Ghost Reaper is a fast paced FPS action game, with a lot of humping and jumping, looking like DOOM eternal in the way that gives you chills while playing it. The developer of the game himself said: "a DOOM eternal game mixed with titanfall movement". The idea itself is great. Imagine playing as doom guy slaying demons amid of the air after jumping on the wall like total overdose, that was a long sentence <3. The game is said to have low poly graphics, which I think is not bad.
The mechanics looks good, physics seem descent and carnage looks fun. There is a story mode with a solo campaign. "in the future, humans found a way to open a portal into another realm. once they opened the realm they discovered that they have released monsters from this realm into earth. Gods have fallen by those monsters and humanity pays the price for its interventions. Suddenly, appears the hero, who was born with powers gifted from gods to defeat those monsters." ----- as told by the developer. This kind of stories depends on the gameplay style and fluidity. Probably by now you have guessed the powers given from gods to the protagonist.
The combat system looks fun, fast paced and carnage. The amount of wall sliding while shooting flying monsters is insane. I like its style. the monsters are probably human alike but in black, subject to change by release tho. There are going to be boss fights. The upper screenshots show a dragon. There is some dodging you have to do, it isn't just shooting and wall sliding. All in all, solid combat system. The environment of the game is the backbone. From the screenshots, the game appears to happen in asian country. The areas of fight look diverse as a factory, a narrow street, a big square. the environments are somewhat good. That's all what is got from the screenshots, comment below if I forgot something.
The Verdict
Ghost Reaper is a great game. Good graphics, hooking story and a solid A combat. Sadly there is no current release date on the game. Make sure to support the developer by wishlisting the game on steam and following the dev on twitter to get the latest news.
