#2: Report for Duty
Trained for alien worlds. Assigned to the griddle. (The second page I ever drew of this, redrawn in the game's pixels.)
The games
Three games, one world: the survey, the landing, and what became of it five centuries on.
Dania — First Encounter
2D Metroidvania action-platformer with action RPG progression
A 2D Metroidvania action-platformer with the loot, stats and skill trees of an action RPG, aboard a colony ship the size of a city. Graduate from the Academy, choose the family that raised you, and hold the ship together when first contact with a living planet goes wrong.
Dania — Expedition
Rocket flying, time attack and spelunking
A generation before landfall, the Mothership Dania surveys the worlds along its way. Pilot Kaspar Vahl flies the survey rocket; Dr. Amaia Reyes leads the science.
Dania — Elemental Discord
A role-playing game
Five and a half centuries after the landing, on Dania itself.
The studio
Dasota Universe is a one-developer studio, built around a world its founder has been drawing for more than ten years: the planet Dania. The Ship's Log follows the game week by week, and every Monday the comic tells what life aboard was like before it begins.
