Can you give me a non-audio tour of Death Inc.?
Sure! Death Inc. is the Underworld’s leading the mega corporation in charge of processing souls into the afterlife. As a sprawling corporate empire, Death Inc. has many morbidly-themed departments — like the Industrial Pollution Department, which oozes with charm, and the Physical Illness Department that’ll take your breath away.
Each department is run by a powerful executive, known as a “Sorrow”, but unfortunately for you, they’ve been running rampant — leaving you with more work to do, so you’ll have to overcome their deadly abilities and show them who’s boss.

What’s after the tour?
On March 1, we’ll drop the third and final Have a Nice Death “Life in the Afterlife” series trailer, “Tools of the Trade”, that’ll share all the tools of mass destruction (or as we like to say “death-struction”) you can have in your arsenal!
Have a Nice Death is a hand-drawn 2D Action Rogue-Lite where you play as Death, Founder and CEO of Death Incorporated—a sprawling corporate empire that processes souls for the afterlife—who currently finds himself teetering on the edge of burnout.
His top executives, the Sorrows, have been running rampant on Earth’s surface, blatantly ignoring company protocols, leaving him buried in an underworld-sized mountain of paperwork. Now, in order to regain control of his company and soul-ply chain, as well as secure a much-needed vacation, he will need to traverse the various departments of Death Incorporated and remind his unruly subordinates who’s boss.
Welcome to Death Incorporated

Reap What You Sow – Sharpen your skills (and scythe) through fast-paced hack n’ slash combat, utilizing over 30 unique weapons and spells you can find and upgrade to create devastating combinations.

When Life Gives You Curses – Taking more power for yourself is a controversial move in Death Incorporated’s company culture.
