Certainly a powerful homage to Hexen, or maybe even Heretic series, as there are no classes, and more than four weapons. There are no Tomes of Power, but you still power up your weapons using souls of enemies. And Blue and Green mana crystals are straight from Hexen.
Choosing difficulty and episodes is done in Quake 1 style, where you walk around jumping through different portals.
The only part that really surprised me is how overpowered the starting weapon is. It fires magic missiles at a good pace, and those are homing, and I mean extremely homing – they can follow jumping enemies and still hit them.
Speaking of weapons, another really fun one is a Star of Torment. Combination of shotgun and nail gun that looks like a morgenstern. Corpses remain stuck to walls, similar to Messiah.
