Our take on dstnce.
Its focus on ordinary routines gives the game a narrow, activity-based structure. That focus leaves less room for combat, exploration across large areas, or layered progression than adventure games built around those systems.
What is dstnce.?
A platforming adventure centered on everyday activities.
Players work a day job, tidy a room, care for a plant, and move through the game with jumping and landing. The game also includes animated eyes, a chatbot powered by artificial intelligence, music that changes during play, and a rubber duck. dstnce. is a solo project by Daniel Coady.
