Driven Out

Driven Out is a challenging 2D side-scroller that immerses players in a beautifully crafted 16-bit retro aesthetic. In this game, a farmer is thrust from her home into a perilous world teeming with fantastical creatures. Armed with little more than her wits, she must navigate through this dangerous landscape.

Fortunately, she discovers a magical contraption that allows her to create copies of herself upon her demise. This device enables her to set custom checkpoints throughout her journey, providing a strategic advantage. However, this checkpoint system is not foolproof; the fragile device can be targeted and destroyed by enemies if left unprotected.

Gameplay emphasizes deliberate combat where players must skillfully read enemy behavior to survive. The seamless world design ensures a fluid experience without loading screens, while the absence of character progression and loot means that success relies solely on player skill. Face numerous and varied enemies in this richly animated, retro-inspired adventure, where each battle presents unique challenges.
