See, my mistake was expecting a certain amount of wit from the game Hell Pie is, to spoil my final summary, Conker's Bad Fur Day without the wit. So I guess it really wasn't a pun, just a frank description it's a game about a pie from Hell. We're in the realms of Conker's Bad Fur Day, that outwardly discourages being played by innocent kiddywinks 'cos it's full of wee-wees and poo-poos, and as always, this is a slim and slightly pathetic facade, 'cos it's only kiddywinks that are remotely amused by such things, and actual adults, who watch documentaries about the Cuban Missile Crisis and shit, find it more tiresome than shocking it's like when the toddler looks over to make sure you're watching before they dump an entire box of garlic powder onto the cat.Īnd if you're anything like me, you're wondering even now if the title is supposed to be a pun on "hell to pay", perhaps? Or "eel pie"? Or is "hell pie" some new cruel euphemism for the vagina of someone with bipolar disorder? Anyway, the framing premise is, you are a demon in Hell, and you are tasked with gathering all the ingredients for Satan's special birthday pie. Hell Pie gleefully self-identifies as an obscene platformer on the Steam page, and you pretty much know what to expect from anything that calls itself obscene. So why hasn't it come up in general discourse? And then I played it for a bit and thought, "Oh, you know what it might be? It might be because it's completely fucking disgusting, and no one's talking about it for the same reason people don't sit at the bar of a tapas restaurant, talking about how their menstrual flow has been unusually gelatinous this month." No, it's a 3D collectathon platformer in your classic N64-era Banjo-Kazooie sort of mold, with the kind of visual variety and interesting "easy to learn, hard to master" platforming mechanics that requires actual fucking effort to make, and it hits all the right notes that made A Hat in Time stand out so well. I'd heard nothing about it before it popped up on Steam last week and very little subsequent discussion in the wider realms, and I wondered why that should be it's not the sort of thing that usually falls into the background noise of Steam indie releases, in that it's not a survival crafter, an RPG Maker game, or a visual novel about being an anthropomorphic vixen with a penis who's also Hitler. I usually focus on games with a bit of buzz around them, but sometimes, like a room believed to contain an angry wasp, it's the lack of a buzz that can make me slightly more attentive, as was the case with this week's subject, Hell Pie.
