About TheDawn
✦ AI summary
Fight AI-dominated armies as Maya, a psychic warrior who manipulates time to freeze enemies, speed herself up, and rewind situations in tactical third-person combat. Blast your way through a dystopian future Korea to take down the oppressive AI ruler Blender and reclaim humanity's hope.
TheDawn is a third-person shooting game that combines classic shooting with unique skills. Fight against the AI that dominates humanity.
Artificial intelligence, which was developed for the convenience of the Earth in the near future, is now dominating mankind beyond the singularity of technology. They are experimenting with humanity, continuing research, and exploiting labor to advance technology.
Maya is a psychic who can deal with the time created by the research of artificial intelligence. She can stop a narrow range of time, accelerate her time to move quickly, or turn it back to its previous state. I have a gun there.
In the near future, Korea no longer has its former splendor. The city has declined, and the language system has been banned by artificial intelligence. But on the contrary, the facilities of artificial intelligence are very luxurious. They wanted to emulate the rulers of history, build a huge structure and display their power through colorful decorations, which led to the construction of a building that looked like a huge palace that could be seen everywhere in the city.
Now Maya knows where to go. Her goal is a palace that shines huge in the center of the city. We get there, we knock down the ruler Blender.


Be the dawn of humanity who has lost hope.

Best free game of 20201 found this helpful
fun
game was just fine, using controller basically barely works, and 1 of the controls dont even work with it, also the final boss, i quit playing, i would be nowhere near the attack, or i would perfectly dodge, i still get dmg taken also the last 3 areas, there was so much of the screen was basically news for an epilipsy attack, lights flashing making it so you cant see and wind up getting screwed and dying
For a vertical slice of a third-person wave based and anime-styled shooter TheDawn is not bad. As far as games made by student go its actually a decent game project. The 3D model of the heroine Maya is tastefully made and look distinct with her cel sahding over the hand-painted environments, especially when viewd from a distance. It was this combination that attracted me from the beginning. After some closer inspection of Maya it becomes clear that the team could have done a much better job with the shaders and textures. The cel shading they use for her becomes rather one-note and make her lack visual depth which more fine-tuned shader-work could have had. But for a debut game its a great start! Storywise it seems to be the worn Terminator/AI against humans plot, which granted in 2026 hits a bit harder to home. Add post apocalyptic theme, an urban setting, a pinch of melancholoy and some Korean voice acting to that and it makes for a pretty appealing fromula. But when it comes to the actually gameplay it gets repetitive and rather dull quickly. The shooting doesnt feel juicy and the mouse + keyboard controls is clunky. When swarmed by enemies its easy to lose your bearin…
