Developer Gator Shins and Hellforge Studios have released the first 10 blood-soaked levels of COVEN, a really fresh new retro FPS. Now in Early Access with Native Linux support.

What is it? Coven is a fast-paced retro fps/slasher where you take on the role of a young girl in an alternate 1600's who is wrongly accused of witchcraft and is burned at the stake. She's resurrected by an unknown force and seeks revenge. Her path of vengeance will take her across time and space.

Check out the trailer:

Current Features:

  • Utilize an explosive mix of early modern period weaponry and magic.
  • Movement is key - dash, slide 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 different places in time to uncover the secrets of the old gods.
  • Soundtrack by John S. Weekley aka Primeval.

Two more episodes are planned to release during Early Access, which the developer said it should all be complete in 2026. Each episode will be set in a different time and place across history.

I've also noticed a lot of "boomer shooters" lately are using what *I* would call ugly graphics - uglier than the classics.
