Project Website

Dust to Dawn is an indie action RPG with a unique aesthetic revolving around light and darkness. Its lighting system, implementing 3D dynamic lighting with 2D-pixel assets, impacts the gameplay foundation and world thematics. In the game, the player leads a caravan of nomads facing an encroaching darkness in an abandoned giant's house. They will use our unique lighting tech to explore, defeat enemies, and illuminate the darkest corners of the once-opulent house.
