The Beta is here! If you’re a Beta backer or above you should by now have received an e-mail from us with the Beta 0.3.0 Steam Key - check your spam folder! If you can’t find it, please get in touch with us.



The game is still a deep work in progress, but has come a very long way from the early pre-Alpha stages, and has been gradually been improving with input and suggestions from the Inner Circle and Alpha communities. We’re thrilled to open this up now to many more fans and to get more feedback as Jupiter Hell moves into the next stage of development!



The beta is working on both Windows and Linux. OSX users, please be a little patient with us. From now on all updates to the game will be via Steam.





Jupiter Hell on Steam

The Steam page for Jupiter Hell is now live. It’s a big help for us if you wishlist it, so please do so even if you haven’t got access to the game yet!





Road to early access



Whilst the core of the game is in place there is still a lot more content to get loaded in. As we move towards open release on Early Access our development focus is now switching towards adding in layers and layers of content. That means more of the following:



Player classes with unique traits and abilities



Challenge modes, online leaderboards, player achievements, and extra difficulty levels

A longer game with two more major locations

Modular weapons and armor, more weapons, more items

More enemies, bosses and enemy variety

Plot details, quests, cutscenes

Music, sound, voice acting

UI configuration, mouse and controller support

And of course many other things secret or yet to be conceived! Community support is vital at this stage to let us know what works, what doesn’t, and feed in new ideas and suggestions. Make sure to try the beta out and give feedback via the community channels. Let’s plays and other recordings of the game are very welcome - please send us a link to anything you publish as we love to see them!
