Hell of An Office ’s “Work from Hell” Update Turns Up the Heat with New Levels and Mechanics

Joystick Ventures | Hell of an Office, the satanic speedrunning first-person platformer from developer 43 Studios and publisher Joystick Ventures, enters the 7th level of the inferno with the Work from Hell (WFH) update on Steam Early Access for PC today.

This brand-new chapter features 10 scorching levels in a homey hellscape.

Sprint for survival through Hell 07, also known as the Remote Work Void. Test out a fresh tool amidst the new surroundings and collect two new stapler skins along the way!
 

Join the rest of HellO Corporation’s employees, generously allowed to work from their homes…as long as they agree to a few changes from the Department of Well Being!
 

Watch as an infernal portal opens to transform everyone’s residences into their own personal Hell – for productivity’s sake, of course.

Rest is simply for dreamers with the new Bouncing Pillows mechanic in the Remote Work Void. Jump on these cushions like trampolines to propel to a marked landing spot.
 

Master the skill of Bouncing Pillows to avoid drowning in the boiling coffee lake beneath. Use cushions and home furniture floating down the brown sludge to propel to victory!

Hop through 10 fiery levels, dashing into bouncing pillows to intuitively change trajectories, combining the action with necktie hooks and other abilities to snag that Employee of the Month title.
 

Enjoy endless replayability within every white-knuckled level. Take things slow for an hour or two as controls are mastered, or spend 300 hours zooming through each stage on a mission to rank #1 at the top of the leaderboards. No stage is ever completely mastered – only new fastest records to beat.
 

Once the top of the ranks have been climbed, defeat previous quickest lap times to consistently set the standard for what speed should look like. Unlock stapler skins, create innovative, custom routes to maximize pace in each stage, and maybe discover a secret promotion or fabled Diamond Rank time along the way.

Hell of an Office is available now in Steam Early Access on PC today for $14.99 USD with English language support.
