What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I want to offer Against Great Darkness to the public to get feedback, fix bugs and address balancing on the way to launch. Going Early Access allows an even greater conversation between development and the community at large.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I estimate 6 months of Early Access to iron out the kinks and make sure that the community steers development to make Against Great Darkness a replay-able roguelite we will all enjoy.”

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

“I plan to have more bosses, enemies, relics, events, secrets, pagans, and ascension levels with the released version.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This version of the game currently has
  • 3 Circles of Hell to explore Lust, Pestilence, and Violence.
  • Over 125+ relics to acquire
  • 6 bosses to battle
  • 9 playable pagans
  • 28 unique events
  • 13 meta progression upgrades
  • Roughly 30 minutes per run.

If you are worried about the level of content and the quality that I am putting forth, there is a prologue available: "Against Great Darkness Prologue" here on steam!”

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

“We plan on gradually raising the price as we ship new content.”

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

“Throughout the development of Against Great Darkness I have been streaming development on twitch and engaging with the community to add new features, suggestions, and fix bugs. I have an active discord where we track these topics, where anyone can speak with me at any point.”

About This Game


Against Great Darkness is the brick-breaker, bullet hell, roguelite. Choose your pagan deity and break free from the clutches of Lucifer. Juggle your disks to defeat your enemies as you progress through the circles of hell and confront relentless demonic bosses.


In each run, acquire powerful relics that will assist you in your escape. Juggle the disks to unleash the power they hold and discover the synergies that will truly set you free.


Choose between acquiring motes of light, purchasing items in the shop, receiving a much-needed heal, or risking it all with unique mystery events that can either reward or hinder your ascent.


You may have gambled on a risky juggle that put you in harm's way and ended your run. Don't fret; the Radiant Shards you collect during your attempts can be used to empower your next run.

FEATURES:
  • 3 circles of hell to explore.
  • Distinct demonic bosses and enemies.
  • Each attempt out of hell is unique.
  • Make choices over unique events to gain powerful relics.
  • 100+ Items offer unique modifiers based on gameplay.
  • Curses that really alter the way you play.
  • Unlock new pagans and items on each run.
  • Increase your chances by spending Radiant Shards gained on every run.
  • Ascend through progressively harder levels of difficulty.
