The Stolen Dawn

The Stolen Dawn is a pixel-art puzzle-platformer that combines exploration, bow combat, and puzzle-solving with two distinct ways to play: a story-driven adventure and a roguelike-inspired Endless Mode.
Story Mode — Bring Back the Morning
The wizard Veyr has stolen the dawn and imprisoned Princess Lyra, whose magic is keeping its light alive. Guided by Pip, a small lantern spirit sent by the princess, you must journey to Veyr’s castle, break his hold, and restore the morning.
Travel through 35 handcrafted levels across seven chapters, crossing lush jungles, shipwreck-strewn shores, frozen ruins, fiery foundries, haunted marshes, and crystal caverns before reaching the castle. Navigate dangerous platforms, overcome traps, solve puzzles, and confront guardians bound by Veyr’s magic. Along the way, messages from Lyra reveal that she is still fighting from inside the tower—and relying on you to reach her.
Endless Mode — Push Further with Every Run
Take on a separate, procedurally generated challenge with randomized regions, changing level layouts, and increasingly powerful enemies and bosses. Collect crystals to unlock your path forward, defeat bosses to enter new regions, and push for a new personal high score.
Your progress does not end with a failed run. Collected coins carry over between attempts and can be spent on permanent Endless Mode upgrades, including more health, additional arrows per shot, faster movement, and stronger jumps. Return better equipped and discover how far you can go.
Follow the story to reclaim the dawn—or test your limits in an adventure with no final level.
