Our take on Hell of an Office
The defining mechanic is a stapler used as a movement tool: rocket jumps and dashes carry the player through an office while lava closes in from below.
What is Hell of an Office?
Hell of an Office is a first-person precision platformer set in an infernal office after the player signs a contract with the Devil.
A stapler provides rocket jumps and dashes for crossing hazardous spaces, while other sections use necktie hooks, portals, and office dangers. Lava continually rises as the player tries to reach each end portal. The game includes many levels arranged across 10 layers of Hell, with each layer introducing its own mechanics. A level editor supports custom stage creation, and the Workshop lets players upload and play community-made levels. Online leaderboards compare results in global rankings, with friends, and across the game's stages. Diamond ranks unlock visual styles for the stapler, while achievements and secrets add further objectives.
