Primal Heir: The Mortal Realm

Primal Heir: The Mortal Realm is a story-driven pixel RPG about a world caught between fading gods of light and shadow, and the people forced to live in the middle.

At the heart of it are Kain, a village warrior tied to shadow, and Eldora, a girl of light whose path keeps drawing closer to his. This prototype follows Kain’s early days in Muja Village, right before their fates collide. Giving a taste of the world, combat, and tone I’m building toward.
