What do you think of my custom story ideas?

As far as I can tell, The Star of Africa is incredibly similar to the story in Amnesia: The Dark Descent.

Yeh, but in the original game, you don't play as him during the expedition to Algeria, on the boat when he almost drowns or experience his nightmares. you only read or listen to Daniel telling about it in his diary entries. In "The Star of Africa" you will play on the boat, in the rainforest and in his nightmares.

The rainforest would allow me to experiment with lightning, particles and outdoor environment

The boat would allow me to experiment with textures, entities (the boat will sway), lightning, fog areas and other things.
