The darkness comesFulqrum Publishing has announced that a sequel to Byte Barrel?s 2022 retro-inspired shooter, Forgive Me Father, is on the way to PC. Forgive Me Father 2 is said to ?build up on the satisfying action of the first game and double down on the striking pulp, comic book inspired visuals.?
A teaser has been dropped alongside (https://youtu.be/fJPxUZthqn0) the announcement, and as with most teasers, it doesn?t really show off anything in terms of actual gameplay. Just a pair of hands reloading a revolver.

At least that small bit of gameplay has shown off what is definitely an FPS. The first game in the series was a Lovecraftian twist on the classic shooter formula. It tied in creepy eldritch weapons and a madness system that let you go nuts on enemies. The graphics also strikingly feature 2D hand-drawn images.
In our review of the game, Noelle Warner found the original to be rather dull and repetitive (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-forgive-me-father/). Hopefully, for Forgive Me Father 2, Byte Barrel can address feedback and knock this one out of the park. It certainly has a visual style that makes it worth a look.
Forgive Me Father 2 is coming to PC at some point in the future. No release window was given.
