Short description
Cardinal Fall is a nonprofit, community-developed, story-driven, 3d side-view, survival-horror, single or co-op game set within an original far-future dystopian sci-fi universe where you play as a clone—known as an Echo, located in a research facility where catastrophic events are unfolding.
About this game
Brought to you by Metahusk, this game is an educational Unreal Enigne project that is intended to help others learn how to develop games. If you're curious, give it a try. The game is more bug-free than a lot of commercial releases. But if you're expecting a similar experience to what you get from a paid game, this game may not be for you. Note: This is an early release. Networking and co-op are implemented, but this release only includes the introductory level where there is no co-op gameplay outside of finding each other through coordination and having the correct items. If you are looking for a co-op game to play with friends, check back in the future. Until then, we recommend playing the game by yourself . About the game: Cardinal Fall is a nonprofit, community-developed, story-driven, 3d side-view, single to four player multiplayer, survival-horror, co-op videogame set within an original far-future dystopian sci-fi universe. Set in the year 2742, you play as a clone—known as an Echo—located in a research facility where catastrophic events are unfolding. In the game, players will explore a series of sprawling locations while planning a way to escape their eventual fate. Having multiple outcomes, Cardinal Fall will test the player and their friends as they navigate, learn, and survive the hostile environment they find themselves trapped within. Shepherded by Metahusk, a US based IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Cardinal Fall is a community project that is being developed for free by volunteers. This is an entirely donation driven game. If you like this project, you can donate by purchasing our Donation DLC on Steam or by visiting our website at more information. The game is currently in production. This is an early release that features the introductory level. If you are a developer and would like to contribute, we would love to hear from you. This side-scroller version is an early prototype of a larger first-person edition we plan to produce in the future. In the first-person release of the title, the focus will be placed on the immersion, horror, and atmospheric elements of the game.
