God’s Gift is a platformer where you are not alone as you move. Instead, you are followed by a group of cultists you can shift into horrifying forms to get around puzzling environments.
As an emissary of the Old Gods, you have landed on Earth, and the people are very happy to have you among them. So happy, that they started worshipping you. As the Champion of these powerful beings, nothing can really kill you, so it doesn’t matter what you do. Your tiny human followers, however, are very fragile. Regardless, they can be used to help you move forward.
You see, in God’s Gift, you want to have a specific number of followers for the end of each level, which shouldn’t be a bother if you use them correctly. You are magical and have various abilities to use on your minions, transforming them into demons that can help far more than the average person.
Transforming them into a green demon, however, will allow them to make a big jump. If you’d rather turn them into a red, bull-like demon, they can plow through walls. A giant green demon will allow platforms of slime to be made for your little followers to walk on. You have a limited number of uses for each of these abilities, but every single one will help you get farther.
Along the way, you will also find triangles that produce more followers, which is especially useful as you kill them for various environmental puzzle-solving needs. Other altars will sacrifice some of your followers in exchange for new abilities.
God’s Gift is a pretty challenging game, even with all of the help from these humans. At the moment, you can play the demo for free, but if you like what you see, consider supporting the game on Kickstarter.
A demo for God’s Gift is available through its Kickstarter campaign.
