Datura Mini
A downloadable game for Windows
This project is in development - content is unfinished and subject to change.
Pick your action-girl duo and tag-team your way through 6 stages of mob-mowing and trap-dodging arcade mayhem. Both party members make up two halves of your moveset so find the perfect match to slash, shoot, and platform your way to a top score!
Datura Mini is a simple project aiming to create a pure arcade score-attack experience through the lens of action platforming. Enemies appear easy to dispatch, but memorization and skill are required to get through each stage quickly and with a high score.
- Pair up 2 characters from a roster of 6 (and maybe more) - each with their own triplet of attacks and additional defensive ability - and find which movesets complement each other best
- Maximize your score by setting record times, hunting down every enemy, and hitting the bonus tokens scattered throughout each stage
- Keep attacks varied to fill the Hyper gauge - once it's full, activating Hyper Mode will add devastating effects to all attacks, as well as a score multiplier that slowly climbs if you can take out enough enemies before Hyper Mode runs out
