But while looking into ideas I recently noticed a sudden rise of Kingdom Hearts fan games starting development and I've always wanted to make my own Kingdom Hearts. However; I recently got the idea of "What if Kingdom Hearts was a horror game?" Using a similar gameplay style in a 2D platformer like perspective with NO KEYBLADE, but instead using magic as your only way to fight. With a twist! While you will have some generic spells you will still have combos to follow up using your magic. You can switch between certain types of magic to use different combos and switching at the right time could even result in a hybrid attack. Your magic will not be unlimited though giving way to the true horror aspect. Waiting for your MP to charge back up for needing to use an item will force you to run and hide like a Survival Horror game so it could change rather quickly (These are just ideas though).
Worlds: I want the worlds to be based on other urban legends, stories, maybe even creepypastas, but anything familiar yet new to explore. I will not do something like Nightmare on Elm Street or Silent Hill due to the fact that I desire to make this an original project with original worlds.
If you have any ideas for worlds wether that be a Fairy Tale, Urban Legend, Creepypasta or anything else please put them down below!
Worlds I can confirm for now:
-GothicWolfTail World
-Coffin County (The Incarnation of Cruentus Demonia)
-Twisteria (Tales of Despare)
-Unnamed Creepypasta based world (No door made just yet)
-H.P. Lovecraft/Cthulhu world
Concept sprites (I may be making artwork soon)
Main character sprite, other forms? (just an idea), Health setup (left side), Command setup (right side) Also includes the doors (which are your entrances to other worlds)
When the game is complete it will be free to play & download. Now where you can download it from is still in deciding. Most likely Gamejolt, Steam (if I can have the freedom to put it up for free and if I decide not to add "certain" worlds) or a future website I desire to make for my content.
Now this decision will determine whether or not I will be able to release the game on Steam (for Steam is for original content) While the game itself will be original the "decision" may not be. This idea are worlds based on already existing content like Lavender Town or Silent Hill. If I decide not to then Steam is a possibility but if I add worlds like those I could not be able to release it on there but I could still release it on things like Gamejolt.
Enemies decided: While the species of the enemies has not been finalized in decision, the idea is. These are creatures called Stalkers they use the doors just like Luna but not on the same plain of reality as her. Once they enter the other worlds they become physical and visible. This is when they become a true threat. Stalkers come from the Sins of humans. The image down below shows the most common of the Stalkers. They come from the sin of lying as even the most innocent of people have lied more than once in their lives. The less repeated and more evil sins for the bigger Stalkers. They feed off of the pain of others, they get along with those who sin the most but only if the sinner excepts then. Kind of like the heartless these sinners can control them if they're filled with enough sin and have successfully earned the trust of the Stalkers.They do this so they can both feed & eventually create more Stalkers as the more pain humans go through the more likely they are to sin for survival. How they get into a physical form is unknown.

Now we have some new sprites for the main character Luna. A young girl who wakes up in a dark mansion. She has no memory of who she is and where she came from. The only thing she does remember is her name. She's brave for her age and independently strong. She is cursed by the new trench coat she wears. She cannot take it off or all of her skin will fall off.
Sprites still in production
Other updates will be in the comments below!

Update 11/19/15: Hub World Concept & New Gameplay Concept
Now for something a little bigger. First the new Gameplay style. Original it was going to be an Action RPG but after much consideration for the story genre I decided to make it into a Point & Click adventure. This will change the nature of the game, concepts & the Stalkers quite a bit but I feel like the game is going to benefit from this.
Now for something different. I have a concept of the hub world ready. Now remember this is just a concept and may not be in relation to the final product.
Have any ideas, criticisms, or thoughts? Please tell me \(^o^)/ I'm all ears.
Anyway just remember that these are the only things I have for the project so it's still in pre-production.
