Voracious
Short description
Voracious is a a hack and slash action game that tells a story of lust and greed.
Every young man from your clan must prove himself worthy.
To do so one must set forth on a quest and slay the voracious demon.
You have waited for this your whole life. Now it is your time.
The game was inspired by classic fantasy action games (Golden Axe, Rastan) where
hero fights hordes of enemies. In Voracious however, the story is more important
than the thrill of simple combat. This is not a story about revenge or treasure
hunting but the story about human worst traits – greed and lust for power. As
video game players often mindlessly focus on powering up their characters
Voracious explores this behavior in the narrative. The art style goes further
into simplicity than common retro pixel games. It uses ultra-simple black and
white vector graphics.
