About this game

Councillor, we have a big problem. The Bion commandos have just destroyed our fighter pilot training school. ALL of our fighter pilots have perished, along with most of our fighters. You, as a retired pilot, are our ONLY remaining pilot. Fortunately, Hellbender, our experimental assault craft, has survived. Unfortunately, that Bion attack is likely only the first wave. You must take the craft and destroy the Bion attack. Good luck to us all.

Hellbender is a 3D vehicle shooter that is a sequel to Fury³ and a descendant of Terminal Velocity. The player pilots this vehicle through a first or third-person view, going in any direction and shooting almost anything. Fly above the clouds to fight, fly near the ground to attack, and sometimes, dive into the tunnels to search and destroy. The player will be challenged by ground defenses, fighters, missile launchers, and much more -- even a few puzzles to solve, figuring out which switches open what. There are power-ups everywhere, but they have to be looked for. With ten different weapons to choose from, there are plenty of ways to deal out destruction! Even multiplayer is supported.
