About Chasing the Dawn / CTD

Chasing the Dawn is a pure hand-drawn pixel art probability management strategy game.
Whether you are a meticulous risk-management master or a lucky chosen one, prove yourself in this unpredictable dungeon!

Gather allies, collect runes, use items, avoid danger!

As the game progresses, you will gradually unlock five expedition members, each with unique abilities.
Controlling different characters to explore the dungeon, the situations you need to consider and the strategies you employ will vary greatly!

During your exploration, you will also encounter:
· Seven maps of different styles with corresponding mechanics
· Nearly a hundred types of enemies, traps, treasures, and food
· Nearly a hundred runes; properly combining them can boost your combat power during exploration
· Dozens of random events where opportunities and dangers coexist
· More challenges and game content will be continuously updated in future versions. Stay tuned!

Rebuild the village, unlock more game content

Bring back development resources from the dungeon to rebuild Dawnville.
Rebuilding not only unlocks companions and their abilities, but also provides support for further dungeon exploration.

Challenge higher difficulties, unlock unique rewards

As you delve deeper, the dungeon will gradually unlock more difficulty levels.
At higher difficulties, you will encounter more new events and empowered enemies.
Plan wisely, respond carefully, and constantly push your limits!
