Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The game is designed as an episodic narrative adventure, unfolding one chapter at a time. Early Access allows players to start the journey early while giving me time to build and refine the next chapters with real feedback. I believe this is the best approach to prepare the product for release to the gaming community in a timely manner, while minimizing the risk of the content becoming outdated or irrelevant.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I estimate the game to remain in Early Access for approximately 3 years, depending on development pace and player feedback. The plan is to release additional chapters at regular intervals during this period. The game will exit Early Access when all chapters are live and the full story is told.”

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

“I plan to expand the story and game world with each update, but aim to have the Early Access version fully playable and stable with each release.

The current plan is for the full version to include:

- The complete narrative, including all chapters
- Additional content, locations, and gameplay systems introduced over time
- Final polish, quality-of-life improvements, and performance tweaks”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access release includes:

- Chapter 1, offering roughly 1 hour of gameplay
- The core game loop: exploration, dialogue, combat system and environmental interaction

This release is content-complete for Chapter 1, and will be updated if needed based on feedback or bug reports.

Every effort is made to test thoroughly, but occasional bugs may slip through. Please report any issues via the Steam Discussions or bug reporting form. Your help is appreciated!”

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

“I plan to gradually raise the price as new chapters are added. Players who join early will receive all future content updates at no additional cost.”

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

“Community feedback will directly shape future chapters.

Players can submit feedback, ideas, and bug reports through:

- Steam Discussions
- Polls and feature wishlists between chapter releases

I’m building this story alongside the players, and community input is a key part of that process.

I'm actively listening to player feedback, but not all suggestions can be implemented. I prioritize those that align with the game’s vision and what’s technically achievable as a solo developer.”

About This Game

Embark on a mysterious journey through a fractured realm where eras clash and realities intertwine. The Infernalist tests the boundaries between realities combining fantasy and science fiction elements in a unique and captivating way.

The Infernalist is a compelling point-and-click adventure where you dive into a rich narrative filled with exploration, puzzles, and turn-based combat, all set against the backdrop of a visually stunning environment.

You are Lyra Quasar, an enigmatic wanderer with fragments of forgotten memories. Awakened in a world where ancient myths intertwine with advanced technology, you must uncover your true self while navigating a realm on the brink of collapse. Your journey leads you to the enigmatic figure known as the Infernalist, whose existence is tied to the echoes of your past. Will you find the truth about yourself before chaos consumes everything?

  • Uncover memory fragments, pieces of Lyra’s past, granting you powerful abilities essential for your journey.

  • Protect this already tumbling world from malevolent entities, including hooded skeletons desecrating the ruins of once-thriving druidic civilizations and ancient godlike beings whose incomprehensible power threatens to unravel reality itself.

  • Engage with a host of characters, each offering unique abilities and insights, as you collaborate to progress through the game. Use your restored knowledge and the expertise of your allies to unlock new items and gear that aid your journey. Together, you’ll craft powerful artifacts, solve intricate puzzles, and overcome obstacles using a blend of strategy and creativity.

Immerse yourself in the shattered realm of The Infernalist, where the fabric of reality is torn asunder.

  • Witness the fusion of ancient forests and futuristic technology, as you traverse the realm.

  • Unravel intricate puzzles hidden within the corrupted landscape: from deciphering ancient runes etched into crumbling stone to manipulating unstable magical phenomena that twist reality itself.

  • Discover fragments of your past scattered across the world, with interactive objects and environmental details serving as a clue to unlocking your forgotten memories and the mysteries of your existence.

Gather a group of companions, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, to aid you in your journey. Learn new abilities and master them as you progress through the game, unlocking new possibilities for combat and exploration.

  • Assemble a team of unique allies, each with their own backstory, motivations, and skills.

  • Master powerful abilities that blend elemental forces, technological marvels, and ancient magic, allowing you to overcome challenges as you progress through the game.

  • Embark on an immersive exploration of a mysterious world, uncovering hidden secrets and piecing together the fragmented memories of your past while navigating its intricate lore and dangers.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

AI tools were used during development to support creative tasks. The game’s cover image was generated using Grok and later manually edited and masked. Voiceovers were created using ElevenLabs. ChatGPT and Grok were used to help brainstorm narrative and dialogue ideas, but all final writing and design decisions were made by the developer.

No AI systems are present during gameplay, and players do not interact with or influence any generative AI. All AI-generated content was reviewed and curated before being included in the game or its marketing materials.
