Happy New Year! I hope it will be better in every way imaginable than the last one!
Quick update on the Hellpower:
Still, there is some work to do, both in writing and illustrations,
We've decided to take a slightly different approach to layouts - they'll be less "art punk" and more streamlined. They'll be easier to read than some of the "Borgs." Think more Pirate Borg, less Mork Borg.
Having said that, we will maintain a brutal atmosphere in every aspect - writing, rules, art, and the overall ambiance. I mean, look at Overman and at the Cannibal. You don't want to cross paths with them! (Spoiler alert: you will).
Overman
The Cannibal
We are trying to work as fast as we can, but we still need some more time to get every element right. So we are not going to commit to any specific release date other than some time in Q1 for the digital version. Hope that's ok - we are certain that Hellpower will be worth the wait.
Thank you all so much for your pledges, comments, shares, and likes. Even if you only lurk here - thanks for taking interest! We are making this thing and it wouldn't be possible without you!
So, what's next?
We are going to take a day to celebrate and then we get back to work! Plenty of art to do, and a starter to prepare for playtesting!
Interested in testing this game with your players? Join our Discord server to be the first to sign up!
While we didn't hit all the stretch goals, I'll have some good news to share - we will have some additional contributors. One of them will be Sacha Lightfoot, writer and lead designer of Ronin, and an upcoming Berserk (live on Kickstarter)! And that's not all, but let me leave some other names for the future updates.
Our little poll is now resolved. We are making an X-Men inspired team for Hellpower. Hell yeah!
Release:
We aim to release the digital version of the book in November/December, closely followed by the printed book that we will send out directly from Poland. It'll be faster and much more cost efficient for everyone, so the total cost of shipping should be between 6-10 EUR/USD.
For those who couldn't pledge during the campaign, we will open a pre-order store in November (or maybe even earlier).
Should you have any question or comment, feel free to ask them here, over on Discord, or directly at [email protected]
Have an amazing day, thank you so much for your support, Paweł
We've just unlocked another stretch goal and are on our way to get the next one - inviting Phil Jensen, a creator of Trapped Within and upcoming NECROVENGE to illustrate a page or two for our book! But that's not all!

It's the last 48h or so, so please - pledge now, and if you already did, spread the word!
We still have some amazing Stretch Goals to unlock (like ENNIE award winning guests, Tommy Suzenauer and Johan Nohr!) and there are still some things I'd like to share. Like this sneak peak for something I'll reveal tomorrow!
---
Please remember that we are running a poll to determine which famous superhero group would you like to see in a twisted, "hellpowered" version.
The one with the most votes will be deconstructed, dragged through literal hell, adjusted for the setting, parodied and put into the game!
Currently, X-Men are winning, with Teen Titans in a close second place!
Thanks everyone, have an amazing day/night ahead! All the best, Paweł from Heltung Storytelling
