About this game
Enter the world of Hillbilly Hellfire, a brutal third-person tower defense game where you step into the boots of Skeeter—a grizzled, hillbilly tasked with defending a sacred relic against relentless demon hordes. Armed with a heavenly handgun and an array of divine defenses, Skeeter must survive wave after wave of hellish invaders, determined to destroy the holy relic hidden across the USA.
When an angel appears, Skeeter finds himself wielding supernatural firepower and turrets to push back the forces of hell. Every wave tests your skill and strategy as you recapture souls from fallen enemies to strengthen your arsenal. Upgrade Skeeter’s firepower, restore health and repair, and summon defenses between rounds. The handcrafted open maps have multiple attack vectors and will test your strategy and responsiveness.
Intense Tower Defense Action with Challenging Enemies
Each map is a hardcore survival challenge. Use careful aim and strategic turret placements to protect the relic against escalating waves of skeleton warriors, hellhounds, and mighty demons. The skeletons attack in swarms, hellhounds strike fast, and the towering demons bring devastating power, forcing you to adapt your strategy with every round.
Key Features:
Third-Person Tower Defense: Protect the holy relic across rugged open landscapes filled with chokepoints and strategic opportunities.
Third-Person Shooter: Put your shooter skills to the test, demanding precision, quick reflexes, and tactical awareness. Your success hinges on your ability to adapt, and position yourself strategically. This blend of shooter mechanics and active defense ensures that players are constantly at the center of the fight, making every encounter a test of skill and endurance.
Varied Enemy Types: Scatter waves of skeletons, put down hellhounds, and banish powerful demons, each with unique attack patterns and strengths.
Heavenly Upgrades: Recapture souls to upgrade your heavenly handgun, purchase healing, and deploy different types of divine turrets, from area-effect cannons to high-damage long rand single-shot guns.
Dynamic Challenges and Adaptive Strategy
Face shifting challenges as enemy waves grow stronger and adapt to your defenses. Choose how to spend your resources carefully—whether upgrading your weapons, healing Skeeter, or reinforcing your defenses with turrets. Each decision shapes the tide of battle, making every wave a new test of your survival instincts and tactical planning.
Will Skeeter overcome the forces of the underworld and protect the holy relics, or will hell itself take the mountains? Jump into Hillbilly Hellfire and put your survival skills to the ultimate test.

We’re Locked, Loaded, and Submitted – Hillbilly Hellfire Launching Soon!
The time has come. After months of demon-smashing, turret-tweaking, and meth-lab-refining (in lore, obviously), I'm proud to say that Hillbilly Hellfire has been officially submitted for review on Steam. That’s right—the game is done. Barring any surprises during the review process, we are aiming for a June release. This wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support from all of you— ✅ Everyone who wishlisted the game ✅ Everyone who played the demo ✅ Everyone who dropped feedback, bug reports, and encouragement in along the way You helped shape this game, and I truly hope you have as much fun playing it as I did building it. 🛠️ What’s in the Final Build? Full progression and upgrade system Multiple maps with unique layouts and choke points Endless mode, boss fights, and plenty of explosions A full arsenal of heavenly weapons and turret traps And of course, plenty of ridiculous unlockable cosmetics to bless your inner Skeeter ⏳ What’s Next? We’re just waiting for the green light from Steam. Once approved, I’ll drop a full release date announcement and start rolling out launch trailers, patch notes, and rewards for early supporters.

The Hillbilly Hellfire Demo is Here
Where to start? i soft-launched the demo last week, and the response has been absolutely incredible. The number of Wishlists we’ve received has been overwhelming, and I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who’s taken the time to check out Hillbilly Hellfire. I sincerely hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it—this game has been a wild ride from day one, and seeing people actually playing and having fun means the world to me. Now, I want to take a second to address a question I’ve been seeing a lot: Why is saving disabled? Hillbilly Hellfire is meant to be a short, high-intensity experience, especially in the demo. The goal isn’t to have players binging it for hours—it’s just a taste of the full game, which I’m planning to release in March. If you’re enjoying it that much, that’s awesome (seriously, I love you for that), but there are tons of other great demos out right now—go check them out! Some of my personal favorites so far have been: 🛡️ Stronghold Crusaders by FireFly – Classic castle-building, but better than ever. 🌀 Twisted Tower by Thomas Brush & 3D Realms – A punchy, playful, yet dark homage to Bioshock that oozes ATMOSphere. So go try some demos, have fun, and maybe come back and try another round of Hillbilly Hellfire when its ready for you to blast some more demons. What’s Next? The full release is planned for March—I’ll share more details soon! Keep the feedback coming—I’m already looking at tweaks and improvements. If you haven’t yet, Wishlist the game on Steam—it helps more than you know! Once again, thank you for the amazing support. Now go fire up the demo, lock n’ load, and remember—keep your turrets loaded and your powder dry. 🔥 📅 Trailer is live on youtube! 🎮 Demo is live 👉 Press kits available on Discord 👉 Wishlist on Steam 👉 Follow on Twitch for live weekly Sunday Night updates {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/45308405/b1e369973f3c8dd391c5d217a1dc77efdc753ce2.pngRead full article on Community Announcements (Masta P)Patch NotesOfficial
