Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The game is being developed for free by members of the community. We're releasing the game in stages so everyone can see what we've built.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We cannot project an accurate release date because the project is built by volunteers. The level of commitment they make to the project varies and, as such, the development is not constant. We estimate the game will leave early access by January of 2030.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Currently, this early release only has one enemy type, the introduction to the story, and the introductory level. But we aim for the full version to include an entire storyline, a large facility to explore, multiple weapons, various game mechanics, a lot of enemy types, and multiple endings.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“As of right now, early access consists of the introductory level. We do extensive testing before each release, which should result in a relatively bug free experience.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No, the game is free.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The game itself is developed by the community. We welcome and appreciate any help we can get, even if it's only a positive review or a bug report.”

About This 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 project. Check out our website at for more information on how to help.

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.
