Hellpoint

The player takes on the role of a nameless humanoid stranded on derelict space station Irid Novo, and must battle vicious creatures in order to solve the mystery behind the events that happened there. Irid Novo orbits a massive black hole; the station's position in relation to the black hole affects the strength of enemies. The game relies heavily on exploration, offering a number of secrets to discover. They may be hidden behind secret doors or in seemingly inaccessible places that can be reached by utilizing the jump mechanic. Hellpoint has been dubbed a "Soulslike" game, due to similarities in the gameplay mechanics to From Software games such as Dark Souls and Bloodborne. In 2017, Cradle Games initiated a Kickstarter campaign to fund the development of their project. With the initial goal of CA$50,000, they managed to gather CA$64,500 over a span of two years. The events of this chapter take place half a century after the events of the main game.
