Vespers

Vespers is an umbrella game developed by sunset☀studios for the Horizon. Unlike previous umbrella game attempts, it aims to be more of a side project, having no storyline or premise; it's just characters fighting for no good reason.
==Gameplay==
Vespers is a third person fighting game inspired by the likes of Overwatch and Splatoon, as well as taking elements from games such as Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Characters are placed in a large map and made fight each other, usually in teams.
Maps are much larger than would normally be expected in this genre, combining arena-based combat with open world gameplay. These larger maps allow for much more variety in terrain and strategy, allowing for much more varied experiences. Measures have been taken to ensure that players can find each other on these large maps, such as hazards driving players to a certain area, or telltale signs like footprints.
Each character has a set of skills, which their gameplay is based around. For example, Ava has the ability to place lava, making her a tricky character based around placing traps and ambushing foes. Each character has their own advantages and drawbacks, and it takes a while to get used to each one. Every character also has a powerful skill, known as a Deadly Sin, which can only be used after drinking a vial. There are 7 vials hidden in every map, in randomised areas.
Players can make use of various items found across the maps, found lying around, in chests, or hidden behind small challenges. Items have various effects, so you'll have to try each one out. By using a Morty Manipulator Chip, you can summon an AI-controlled Pocket Morty to fight alongside you. Pocket Mortys are typically weak, but can help when taking down difficult opponents. POP! Figures can also be found, acting as assists. They function differently from Pocket Mortys, as they do not follow your lead, and are rarely influenced by you. POP! Figures function similarly to Assist Trophies from Super Smash Bros.
Among the various items found are Tarot Cards. Players can equip a maximum of four Tarot Cards, which act as boosters. In total, there are 88 Tarot Cards, representing the 22 Major Arcana, and the 4 Suits - Wands, Pentacles, Cups, and Swords.

Character 	Description	
Ava Ire 	Ava Ire, you are a fire! Once upon a time, Ava was just a 15 year old girl haunted by a demon named Wrathia. However, a lot has changed since then, and Ava has since merged her soul with her tormentor and become half-Vengess, and full wrath. Ava is a tricky character, with huge power if used correctly. Ava works best as an ambusher, who can then release all sorts of hell on her victim. Ava wields a fiery battle-axe, and the ability to summon lava, allowing her to set up traps. Using her limbo lenses, Ava can even spot opponents who are cloaked! Some of Ava's alternate costumes can use the Chattermina special taunt.

Xander 	Xander is the prince of Nohr, wielding the divine blade Siegfried. He's a bit of an introvert, but cares for his siblings deeply and will fight for what he believes is right. Xander is somewhat of a tank character, wearing a suit of armour and dealing heavy damage with his darkness-imbued blade. However, Xander isn't the slowest, and can even summon a horse to boost his speed drastically. Xander is all about surprising opponents by switching between cavalry and infantry status.

Zelda 	Princess Zelda has always been able to fend for herself, but this iteration takes it to a whole new level when she traps herself in Hyrule Castle for 100 years to weaken Calamity Ganon. She comes armed with, not magic, but a Sheikah Slate, armed with various runes, making her a well-rounded, yet technical character. Her speed is lacking, but she has incredible range to make up for it.

Map 	Description 	
New Donk City 	Take me down to New Donk City, where the Donks are new, and the city is city! New Donk City remains much as it is in the original game, with only a few new elements added. This map has a massive variety in terrain, and a balance between wide open and enclosed spaces. Beware; your biggest enemy in this map may be fall damage! 	
Vast Poni Canyon	The Vast Poni Canyon is a difficult stage with many layers. One can opt to take the high ground and wander the various ridges lining the canyon, or hide inside the labyrinthine caverns. Alternatively, why not stay on the ground and avoid attacks by seeking shelter? A large tree provides easy access from the ground floor to the ridges without having to enter any caverns. If you can make it through the Dragon Trial and reach the Altar waiting for you at the end, you might find a special companion!	
The Framework 	The Framework is a dangerous place. In a twisted reality where HYDRA took down SHIELD, you're a wanted criminal. Not only do you have your foes to worry about, but HYDRA soldiers will attempt to take you down, believing you to be an Inhuman. If you can reach Madame Hydra's office, you can manipulate the Framework to stop guards from hunting you. If you're low on health, you should look for the portal to the real world, which will heal and respawn you.

Item 	Description 	
Vials 	Vials are special items that, when consumed, allow you to activate your Deadly Sin. They're very difficult to find, with only a maximum of 7 of them ever being on a map. While vials come in 7 different variations, each one has the exact same effect, aside from a different animation.	
Morty Manipulator Chip	When you get a Morty Manipulator Chip, you can summon a Pocket Morty to assist you. There's a wide variety of Pocket Mortys, and the one selected is completely random. You could end up with a really powerful ally, or a terrible excuse for a Morty. It's all down to luck!
