I don't know if this has been posted/mentioned before; I searched but couldn't find anything.

From Techland, the people who gave us Dead Island, comes a new dark fantasy hack 'n slash game currently called Project Hell. Apparently the game started out as a weapon mod for Dead Island but the company liked it so much that they created a team for it and it is now going to be a full fledged game.

The developers update their blog pretty regularly with new concept art, screenshots, etc. You can check it out at www.sharpenyouraxes.com

Here is the first glimpse of (pre-alpha) gameplay:


and here is a video showing some of the breakable object physics that they want to put in the game:

(Can only include one video per post so you're going to have to click it :p)

I for one am really excited about this. I loved the first person melee combat in Dead Island and I think moving that over to a dark fantasy medieval setting will turn out to be pretty damn awesome. At the moment it seems like they are focusing on a PC version only, but they did say that console versions are possible depending on how the game is received.

Ooh lovely. First person Diablo but without the Unicorns and Fairies. I'll take one please, although they won't be asking for our money on Kickstarter.

The developers mentioned the first Quake as part of the inspiration for this game. Add the atmosphere of that classic to Dead Island's gameplay and place the mixture in a medieval setting. Yummy. Now if only there were a way to add the odours of the period.

With their next Techland team meeting on Friday, they should seriously consider coming up with a final title for this game. "Project Hell" won't spawn millions and millions of pre-orders.
 
Hellraid <---Pure awesomeness!!


We're calling Hellraid a first-person co-op slasher. We invented this genre to capture the idea behind our game, which blends elements of classic hack & slash titles with a more advanced combat system based on timing and precision, RPG's, shooters and multiplayer games into one unique experience seen in very immersive, first-person perspective.

So a mix between a FPS and Diablo II :D :D

Must have!!
 
Werent they calling Hellgate London the same thing, that turned out to be quite a flop. Hope this on does better
 
Haven't posted anything about this game for a while now. Game seems to be shaping up nicely:

There is another video that shows how players can adjust the FoV, but I can't post it since one can only add 2 youtube videos...


This game is gonna be awesome!
 
Looks really cool. Reminds me of Chivalry but single player, which would be awesome. Definitely looking forward to this.

I fail to understand why there is so little interest in this game on the forum. :confused:

Didn't anyone watch that gameplay I posted? The game looks amazing. There is a survey somwhere on the forum asking what older games most need a remake with most votes going to Hexen/Heretic. That is basically what this game this.

Maybe it's the title of the thread?

Hard to tell for me how cool its going to be, the levels and monsters look cool. But i think the combat could feel clunky.
