I was informed this week by another Retro FPS developer that they had seen Hellscreen in PC Gamer magazine.
I spent a couple of days trying to get a copy and eventually, I did!


As a self-publishing, self-funded Indie developer, this is a significant milestone and the article has some excellent praise for Episode 1.


Here are a couple of choice quotes:

"The levels are top notch though⁠—I think it's an achievement that Hellscreen's main gimmick could stand on its own with weaker level design, while its maps and innovative progression could in turn carry a less interesting shooter. Together they're a must-play experience."


"It's a unique setup for a shooter, and I was also surprised at just how far Hellscreen pushes its red and teal alien art style. "


Whilst the game has had mentions in print before, this is the first full page (x2!) spread but hopefully not the last.



Stay tuned for Hellscreen news, including some Episode 2 announcements in the near future!

Hi Folks,

This latest fix should fix the blank screen and resolution issues that a few have been having.
Its been tested by a few folks and is ready to go.
Should it not work, hit me up in the steam discussions and I will work with you to fix it.

*Notes
You may have to clear data for it to work OR at the very least delete these files:
