Beginning as a ''Franchise/{{Doom}}'' megawad, way back in 2009, the game was later [[DivorcedInstallment retooled]] into a {{retraux}}-style game that instead pays homage to the original ''Doom''.

''Doom''. It still uses a version of the [=ZDoom=][=/=][=GZDoom=] engine, originally created as a modern 3D-accelerated source port for ''Doom''. Influences have also been drawn from Bungie's ''VideoGame/{{Marathon}}'', in that mission objectives and the overall story are relayed to the player through text communications on computer terminals found throughout the game world.



* AIIsACrapShoot: Charon, your A.I. MissionControl, is only in charge of fighting the invasion because the actual security A.I. responsible for protecting the colony has been destroyed. As they were never programmed for anything more complex than calculating weather patterns and plant growth, they lack the ability for sophisticated or creative thinking required for such a situation. At one point they get a large portion of the remaining survivors killed because they are unable to distinguish between human survivors and hostile converted former humans, opening the bunker doors to a horde of monsters.



* ThisIsADrill: Zorah's first weapon is a rock drill, taken from the abandoned mining outpost. When upgraded it chews through hordes of low-level enemies turning them into plenty of red stuff - it even has a PileBunker that extends the drill for extra damage.

It's secondary fire is also a concussive blast that can kill groups of weak enemies in one shot and deal decent damage to stronger ones.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Expy}}: Charon seems to be 50% [[VideoGame/{{Marathon}} Durandal]] and 50% [[VideoGame/{{Portal2}} Wheatley]]; they're a support A.I. designed for mundane tasks who ends up recruiting you as their physical proxy for fighting an alien invasion, and also proves to be dangerous to the human survivors as well as the alien invaders. Unlike Durandal and more like Wheatley, the human casualties they cause are more due to incompetence rather than megalomania or sacrificing the few for the good of the many.

''Supplice'' is an action-packed, {{gorn}}-loaded FirstPersonShooter developed by the induie studio, Mekworx, paying homage to old-school, 90s FPS.

Beginning as a ''Franchise/{{Doom}}'' megawad, way back in 2009, the game was later [[DivorcedInstallment retooled]] into a {{retraux}}-style game that instead pays homage to the original ''Doom''.

In 2207, the alien planet Metheusalah has been terraformed by a MegaCorp called the Phoebus Technology Conglomeration (PTC), with a mining outpost installed on Metheusalah for harvesting plasma energy from the sun as the world's main source of energy. But when the Flux Gate technology, developed by PTC on the same outpost for re-inventing space travel, accidentally opens a portal to another dimension, monsters began pouring in en-masse.

Zorah Null (with a likeness is loosely based on actress Shaina West), an engineer on Metheusalah, was stranded behind the monster-infested outpost during the evacuation, and needs to fight her way out and figure how to shut down the portal. Luckily, there's an armory just nearby.

An Early Access was available in 2023, with an ExpansionPack expected later on.-
----
!! "The Flux Gate technology indulges humanity's lust for cosmic expansion... but at what cost?"
* AndThatsTerrible: One of the logs Zorah comes across states that Methuselah has been ''completely overrun'' by monsters, and cannot mount an effective resistance against the invading alien force. It ends with a "This is Not Good".
* ApocalypticLog: Every so often, Zorah can come across video logs of unfortunate survivors who didn't really escape the monsters. Notably, there's one from a scared worker forced to kill a mutated colleague before (unsuccessfully) trying to hide from the monsters.
--> please come and find me\\
take me away from here\\
i cant breathe...
* BlatantItemPlacement: While the outpost has been completely besieged without any survivors, the game also tends to be quite generous with ammo and supplies Zorah can help herself to. The final area takes this to the extreme where Zorah is fighting a massive wave of monsters - in a large room where every wall has an alcove containing ammunition.
* CaptainErsatz: Owing to the game's origin as a ''Doom'' megawad, many of it's enemies should look somewhat... familiar to ''Doom'' fans.
** There are gun-wielding zombie ex-soldiers who attacks the hero on sight, not unlike the low-level zombified ''Doom'' marines.
** Zorah also encounter humanoid creatures looking suspiciously similar to the Imps.
** The round, gigantic [[Film/TheLangoliers Langoliers-looking]] mouth-creatures is a CE of the Cacodemon.
* CaveBehindTheFalls: The mining outpost has an indoor waterfall that turns out to be quite shallow if Zorah wades through it. Walk through the cascading water and it turns out there's a secret area behind containing extra ammo.
* DistaffCounterpart: Zorah Null can be seen as one to the Doomguy, also [[RaceLift she's black]] (not too visible in-game, but it's clear from the cover art).
* ThisIsADrill: Zorah's first weapon is a rock drill, taken from the abandoned mining outpost. When upgraded it chews through hordes of low-level enemies turning them into plenty of red stuff - it even has a PileBunker that extends the drill for extra damage.
* ExplodingBarrels: Just like in ''Doom'', with their explosion radius wiping out plenty of enemies. They have a flammable logo on their sides for good measure.
* GunsAkimbo: Late into the game, Zorah can obtain and use two weapons at the same time. Including [[MoreDakka dual machine-guns]] so she can slay twice as much enemies, twice as fast.
* KillItWifhFire: There's a GrenadeLauncher which can blast incidinary rounds on enemies with fiery results.
* LudicrousGibs: Just like ''Doom'', enemies easily falls apart into chunks of red giblets on the slightest provocation, notably after getting hit from close range by the triple-barreled shotgun, caught by grenade explosions, or chewed by by the drill. Then there's the final area where Zorah fights over a hundred enemies emerging from a portal, one wave at a time, painting the floor red.
* MooksButNoBosses: The monsters comes in entire droves, but there isn't a boss anywhere. The final stage and ending in fact concludes with Zorah fighting a ZergRush of enemies rather than a boss.
