changedI wanted to say this for years and the time has finally come. Dash Dash Dead took root after a Global Game Jam (the same one happening right now!) project and evolved into a satirical, chaotic and fun experience. Blending turn-based gameplay with real time consequences, in a fictional capitalistic dystopia is something most Eastern European developers feel in their hearts and I'm no exception.

Welcome to Dash Dash Dead!

I wanted to say this for years and the time has finally come. Dash Dash Dead took root after a Global Game Jam (the same one happening right now!) project and evolved into a satirical, chaotic and fun experience. Blending turn-based gameplay with real time consequences, in a fictional capitalistic dystopia is something most Eastern European developers feel in their hearts and I'm no exception.

As a solo developer who left AAA/AA productions, this is a special moment. One that I'd like to share with you all, because:

Playtest is LIVE!

Dash Dash Dead

From 31st of January to all the way to 14th of February you can participate in the first public taping of Dash Dash Dead!

If you signed up, check your inbox. Not in yet? Don't worry, you can still apply to join!

What to Expect

This build is about 8-15 minutes of gameplay for one playthrough, but with every Systemic - Chaotic Roguelike, there is always something new to discover (builds, side quests etc). High replayability guaranteed!

Your objective is to Kill the Kingslayer. Of course if it would be that easy, everyone could do it and the ratings would fall flat. So explore, gear up and test your skills against the managements finest!

Jump in and tell me what you think
