Coven is a fast-paced retro fps/slasher which is heavily inspired by classic fps games such as Blood, Hexen, Unreal and Timesplitters.

In the first episode you take on the role of a young girl in the 1600's who is wrongly accused of witchcraft and is burned at the stake. She's resurrected by an unknown force and seeks revenge.

In the first episode:
- Utilize an explosive mix of early modern period weaponry and magic
- Movement is key - dash, slide, teleport and slow down time in order to survive
- Eat the flesh of the newly deceased to regain health so you may continue on your path of rigorous vengeance
- Explore villages, temples, forests and cities to uncover the secrets of the old gods
- Slammin' tunes by John S. Weekley aka Primeval

More episodes will release during early access. Each set in a unique time period.
