Heldritch Rush

*Please note that this game is still in development, so you may come across bugs that prevent a level from being completed. If this is the case, please pause the game and hit retry. Lightning doesn't strike the same place twice does it?*

If the game crashes, freezes, or controls disable themselves, please hit ALT + F4 to shut the game down and reload the game.

You will also need an Xbox controller. You are welcome to try other equipment like logitech but this is untested and may not function!
