Nails my favorite thing about roguelikes: you can feel OP as f**k, even truly be OP as f**k, and you will die within two turns if you aren't treating every moment like it could be your last. If you have ever felt bump combat in a roguelike isn't interesting enough, you need to buy this game.

True to its Roguelike roots, Jupiter Hell delivers a turn-based dungeon-crawling RPG experience with the ever-daunting challenge of permadeath. At first glance, this game seemed a bit shallow to me. But the more I gave it a chance, and the more I met my untimely demise, the more its strategic depth began to take precedence. Turning off the heavy metal soundtrack and reducing the frequency of the Player Character’s voice lines made a surprising difference. It allowed me to focus on the tactical gameplay, often demanding long pauses between turns to carefully weigh my options and decide on the best course of action. Also worth mentioning, there’s a strong emphasis on inventory management. Not only is this game retro themed, but information about this game is as obscure as the game itself, which evokes a pre-internet nostalgia where discovery was part of the journey. Unless you’re willing to scour an ASCII guide, you’ll likely stumble upon new secrets purely by accident, even after dozens of hours of gameplay... Wait, you can shoot doors?! In typical Roguelike fashion, Jupiter Hell ’s levels are procedurally generated, keeping each run fresh with plenty of new weapons and armor to find to make up for the badass set you lost in your previous run. Add to that 3 distinct character classes, multiple difficulty levels, and a variety of game modes & challenges, you can be assured there's plenty of replay value here warranting several returns to this gem of a game for years to come!

Very good game, but not for me. I loved the music and the game play mechanics. But it made me realise I prefer rougelites over rougelikes. I want to actually UNLOCK stuff as I progress. New classes, new guns that may drop, SOMETHING. Higher difficulties and trying new builds is not enough incentive for me personally to replay this style of game because I'm just going to play the build I know works. Why waste my time with anything else? So, while I refunded it, it's not the game's fault whatsoever. It's very good. You absolutely should buy it. It's just not to my taste. I'm going to stick with rougelites, like Binding of Isaac, Our Darker Purpose, or Dead Cells.

One of the best and most balanced traditional roguelikes in existence. Systems are in depth enough to be interesting without being cumbersome. Challenging without being unbalanced. Particularly nice as it's the only traditional roguelike I've ever played with well made and easy to use controller controls. A+++ would buy again.

Jupiter Hell is great, thinky fun, yet still retains its brutal roots in DOOM theme. There's lots of great tactical decision making about what class, upgrades, and guns you choose depending on your playstyle and objectives for a run. I always keep coming back for more to experiment with and there's always something new to experience here. The graphics are amazing for a traditional roguelike and you can really tell the amount of optimization and coding effort that went into the game. JH sets the standard for other traditional roguelikes to follow from an artistic standpoint and it stands heads and shoulders above the rest in its part of the rogue-game genre.
