  • I made this trailer for a game (that does not exist) just to see if anyone else wishes they could get a survival horror warhammer40k game.
    In the video, a solitary Space Marine, Ultramarine lands on a planet thats been decimated by world eaters and the daemons of khorne. Why is he alone? Why has the planet been destroyed? Is there enemies still there? Im not sure. Thats kind of the fun of leaving things to a mystery.
    Doom 3, Alien Isolation, Dead Space etc. Those Sci Fi Horror games are always so legendary and warhammer 40k has such a good environment for it.
    I do not work for games workshop nor do I represent them in anyway.
    Big thanks for guidance:

    If you think I should keep making pixel stuff like this in addition to painting videos, lemme know by using the like button. If this video does well, I'll get to work on some bigger scale stuff. Happy Friday!

      I love those! The style works for me bloody well, touches something deep inside hahah. Those were good times, no matter how clumsy the games were they still gave so much joy.. now it all looks so damn good and at the same time nearly all of those new games are so utterly boring and weak. Unreal engine and they think they're done, it's sad. Digression, I love both those animations and painting vids though I'm kinda eager to understand your painting style better so only if we can get both, without killing your personal life 😂

    Oh hell yeah, could go so many directions with this, arguably space marines might not be the best main character for a survival horror game. Their insane physique and modifications make it hard not to feel godly, which is out of place in a survival horror, but there are situations that can make a space marine look like a puppy, and I live for that stuff. It would be an interesting juxtaposition to the warhammer pixel game Boltgun, which makes you feel like doomslayer.
    Give a [insert favorite loyalist chapter here] a strong reason to protect his own life in order to complete a mission/oath, take away his power and wound him, throw him into a BAD situation involving xenos, mutants, or chaos. I think that sounds like an epic survival horror setup.
