It was pretty fun, although so short... I'd play a full lengh game of this!
Hey glad you enjoyed it. Via Dolorosa was meant to be longer. I planned to recreate all stations of the cross so you'd see Veronica, Simon of Cyrene, Mary and John etc. but unfortunately had to cut it short.
In my initial design I was thinking of a more complex karma system where you can spare/kill/rape every NPC. This is what the "sifting of the wheat" refers to, which is the temptation of Satan. But I think it distracts from the central theme too much, so in the end Peter will always kill the Romans and the High Priest and spare other NPCs unrelated to the crucifixion.
Sacred Blood was meant to explicitly not revive, since the point of the game was Peter can't bring back the dead no matter how hard he tries, but I forgot to update the description. Sorry about that. The credits are also added in the new version v1.1.
