Hi all,
First post, and, first game! I’ve been building a browser FPS MMORPG on Babylon for a while now and it’s finally in a state where other people can shoot things in it, so here it is.
Play the alpha: https://hellsurface.com - desktop, WebGL2, no install and no account needed to start. Its very much a work in progress, with no properly working multiplayer just yet.
What it is
Earth, 2050. The AI boom did what it promised - limitless energy, medicine, lifespans past a century - and none of the scare stories became anything more.
Something worse happened - the exponential progress of AI put us on the intergalactic map, and the attention was not friendly. AI guided us through the defence, allowing us to adapt quicker than any alien race had expected. Except one, a hellish species who were able to open portals and invade from within. The surface is lost, no longer safe. Only the high ground remains untainted.
You’re not a soldier. You’re a mercenary paid per kill, helidropped onto high altitude - the roof of a skyscraper under a red sky, the top of a mountain - and you go down. Ground level is Hell. Nothing is issued to you: every weapon and every plate of armour is something you bought with what you earned on the last descent. The deeper you go the worse it gets and the better it pays.
Gameplay - first person shooter
Deploy to a high-point, shoot monsters, get paid. Buy weapons, armour, shields, equipment, upgrade yourself.
Character creation featuring 39 genetic traits (choose 3), upgradeable items (duplicate + a kit with a chance to blow the lot, branches for weapons), stealth and ambush system.
Solo bosses (that after the first kill respawn twice as strong - aimed at cooperative play)
All feedback welcome! Remember its a work in progress, there are many bugs (many of them in progress!!). Join the discord if you are interested: HellSurface - you might well be the first person ![]()
