Welcome to Dash Dash Dead! This is the last playtest before the demo goes live and it comes jam packed with cool things! As a recap, since the last playtest:

24 new items have been added
Art style changed drastically
2 bosses await you in this build instead of one
There is a leaderboard now
New UI has made it's way in
Brand new Tutorial flow

Plus another boss, Doctor Plague!

What I need your help with:

How does balancing feel?
Readibility (is it clear where you can walk/what you can interact with/where you are/what is an enemy)
Are the quests interesting?
ANYTHING regarding tutorial! (seriously I have people telling me barely 20% is covered and there are others saying this is way too much already)
Overall Fun! (I personally love it, but stockholm syndrome is a thing)

plus anything that comes to your mind! Discord | Feedback Form
