    Clock In or Die Trying: ‘Hellbound Inc.’ Brings Corporate Chaos to Steam on August 11

    If you thought your daily 9-to-5 was soul-crushing, wait until you see what Satan has planned for the afterlife.

    Independent game studios Templo and Rewilder have officially announced their debut collaborative title: Hellbound Inc., a darkly comedic rage-platformer set in a nightmarish corporate fulfilment centre. The game is scheduled to launch on Steam on August 11, 2026, promising a fast-paced blend of precision platforming, devious delivery puzzles, and workplace satire.

    Welcome to the Afterlife: You’re Undead, But You’re Still Not Off the Clock

    In Hellbound Inc., players step into the worn shoes of an undead courier trapped in a massive logistics fulfilment centre recently acquired by Satan himself. The objective? Deliver cursed packages across treacherous warehouse zones, dodge fire-spewing conveyor belts, outsmart toxic HR policies, and ensure every package meets its impossible delivery quota.

    Loose controls won’t save you here—missing a deadline in the underworld means eternal damnation. Again.

    Key Features to Expect:

    • 8 Circles of Corporate Hell: Loosely inspired by Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy, travel through eight distinct corporate departments—from the red tape of HR to the bottomless pit of Accounting.
    • Brutal Precision Platforming: Master 47 handcrafted levels (6 orientation tutorials and 41 escalating puzzle-platforming rooms) where pixel-perfect timing and package carrying are required.
    • Instant Respawns: Death is an everyday occurrence when you’re already dead. Instant respawns keep the game flowing as players learn, retry, and conquer complex delivery routes.
    • The Corporate Audit: Find hidden collectables tucked away in the most lethal corners of the facility.
    • A Hellish Original Soundtrack: High-energy themes tailored to keep you marching through the flames across every department.

    A Powerhouse Creative Team

    While Hellbound Inc. marks the first release for Templo and Rewilder as a collective, the team behind it is far from green. The international collaboration brings together seasoned industry veterans spanning game design, animation, and film:

    • Pradip Romay (Studio Lead): Cannes Gold Lion winner leading the creative vision.
    • Antonio “Fayer” Uribe: Industry veteran known for titles like Arco and Pancito Merge.
    • Abe Morales: Former Game Director at HyperBeard and creator behind Frogue and Doki Duck Farm.

    “I’m excited for players to discover that moment when frustration turns into mastery,” shared Studio Lead Pradip Romay. “The first time you overcome an obstacle that seemed impossible is incredibly satisfying, and that’s really the emotional core of the game.”
