TLDR,

The only reason for hyperinflation is increased money supply by many magnitudes. Those newly printed money are distributed to a few government officers that owns the oil supply, lots of people in the country does not get more reward for produce anything, thus the supply of tangible products and services are still very limited, then the price of everything just go up

The strange thing is that once price go up, there is usually a higher motive to drive more production, but if it goes up too fast, there is no motive of production, hoarding assets instead become the first choice
