overall the funnest soulslike since the soulsborne games. Much more enjoyable for me than nioh or the surge games

Hellpoint reminds me of bloodborne/dark souls the art and visuals are on point but Hellpoint has a lot of bugs, I'm scoring this game on enjoyment and playability not because of bugs

Super jeux, j'ai passé un très bon moment. Même si on sent les limitations du studio, je l'ai fini sans aucun temps long, n'est ce pas les derniers AAA ? Pour un studio indépendant, c'est de l'excellent travail !

If you're in the mood for a Souls Sci-Fi game, this might be a game for you. It's traditional Dark Souls combat, but with the addition of jumping and the storyline is opaque. If you were interested in the online multiplayer aspect of this game, don't bother with it. At this point, it is so bug riddled that while you may successfully connect to someone, chances of successfully doing anything in the game are exceptionally low. Hellpoint online multiplayer is P2P, and a crude implementation at that. After some patching, it might be worth buying at that point to experience online multiplayer but the question is how many people will be playing at that time.

Good atmosphere and music. Great scifi soulslike. The developer is working on bugs as they are known

People are being hard aren't they? The game is good I finish it with no problem with just the run of the mill bug but nothing serious, for an indie game is ok. It has a good horror atmosphere that gives the game an identity that separates it from others souls like which I like. Just like any other souls like is not for everyone but is a good game just make sure that you know you are playing an indie game

Truly made in USSR. Bugs all around. U can kill boss who wont drop essential item. GG start over. F U - refund

Absolutely excellent game. Can't recommend enough. If you enjoy Sci-fi horror, this is a must-play.

Great game. Plays very smoothly, havent encountered any bugs yet. Great premise and environment. Must buy if you are a Dark Souls fan. Its a true Dark Souls with coop

Game dont looks Bad, but it promise a Online coop, and there is no one. Today come 3 Patches for the Game, but it still doesnt work. I buy the Game to play with a friend online coop, and we cant do this. For this are this low rating

Game is great, many bugs are already fixed, it feels like many people are forgetting that its a indie game, the combat is great, the weapons and armors are great, the world is great, i think this is one of the best Souls-Like games out there, many bugs from other reviwes are already fixed i hope that they will change theres later. if you like souls game and stuff just buy it and support the developers, its a great game ! it has is flaws but its still great

Сетевой код сбоит, багов хватает, графика уровня playstation 3, но! Но игра действительно интересная, здесь просто интересно исследовать локации, да и в целом геометрия уровней к этому очень располагает. Бэктреккинг присутствует в большом объеме, уже на вводной локации замечаешь множество мест, до которых пока не добраться, но понимаешь, что такая возможность предоставится в ближайшем будущем, причем не всегда возможность куда-то проникнуть отсутствует ввиду отсутствия каких-либо ключей или чего-то подобного, зачастую проход попросту весьма не очевиден. Да и в целом структура уровней воспринимается как что-то гигантское, хотя это и не совсем так. Про локации ещё можно добавить то, что они примитивно просты, но не однообразны. Сэттинг и атмосфера здесь на высоте, сай-фай и киберпанк в переплет с чем-то готическим. Дух исследования выдержан. Вообще видно, что разработчики очень старались. Из минусов конечно бросается в глаза бюджетность продукта, огрехи графики прячут за "геймдизайнерской темнотой", анимации топорные. Но количество плюсов явно преобладает над количеством минусов.

Has the ability to be a great game and is truly enjoyable combat and atmosphere wise. The problem is that the game is half baked and nowhere near a full release. You can spend hours grinding only to have the super rare and limited resources/weapons you spent time on just disappear from your inventory leaving you high and dry. Watch out if you are a gun/magic user as a disappearing main gun will leave you without a way to defend yourself and you will have to restart. There are obvious technical issues which arent a big deal as those are easy to patch. Missing currency/materials/weapons with poor hitboxes on certain melee gear, piss poor fast travel (also involves disappearing items that makes it so you can in no way 100% the game) etc are why I give this game a 2. If these issues were fixed I would say a solid 8+ but unfortunately the ability to lure players into an unfinished game only to choke their progress really breaks the experience and is more frustrating than rewarding. Here's hoping the devs can fix the issues quickly because this is a true example of a diamond in the extreme, s**t covered, maggot infested rough.

The game has essence of "souls" from the beginning but futuristic, the gameplay reminds me a lot of bloodborne, great enjoyment of this type of game. I would not give it less than an 8 score. Great job
