[May 26th, 2025] – Get ready to drink, shoot, and screw your way through heartbreak: NetherWorld, the depraved pixel art action-adventure from Hungry Pixel, will launch its demo on PC during Steam Next Fest starting May 27th — with the Nintendo Switch demo launching on June 2nd. A darkly hilarious narrative experience set in a grotesque pixelated world, NetherWorld follows Medoo—a sentient jellyfish nursing a broken heart—as he plunges headfirst into a surreal downward spiral of alcohol, lust, violence, and other life-affirming vices.
Get a taste of the madness in the NetherWorld demo, available for a limited time during Steam Next Fest. Face insane boss fights, navigate roguelike dungeons as a bionic tick named Joe, and try your luck in drunken minigames that may or may not involve love-making, bullets, or both. What begins with a failed marriage becomes a wild ride across a bizarre underworld populated by strung out mages, mob bosses, perverted elders, sociopathic children, and entrepreneur prostitutes.
Wishlist NetherWorld on Steam and Nintendo Switch now to follow Medoo’s deranged odyssey through heartbreak and horror. Make sure to play the PC demo during Steam Next Fest, along with the Nintendo Switch demo on June 2nd. Join the growing community of degenerates and jellyfish on Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook for future updates.
