Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to keep improving the quality of the game and add more content over time, and we'd like to do that together with the people playing it.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Roughly 6 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“- Add more themes and stages to the campaign, and more maps to the Ranked Race and Free Run pools
- Add a co-op mode with maps that can only be cleared by two players working together
- Let you invite Steam friends directly into rooms and Sky Run
- Add more blocks and gimmicks to the Map Maker, and better ways to find good Workshop maps
- Keep adding outfits, titles, furniture and seasonal skin boxes
- Add outfit trading on the Steam Community Market
- Improve chat with report and block options and a quick chat for controller players
- Adjust ratings, seasons and rewards based on how people actually play”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“- Campaign: 72 stages across 12 themes, each with a star rating based on your time
- Ranked Race: up to 8 players on the same map in real time, with a rating. If there aren't enough people online, bots replaying real runs fill the empty slots.
- Free Run: make or join a room with up to 8 people, no rating
- Time Attack against the world No. 1 ghost
- Sky Run: a 557 m climb from the underworld to space with no checkpoints
- Map Maker with Steam Workshop. You have to clear your own map before you can publish it.
- A lobby with chat, your own house to decorate and visit others, and 216 outfits plus 28 titles
- A tutorial, 66 achievements, full controller support and 11 languages”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game is free to play now and will stay free after Early Access. Skin boxes and the paid track of the pass are optional, cosmetic only, and don't affect how you run.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We read the Steam discussions and reviews and we'll post what we're working on in Steam announcements. A lot of the game already comes from players: Workshop maps go straight into the Ranked Race pool, and we plan to pick popular ones for official content. We also look at things like clear rates and race results to spot stages that are too hard or ratings that feel off. When we're unsure what to build next, we'll ask in polls and events.”

About This Game

Dash it! is a 2D pixel platformer about running fast and not falling. You get a jump, a wall jump and an 8-way dash, and the rest is up to you.

Crystals give your dash back mid-air. Springs and clouds throw you higher. Bridges crumble under your feet, slime bounces you around, honey lets you stick to walls and ice won't let you stop. Every stage is a puzzle with more than one way through, and the fastest line is usually the scariest one.

  • Campaign: 72 stages across 12 themes, from Dawn Ridge to outer space. Beat the clock to earn up to three stars on each one.

  • Ranked Race: Up to 8 players on the same map at the same time. Your rating goes up and down with every race.

  • Free Run: Open a room, share the code and run with friends. No rating, just racing.

  • Time Attack: Run side by side with the world No. 1 ghost and chase their time.

  • Sky Run: A 557 m climb from the underworld to space with no checkpoints. Slip, and you land wherever you land.

Every block and gimmick in the game is in the Map Maker. Build a map, test it on the spot, and once you've cleared it yourself, publish it to the Steam Workshop. Maps from other players show up in Ranked Race too, so a good map gets raced a lot.

There are over 200 outfits and titles. Pick your head, body and back separately, then add jump and dash effects on top. Between runs, hang out in the lobby and chat with people on the same channel. You also get a house of your own to decorate with furniture and wallpaper, and you can drop by other players' houses.
