About This Game

Kindred Arms: The Runt of Hell

Marik was born last in Hell's registry, a runt among demons, thrown to the lowest layer with the refuse. When his parents sacrificed themselves, they became his arms: his mother the sword, his father the gauntlet. Now he climbs. Ring by ring, boss by boss, with outcasts like Sallow, the exiled keeper, at his side, until the cluster of Hell that mocked him kneels to its new demon king.

Key features

  • Fight with your family. Fast chains with your mother's blade, cast spells with your father's gauntlet.

  • Bosses that talk back. Demon lords with names, grudges and second chances.

  • A cruel underworld . Lava rivers, bone galleries, rot cells and the shrines that light the way.

  • Grow stronger through orbs, relics and the codex of everything you meet.

  • Companions from the bottom of Hell. Outcasts first, friends after.

In development

The game is still being made. More rings, bosses and companions are coming. Wishlist to follow the runt.

A note from the developer

Kindred Arms is made by one person. AI tools helped generate some of the assets and some of the code, but not all of them, and every one of them was chosen, edited and placed by hand. The design, the story, the fights and every decision are mine.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This is a solo-developed game. AI tools were used to generate some assets and some code, not all, and every result was chosen, edited and placed by the developer. Specifically: store artwork and the title logo (generated, then edited by hand), voice lines and sound effects (generated), some 3D models (generated, then reworked by hand), and parts of the code (generated, then reviewed and edited). No AI content is generated while the game runs.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Kindred Arms is a dark fantasy hack-and-slash set in Hell. It contains frequent fantasy violence against demons and monsters, with blood, dismemberment and cinematic execution kills. Environments include gore and body parts (butchered remains, cages, rot cells). Enemies and bosses threaten and taunt the player with violent language. There is no nudity, sexual content, drug use or depiction of self-harm. The story involves the death and sacrifice of the hero's parents.
