DAY 1
So the winning verses are Psalm 119:105, Matthew 14:20, and Ecclesiastes 3:11. I don't see myself using the verse in Matthew 14 in terms of gameplay, but could perhaps mention it in some lore or story bite. But Psalm 119:105 and Ecclesiastes 3:11 have strong gameplay connections in my eyes, they stand out to me, so I'll be incorporating these two in some way in my game.
Today I'll set up the project, look through my old concept art and ideas and see what ideas I'll revisit and what I'll need to make anew. I'll also plan out how I'm going to go about making this project to completion this time around. I'm a lot further ahead as a dev now then I was 10 years ago, but I have a lot more responsibilities now then I did then too! So it'll be interesting to see how things come together!
Story
A warrior sets out for revenge when their village is destroyed by strange creatures. Blinded by rage, they never realized how insufficient their power was. Defeated, broken, but not yet dead, a strange light comes upon the warrior and offers a second chance. As a voice begins to speak, the warrior is filled with an overbearing sense of hope, security, and peace. The chance they're given: through God or through their own power. If through God, they will be granted the ability and equipment necessary to defeat this evil bent on death. If not, well, they will lose on the battlefield not only of the body but that of the heart. The battle is against more than flesh and blood, and the light from The Highest will be a guide and a lamp through the dark and turbulent times ahead.
