HELLIST is a roguelike indie game based in Heaven and Hell.
Play as Aka, a 7 year old girl lost in Hell suffering from severe amnesia - remembering nothing but her name. Her soul was born with an unknown fearsome potential, and hence, upon her death, some unknown being split her soul (and memories) into 8 souls.
Her main soul, although now pure without sin, is very weak. The 7 lost souls, represents the 7 sins - in normal cases, every human soul has these 7 sins.
She has to collect and find/meet her other 7 souls that are scattered in Hell, before she can face the devil, Lucifer. As she tries to find these souls, she slowly finds clues of her past and bit by bit, recovers her memories.
However, it is not all as it seems - there are rumors surrounding creation and Heaven. Is Lucifer really to blame? What sin did she commit that made her deserve to go to Hell? The future of the universe is in her hands.
When the game is finished (in a few years time), it intends to contain a rogue-like story with various endings, theme of overcoming mental issues, self improvement and dark themes. For now, feel free to playtest the game and provide feedback by clicking on the "Request Access" button!
