A World Gone Mad
The world is lost. Descending into madness. However, you are the last one clinging to sanity. Byte Barrel’s retro FPS game set within the H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos, Forgive Me Father, has left Steam Early Access today. Prepare yourself as you descend into a world stylized with a retro sheen.Â
Forgive me Father introduces players to a choice of two characters. One, a journalist, or the other, a priest. Both battling Lovecraftian horrors as they look for answers in a retro FPS world that has descended into madness. As players move through the world, killing monsters and learning secrets, they will be able to invest in new abilities and weapons. With over 27 levels, full skill trees for both characters, and 8 weapons with different upgrades, there is a lot of ways to play.Â
Furthermore the game provides full voice acting for both characters as well as animated story cutscenes. In addition the retro atmosphere and art style all add to a growing sense of dread that seeps into the game world. Players can experience the atmosphere in the new launch trailer for the game. The trailer provides some backstory but importantly also introduces players to the world of Forgive Me Father.Â
Forgive Me Father is available today on Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store. Currently the game costs $19.99 with a 15% launch discount. So, are you ready to descend into madness and face the Lovecraftian horror of Forgive Me Father? Ready yourself. Keep your head. And brave madness.Â
