Gameplay[edit]
In Hellpoint, the gameplay revolves mainly around combat. The player has both light and strong attacks in their arsenal, as well as an evade mechanic. The game progress can be saved at breaches which do not resurrect foes as they respawn after a certain amount of time. Up to two healing injections can be stored. The healing gauge is refilled by dealing damage to monsters. The game relies heavily on exploration, offering a number of secrets to discover. They may be hidden behind secret doors or in seemingly inaccessible places that can be reached by utilizing the jump mechanic.[4][5][6]
Hellpoint has been dubbed a 'Soulslike' game, due to similarities in the gameplay mechanics to From Software games such as Dark Souls and Bloodborne.[2]
