DAWN ONE

A HARDCORE MOUSE-DRIVEN ARCADE SLASHER
ONE LIFE. ONE ARENA. PURE SKILL.

WARNING: EXTREMELY PUNISHING GAME. TRYING THE DEMO FIRST IS RECOMMENDED.

DAWN ONE is a hack and slash pure action gauntlet controlled with the mouse. Inspired by 80's and 90's arcade game design tradition, it is minimalist, extremely simple yet extremely hardcore, and centered around overcoming difficulty through positioning, timing and flow mastery.

➡️ Chain together lightning-fast strikes with mouse-driven surgical precision.

➡️ Dodge through the air and slash through hordes of undead in a high-stakes dance with permadeath.

➡️ No checkpoints, no cooldowns, no compulsion loops, no filler. Just flow mastery and skill.

➡️ Up to 144 fps, no input lag. 

➡️ Become legend and dominate leaderboards in a fight for survival until DAWN ONE.
