Forgive me Father is an old-school FPS. The game was developed by Byte Barrel, an independent Polish studio, and was published by 1C Entertainment.

Plot

Forgive me Father takes us on a journey to the world from H.P. Lovecraft's writings, filled with monsters from the worst nightmares. During the game we play as a priest or a journalist, who eliminate hosts of adversaries, trying to find answers to their questions and trying not to go mad (to the rest).

Mechanics

In Forgive me Father the action was shown from the first person perspective (FPP). During the game we wander through various locations and eliminate hordes of enemies. On our way there are various creatures, such as living corpses or Liquidators resembling human and octopus hybrids. We kill them, using mainly firearms (like pistol, shotgun or machine gun) and gadgets like throwing knives. In addition, we use special skills on the battlefield, which we unlock as we progress. It is worth remembering that the priest and the journalist have different powers. And when all else fails, nothing stands in the way of trying to hit opponents with a broom.

During the fights we have to pay attention to the level of insanity of our character, because it has an impact on both the audiovisual setting and gameplay. As the described game is based on old school FPS style, we have to look for first aid kits on our way and firearms don't need to be reloaded.

Technical aspects

Colourful graphics of the game Forgive me Father were made in cel-shading technique. An interesting trick is the placement of opponent sprites in three-dimensional locations. The impression of experiencing a moving comic book is enhanced by text that appears on the screen at certain moments (such as "headshot" or "boom" after an effective explosion).
