Hellpress (AppID: 3821230)

Hellpress is a 2D top-down survival adventure set in a decaying world full of danger. Built around exploration, environmental storytelling, and resource management, the game places you in the role of Kairo, a skilled operative known as a Caascal, a guide who lead others through dangerous territories of the New World.

The game doesn't lead you by your hand. No markers on the map. No helpful UI elements. Your only guidance is the world itself, and your own ability to observe and adapt

Key Features:

• Minimalist UI - The screen remains clean and immersive, keeping your attention on the environment and your surroundings.

• True Exploration - The map does not show your position. You'll need to remember landmarks, and rely on notes or your memory.

• Responsive Environment - The world adapts to your actions. Leaving dead bodies behind attracts other predators, filling the area with enemies again. The environment is filled with details forcing you to pay attention.

• Resource Management
  Space is limited. You'll constantly be making decisions about what to take and what to leave behind, healing supplies, ammunition, or upgrade parts.

• Varied Enemy Types and Boss Encounters
  Each enemy behaves differently and presents its own threat. Some are aggressive, others deceptive, and none can be taken lightly.

• Puzzles, tension in every action, difficulty modifiers, structured world, and much more!

Midar’s Guide to the New World – 27 AC

An excerpt from a field manual used across surviving territories

The world once again teeters on the edge of chaos, barely 27 years after The Collapse. Fear and hatred toward the Caascals intensify. Oppressed and hunted, they form a rebel collective in a desperate pursuit of justice, a move that triggers the first war of the New World.

28 AC. The Rebel Collective calls for peace. The Council of Nations responds with strict terms:

• No Caascal may ever hold high office;

• All Caascals must be trained in new state-run schools and use their abilities only for sanctioned purposes;

• Caascals will be publicly registered and monitored. Any Caascal who steps out of line is declared an enemy of the New World and becomes a wanted target;

In return, the Rebels demand:

• All Caascals be recognized as legal citizens of their birth states;

• The Collective be officially acknowledged as The Voice, with full authority over Caascal training and capability assignment;

• Research into Echo abilities continue without interference;

Both sides agree. This fragile peace becomes known as the Resonance Accord.

59 AC. As the annual summit of the Council of Nations nears, A young Caascal named Kairo, near the ruins of Riada, is ready to hit the road once again. Is he prepared enough?
