Kingdom of Darkness (Fantasy Horror Game) Devlog

I recently have started a long term project that I want to commit to. A fantasy horror game, with some exploration mixed in. I have took some time to come up with concept art, as well as the idea for the game. It takes place in a long forgotten medieval kingdom, where all hope is lost. It was once a happy land, full of joy and laughter, ruled by a benevolent God. God had once been served by his Arch-Angels, but they rebelled centuries ago, and so, the Lord imprisoned them in the Darkness.

But, then, centuries after their imprisonment, the demons broke free, and were able to defeat the God, putting him into a deep slumber. No one quite knows how the demons escaped, but it matters little now. They destroyed the wardens of the Sky, shattering the sun and covering the land in deep night. All hope seemed lost. The kingdom turned into a chaotic battle, fighting in the darkness. In the end, only a few survivors remained. Some chose to serve the demons, while others resisted, and were killed. Some, like you, the Knight, simply hid. However, one day, you must choose one side or the other, and it is up to YOU to make that choice. Until then you must run and hide from the demons, all the while trying to learn more, explore the new landscape around you, and decide what to do.

Gameplay focuses on exploration, horror, storytelling, and choice. I have some early gameplay (very rough) working, but I need to polish it more before I share it. I put together the above trailer with an early main menu, to sort of tease the game, as well as establish the atmosphere and mood. I will post updates here. I hope to have the game ready by Christmas. Let me know your thoughts. 

I did all the models aside from the Knight, which is a modified version of a downloaded model.
