Cut straight to the core with 100% mouse-driven arcade hack 'n' slash!

The arcade tag is thrown around easily on Steam, but DAWN ONE is pure arcade: Nothing gets in your way! No cooldowns, no grind, no skill trees, no meta progression unlocks. Every run is equal.

Ultra accessible, ultra hardcore - you are overpowered, and so are your enemies. Old school arcade style. Master the flow, climb the leaderboard and become legend!

Try the demo now - and tell all your friends cause I've got exactly zero marketing budget 🙃

This announcement is a few days late, as I've been ill... Human here - not AI bot 😝

I have removed the store page's Playtest signups but since there was an influx of players from my last tweet on X I left the playtest build available for people who have already signed up. I will totally remove it in a week or so.

Good bye playtest build... I will miss you, but the "official" demo is coming soon! I am aiming to release it next month, shortly after Next Fest since I missed the sign up window for this one. I might release it on the 5th of March, or the 11th, or the 19th, depending on how fast i recover from this illness and how fast Valve approves the build.

Thank you so much for trying the playtest build! It's been awesome (not) to see people beat my personal best on the leaderboard.

Take care of yourselves and all the best!
