Leaving Early Access: Jun 23, 2026

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“For Hell Runner to be the best game it can be, we need to build it together with the community. Early Access is the perfect way for us to continue adding new content while making sure we are going in the right direction.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect it to be less than a year, including all the content outlined in the roadmap which can be seen below and more!”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to have 72 levels and 8 chapters to play for single player content plus custom map editor to play custom maps. Rather than level selection panel we plan to have a hub level that act like room for player where they can not only go to levels to play also a place where you can customize. We plan to character itself also become customizable for you and others to see. We plan to to add multiplayer only maps for racing again either random people or with your friends.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“2 out of 8 chapter is finished with 18 our of 72 level to play that can keep you entertained at least few hours. While waiting next chapter you can keep honing your skills to get better score.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, in fact each chapter added during Early Access will increase the price of the game so earlier you get it better for your wallet.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Being in close communication with the community is a core development pillar for us. We are always online on Discord, always checking the Steam forums and will keep our eyes on youtube to see what kind of gameplay people having. So come and join us on Discord we'd love to have a chat! We need your feedbacks to make sure our game can become best version of it for you.”
