Hedon Bloodrite merges Hedon I and II into an entirely hand crafted 20+ hours singleplayer experience inspired by not only the best retro FPS games of the 90s , but also classic RPGs , Immersive Sims and Adventure Games . Hedon mixes high octane action with the exploration of a world rich in atmosphere, lore and secrets . ➣ An exotic world of lore and secrets Embark on an adventure across an underground world where ancient and medieval civilizations meet with uncanny crystal-powered technologies. ➣ A dark, warm, eerie atmosphere Immerse yourself in the whistling of cave drafts and the humming of the mossy crystals as you ponder your next move. ➣ Brutal, gory, fast-paced combat Shatter your foes with a lined-up axe throw, lob acid at them from your Potion Launcher or ignite them with the flamethrower included into your goblin-made Fragfire Gun. ➣ Complex, non-linear, handmade levels Sharpen your wits and your sense of exploration - there won't be many arrows to point you through the mysteries of the Underworld, so putting clues together and using your resources wisely are the key to success. ➣ A touch of RPG (Bloodrite-only) Travel between RPG-style level clusters, interact with a variety of characters, complete secondary and hidden quests, and watch some of your deeds and approaches have an impact on the surrounding world. ➣ Good company (Bloodrite-mostly) Lead the orc daughters of the Iron Division to victory. They will prove their worth when fighting alongside you against the armies of chaos. ➣ Six difficulty levels Changing not only the damage taken or how many progression clues you get but also the individual monster and item placement of each map. And don't forget the Bearzerk difficulty that completely shifts the gameplay by swapping your regular arsenal with unique melee weapons. ➣ A multi-genre soundtrack Going from tense to serene ambient, with occasional kicks of heavy metal. All spiced up with a few Alexander Brandon tracks that never made it in the final releases of Unreal and Deus Ex! ➣ Fully moddable You can mod and make maps for Hedon just as easily as you can for Doom. ➣ DRM free You buy it, you own it. Photosensitivity warning: This video game contains scenes with flashing and flickering lights that may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. 

Press reviews: “And then Hedon 2 (Bloodrite) comes along and it's a massive fantasy story with a fleshed out world [...] and I think I just played something - using this word unironically and without memetic connotations - epic.” Civvie 11 “This second episode (Bloodrite) can be a real crushing experience. But I think a testament to how good the whole thing is was that I just didn't want to stop playing.” GmanLives
