Cardinal Fall

An Unreal Engine Learning Project

Brought to you by Metahusk, this game is an educational Unreal Engine project that is intended to help others learn how to develop video games. If you're curious, give the game a try. It's more bug-free than a lot of commercial releases. But if you're expecting an experience on the level to what you get from a paid game, this game may not be for you.

If you would like to help with the project—at any skill level, more information is available on our website.

About The game

Cardinal Fall is a nonprofit, community-developed, story-driven, 3d side-view, survival-horror 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 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. We are an entirely donation driven organization. If you like this project, you can donate to us on our website or by purchasing one of the game's Donation DLC's.

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.
