From the developer Yahya Danboos comes a Kingdom Hearts inspired action RPG named Luminous Nights, coming to PC.
Here is what the developers revealed about the game.
About:
Luminous Nights pairs 3D platforming and exploration inspired by Kingdom Hearts 1 with fast-paced action-RPG combat inspired by Kingdom Hearts 2. Bringing these elements together, Danboos aims to recapture the sense of adventure he fell in love with during the series’ PS2 era, while telling an original Arabian fantasy story.
Players take on the role of Faris, a 14-year-old boy from a modern-day city who is suddenly transported into another world. He awakens in Noor City, an unfamiliar city trapped beneath an endless night, far from everything he knows.
Drawing inspiration from One Thousand and One Arabian Nights, Arabian folktales and folklore, Noor City is filled with bustling bazaars, ancient ruins and towering palaces. But its people are threatened by Afreets, evil djinn controlled by the Masked King. Faris is joined by Sahar, a fairy companion who can transform into a sword to help him battle the Afreets. Together, they confront the Masked King’s forces as Faris searches for a way home.
The adventure balances exploration with fluid, real-time battles. Players will jump and climb across rooftops, discover hidden paths and rewards, and face enemies with ground and aerial combos, defensive maneuvers and powerful magic. New weapons and abilities expand Faris’s options as he grows stronger throughout his journey.
