Description

Driven Out is a challenging 2d side-scroller with deliberate combat and beautiful 16 bit retro aesthetic. Our heroine is forced from her home into a dangerous world in upheaval were she is being attack by dangerous fantastical creatures.

Luckily our heroine have stumbled upon a magical contraption that creates copies of herself if she perishes. As long as this strange device has power she can place custom checkpoints. However, it is a fragile device and if the enemies choose to attack the device it will quickly break.

The enemies are numerous and varied in this seamless world. Our heroine has no combat experience but as long as she keeps her wits about her and read the enemies she should prevail.
