Distinctive, stylised art style

A metroidvania where Dandara doesn't walk but leaps instantly from surface to surface, turning gravity and space into a puzzle of movement. Surreal pixel-art worlds reward exploration and demand precise leaping through tricky traversal and combat.

Dust: An Elysian Tail

Melee combat with weapons or fists
