DevLog 11 - Glimpse of the First Content Update

Hello cultists!

It’s Byte Barrel again with another Forgive Me Father 2 DevLog. Although today’s piece will have a little bit of a different form since we’ve prepared a sneak peek at what you can expect in the first Content Update from Forgive Me Father 2’s roadmap. Let’s take a look, shall we?

Oh and we almost forgot, the first Content Update will be available on April 4th!

It’s melting time!

For the first Content Update, we teased the fact that we plan to add a few new weapons, and here is one of them. Eldritch Grasper is a Lovecraftian variant of the rifle that allows you to melt your opponents in the blink of an eye. With enormous fire speed and tons of ammo, it’s perfect when fighting larger groups of enemies, but also against a single opponent with enough health it’s actually worth charging this powerful but slow gun.

Here’s the Eldritch Grasper in action:



Back to school with Forgive Me Father 2

Besides the Eldritch Grasper we also have two brand-new levels for you to discover - one of them being the Basement and the other one the University, a level inspired by Miskatonic University, which some of you may know from H.P. Lovecraft’s works. But we’re pretty sure that you’re not going there to study.

You will have the opportunity to explore auditoriums (full of enemies), study halls (also full of enemies), and much, much more this twisted university has to offer. But that’s not all. There’s also something shady going on in the underground levels of this place. Someone is conducting experiments to study electricity and trying to create unimaginable sources of energy, but what for?





The madness is expanding!

Some time ago, in a DevLog dedicated to the Madness System, we put a graphic that hinted at one of the Dark Tome cards that could possibly appear in the near future. Some of you were right with your guesses, or at least pretty close, but now we’re here to resolve any doubts about what this power-up actually might be.

The new Dark Tome page is, in fact, called Mirror, and here's this power-up short description:

“Madness has many faces, and masochism is apparently one of them. If you like unconventional methods of getting rid of your enemies, then this power-up may be what you are looking for.

Laugh in the face of your opponents as you watch them die by their own hand. Whenever you are hit by an enemy's attack, the damage you receive is returned back with multiplied force.”



A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one


Also, since we promised more than just one weapon, here's a little glimpse of the second tool of destruction you will wreak havoc with in the near future.

Another thing we wanted to share with you in this DevLog is the fact that plans regarding the size of the first major update have slightly changed, and you can expect more new content than we originally said we would add - but let’s not spoil all the fun right away.

That’s all for now! Thank you for reading and make sure to get yourself a copy of Forgive Me Father 2 if you haven't done it already and if you did, leaving a review of it here on Steam would be really nice! And don’t forget to drop by our Discord to chat with us and other players!

Until next time,
