About

You're the Damned One, a reptilian Fallen Holy Warrior, seeking for Penance to atone for your sins against your kind. You have been given a task: Go through the gates of Hell and destroy all the sin you can see.

You start with your sword and pistol, and you will find more weapons in the corners of Hell.

Show them your Holy Fury, and only then you shall be redeemed.

Penance is an oldschool style FPS with procedurally generated levels and gritty retro graphics, where you play as anthropomorphic lizard dude (look I like lizards okay). The goal of the game is simple: Cause enough carnage and earn points from each kill, collect keys each level to get through the portals, then show off your highscore to your friends. The game has a Discord support, so people can see your score while playing. If you get high enough score, you will get the ending cutscene. Penance also has bunnyhopping that increases your speed, crouch-sliding and a rage mechanic, that when activated, gives you double damage to all weapons, except the sword does quadruple damage.

Default Controls:

  • WASD - Movement
  • Spacebar - Jump
  • Left mouse button - Shoot
  • Right mouse button - Zoom
  • Scrollwheel and number keys - Change weapon
  • Z - Activate rage when yellow bar is 100

Controls should be able to be remapped from game launcher. 

I haven't tested controller with this game, it was created for mouse and keyboard in mind.

This game was simply made for fun, because it's something I felt like I wanted to play and I love oldschool style FPS games. It's probably not that difficult game for FPS players, but I am proud of this game and I find it fun and satisfying to play.

I used a lot of feedback I got from Ironscale and Castle Rodok to make this game, but also learned a lot of new things. I hope you have as much fun playing Penance as I had making it!

If you want to share your highscore with me, join my Discord server!
