GRAVEN News

Greetings, everyone!

Allow us to inform you, loyal players of GRAVEN, that another first-person-shooter from Fulqrum Publishing has just left Early Access and is available now - the game is none other than Forgive Me Father 2!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2272250/Forgive_Me_Father_2/

Drawing inspiration from various FPS subgenres, including classic boomer shooters like Quake and Doom, combined with modern mechanics, unique visual style, and Unreal Engine 5 technology, Forgive Me Father 2 offers an action-packed retro-meets-cutting-edge love letter to all FPS fans.

Building upon the original with a darker story, players are now entrenched deeper into the mythos, with equipable Dark Tome pages to upgrade their madness skills. Be that healing wounds with Lifesteal, becoming more powerful with Might, boosting fire rate and reload speed with Haste, or reducing incoming damage with Resistance, players can give their mind to the eldritch apparitions to improve their chances of survival.

While Forgive Me Father 2 has seen multiple major updates over its Early Access period, today’s 1.0 launch introduces tons of new content including vast new levels, new weapons, eldritch monstrosities to battle, and much, much more!

Starting from today, players will be able to explore the suitably-named Nightmare Land, a low-gravity Hellscape filled with gigantic mushrooms, and of course, hordes of Lovecraftian monstrosities ready to devour their flesh and soul. If mushrooms aren’t your thing, why not face the chilly horrors of the new Arctic level, which also launches as part of today’s 1.0 release?

Players will also be able to get their hands on new tools of destruction, such as the melee weapon known as ‘The Suspicious Box’, which clears theirs personal space when surrounded by hideous monstrosities. Or if you’d prefer, why not kill enemies through sight alone? Then you’ll love the latest addition to the Dark Tome system, which wounds enemies within your sight at unbelievable frequency. No one is safe as long as you have a clear line of sight to your target.

Get Forgive Me Father 2 for a discounted price and if you think playing the second installment without even trying the first one, be informed that there is a bundle that includes both of these games and that offers a bundle discount (this discount applies even if you already own one of the included games).

Greetings, everyone!

Steam Next Fest is upon us! With so many titles to choose from this week, it’s easy to get lost. And that’s why Fulqrum Publishing is on hand, with a diverse selection of three demos among which we are certain you can find a new favourite! Will you to take a stand in the eternal conflict between Arcane Magic and Steampunk Revolution in New Arc Line, prove your political brilliance in a grand strategy that will take your legacy to the stars in Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond, or become a master of sword and magic in VED?

[h3]New Arc Line[/h3]

Take a stand in the eternal conflict between Arcane Magic and Steampunk Revolution and tip the uneasy balance between sorcery, elves, dwarves and mysterious monsters on one side and steampunk gadgets, zeppelins, and tesla guns on the other in this single-player, party-based, story-rich RPG.

In the demo, you will be thrown right into the middle of a deadly epidemic of the Iron Plague - select from 2 classes and play as either a Voodoo Shaman or a Diesel Engineer of either the Human or Elven race, and investigate what's going on in the Leprosarium; a hospital specializing in treating patients in the Slums district suffering from the horrific disease. With several ways of completing the quest and moral decisions to make along the way, will you rise to the occasion?

[h3]Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond[/h3]
Prove your political brilliance in a grand strategy like no other: pick any contemporary country, set up your government and navigate the pitfalls of domestic and international politics. A glorious destiny awaits - the domination of not just the Earth, but the whole Solar system!

The demo will allow you to govern either Germany or Mexico, and you will have 5 in-game years to show off your cunning leadership skills in the new, extreme Overdrive mode. At launch, any contemporary nation will be available for your ambitions, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and everything in between, and you will be able to enjoy different campaign modes to boot!

[h3]VED[/h3]
VED is a story-driven, hand-drawn RPG with a unique turn-based combat system and roguelite elements. Set in two different worlds, VED tells the story of Cyrus, a young hero who sets out on a quest to become a master of sword and magic, and save everything he knows from destruction.

The demo will let you sneak a peek at a very early part of the game's story - just enough to whet your appetite, but with no significant spoilers!
