Dap

Definitely a hidden (very hidden) gem in the Steam library. This game is the perfect "midnight game". It's athmosphere is strong. Its story is dark but filled with hope. The combat is dynamic and makes it feel like a survival horror game. Deserves more that it'll ever get.

Runs great on Steamdeck. Yet another one of those games thats hard to find words for. The art, sound, music, gameplay... whole package is great. Parts i found myself getting frustrated at felt nice to complete. Its not a very difficult game but it does have moments where it gets hard. If you like cute things but also dark stuff this one is for you. A longer experience would be great however the length is perfect for the game as it is.

This has to be one of my top 3 indie games that I played this year. I love the music, the art style and the atmosphere. I've never played a game like this before. I fully recommend this game, it's a hidden gem!

I'm on chapter two and it is amazing! its super hard at some parts so if you're not into puzzles or strategy games i wouldn't recommend dap. I love the art style and the plot so far, it's such an underrated game!!!

Я словно поиграла в один из моих старых сюрных и жутких снов... Плюсы: странный сюжет, атмосфера, музыка, визуал, определённая сложность и, разумеется, dap. Минусы: всего одна часть... мне как всегда хочется больше крутого инди... Серьёзно, я хочу продолжение в этом же сеттинге

Estéticamente el juego es hermoso, tiene una buena dificultad y la historia es bonita y misteriosa, recomendado

Overall I would say this game is a bit of a hidden gem, and I'm always excited to recommend games by Aussie developers. The sound design and general atmosphere of the world is very engrossing and the gameplay does a good good of emulating some of the technical aspects of more popular 2D action games without being too frustrating. However, I was disappointed in the ending, because it hinges on collecting all of a certain non-essential item. The level design is oppressively dark, which complements the atmosphere and story, but doesn't incentivise exploration. This is definitely not a typical metroidvania style adventure game. At least on a first playthrough, the player is mostly focused on simply surviving and therefore will probably miss some of these critical items and achieve what I thought was a non-ending. This is more of a personal gripe and in general the game is well made and worth a try for those looking for atmospheric horror-action games
