Over deze demo

This is a free demo for Drifting Dots, a minimalist physics game about creating a beautiful cascade. It's a generous slice of the game, designed to give you a true feel for the core experience without any time limits.

Your permanent progress, including all the Insight and Mantras you unlock, will automatically carry over to the full game!

Find Your Flow

Drifting Dots started from a simple idea: the satisfying, meditative sound of a thousand tiny impacts. Inspired by the elegant chaos of a Galton board, this is a game where you guide a stream of droplets through a grid of pegs. The "plinks" of the droplets striking the pegs create a unique, generative song, turning a physics simulation into a surprisingly calming experience.

In this demo, you'll master Pulse Mode, a rhythmic challenge of 45 fast-paced rounds. The gameplay is simple:

• Watch: Observe your cascade for a short action phase.

• Upgrade: Spend the Essence you've earned on powerful Attunements.

• Repeat: See the immediate effect of your choices as your simple stream grows into a magnificent waterfall.

The Start of a Deeper Journey

While the core loop is about the run, the real journey happens between them. After each 15-minute session, your final score is converted into permanent Insight.

You can spend this Insight in the Stream of Memory, a tree of permanent, game-changing upgrades called Mantras. This demo includes the entire first "chapter" of the Mantra tree for you to unlock, allowing you to:

• Permanently boost your core Attunements.

• Discover the first new droplet color, Amethyst, changing your future runs.

• Unlock foundational abilities that will shape your strategies.

The rest of the tree, with its more advanced and world-altering Mantras, is waiting for you in the full game.

Wishlist the Full Game to Continue the Path

If you enjoy the satisfying loop and strategic depth of the demo, the full version of Drifting Dots expands the experience even further:

• Two More Game Modes: Master the continuous Flow Mode and the deeply strategic Focus Mode.

• A Vast Skill Tree: Explore the entire Stream of Memory, unlocking dozens of Mantras like Prismatic Fusion and Still Waters.

• Dozens of Steam Achievements: Hunt down and unlock achievements to prove your mastery of The Cascade.

• The Ultimate Sandbox: Prove your skill to unlock the endless, score-chasing Endless Mode.

Thank you for playing. I hope you find your flow.
