Despair

"'The incomplete human base on Io has been overtaken by hordes of demonic creatures from another dimension, preparing to make a beeline towards Earth. It looks like you're the only marine left alive there. Good luck.'""- Release tagline"Despair is a first-person-shooter survival horror game concept by Red-Verse-Writer, a spiritual successor to the Doom series, in particular Doom 3. The game is set in a science-fiction universe where humanity has begun to explore outer space, with a incomplete base on the Jovian moon Io under construction. Following a series of bizarre star movements, as well as the discovery of what appears to be remnants of a long-dead Ionian civilisation, portals begin opening over the skies of the Galilean moon and demonic beings begin pouring out, killing or zombifying any human they come across. The only survivors of the massacre are the player's character, a unnamed marine, and a scientist named Dr. Kelly Marrion, who is trapped within the base's central control room. Guided by Marrion, the marine must find a way to shut down the portals and prevent the demons from performing a invasion of Earth.

Gameplay
As a spiritual successor to the DOOM games, Despair is a science fiction first-person shooter with a emphasis upon combat and survival. Compared to its inspiration, Despair takes on a much more story-oriented approach, with slower gameplay and frequent dialogue. To combat enemies, the game allows the player access to a total of forty different weapons, ranging from conventional weapons such as a shotgun and submachine gun, tools improvised into weapons such as a welding torch and cutting tool, specialised human heavy weapons such as a rocket launcher and incendiary cannon, experimental sci-fi weapons such as a tractor beam and energy rifle, and stolen demon weapons such as a chainsaw-launching crossbow and magical claw-like gauntlet. Similar to Dead Space, regardless of what weapon is being used, the player can perform a melee punch and stomp attack that can be used to attack enemies and break open environmental obstructions. Enemies in Despair come in multiple forms and with different abilities and tactics, but fall into two broad categories of either undead or demons. Undead are humans possessed by demonic forces, who attack the player's character using a variety of melee weapons and firearms, while Demons are creatures from another reality, most of which attack using claws, spines or various magical spells.

As the player navigates the twelve facilities on the Io base, they will find ammunition for their weapons, health and sanity restoratives, key cards need to unlock certain doors or active certain computers, and specific crafting supplies, such as duct tape and light bulbs.
