However equipment is broken down even further, to tailor your own unique playing style. Play as an aggressive shotgun toting hunter with explosives, a dexterous uzi wielding hunter using traps to slow enemies to your advantage, or countless other combinations as you desire.

Once you have deciphered which terrifying species you are up against, it’s time to prepare. Choose the right equipment for the right enemy. For example explosive bullets are deadly against gargoyles but utterly useless against poltergeists. Flashbang grenades are great for creating openings against vampires but have no effect against the blind wraiths, and so forth.

You will need some time to prepare and put your plan into action. This is where the jammer comes into play. This high tech electro-magnetic pulsating device confuses and deters supernatural creatures, essentially giving you a window of opportunity. But take heed not to use it during investigation, as the electro-magnetic waves will disrupt your investigative equipment.

The core of every hunt is a good trap setup. At your disposal are a myriad of traps each useful for different situations. For example incendiary traps are good against liquid based enemies (such as the kelpie), while explosives are useful against corporeal enemies like the Nosferatu.

Each trap can also be combined with different triggers. You could plant a tripwire attached to an explosive at the foot of a staircase, proximity trigger to an EMP mine for unpredictable spectral enemies, pressure plate beartrap for spacious quarters against hulking werewolves, and many other combinations you will discover during hunts.

Once you’re ready to engage the enemy, there is a multitude of different ways you can approach it. Be it aggressive guns blazing, a sneaky trap laying ninja, or anything in between, the choice is entirely yours.

Hellhunter’s unique enemies all have their own strengths and weaknesses. For example you might come face to face with the kelpie, a ghastly water steed manipulating liquid to its advantage. And can only be destroyed by incendiary means. On the contrary you might encounter the shadow, a cunning enemy using the cover of darkness to ambush its prey, but is highly vulnerable to ultraviolet ammunition.

What takes Hellhunter to the next level is its entirely dynamic and destructible environments. This adds an element of realism to the game as well as making every mission a unique experience. While you battle and total destructions tears apart the level, your vantage points will change and you will have to rethink your strategy.

In Hellhunter you start out as an amateur hunter with nothing but a flickering torch, a rusty gun and a hell of a lot of guts. As you complete cases you will slowly transform into an elite Hellhunter with character progression and massive amounts of weapons, ammo, armour, gadgets, baits, traps and more to customize your character to your hearts content.

As a bounty hunter you will need to complete jobs to pay the bills and keep your equipment up to date, but beyond that, you are hunting supernatural creatures to find the missing pieces to your past. You will battle through countless missions, each requiring their own approach for optimal efficiency and success. As you progress further and further through the missions, you will come that little bit closer to uncovering the ultimate terror that haunts your past!

Each and every time you take on a mission, it will consist of an entirely different and unique hunting ground. Hellhunter features a special logical generation system. For example each house has a kitchen and a living room, and knowing this logic allows you to cross reference with relevant clues to add a layer of depth to the investigation.

We aimed for a grounded dark setting, with strong dominance of green and turquoise hues to enforce the supernatural mystery themes. Hellhunter also builds on its contrast between the raw 90s modern setting and the more gothic environments in which the hauntings take place, and that we hope you’ll enjoy exploring!

Currently all digital copies will be delivered via a Steam Key, where you will need a free Steam Account to play the game. If in the future the game is distributed through other channels, backers will of course have the option to choose their prefered gaming platform.

We are a small two person team who have been working on Hellhunter for one year now. While we have been funding development up to this point from our own pockets and are coming to Kickstarter to help make this game a reality!

Although a large portion of the core game mechanics are already complete, there is still a long way to go in terms of content, design and polish. We’re looking to hire an environment artist and story writer to help get the game into your hands sooner. The funds from this campaign will help push us past the finish line and allow us to deliver a game you want to play!

With your support, we can make our vision of the game a reality and reach some of the exciting stretch goals that we have planned! We would also love to hear from you and collaborate with backers to create the ultimate gaming experience!
