## Description

_Dave: Accelerate_ is an action game, a fan game inspired by the webcomic
“Homestuck”. The game recreates one of the moments from the comic, when
character Dave Strider wages battle against monsters in a land made of giant
cogs floating upon lava.

Armed with a sword, Dave wanders the cogs, able to strike his enemies with a
variety of moves, as well as to dodge and roll out of (or into) harm’s way.
Dave also has the ability to time-travel into the past in order to
retroactively fight alongside his past self (from the player’s perspective,
this means that the entire world “rewinds”, creating a past Dave that repeats
the player’s prior actions and disappears after some time.) There is a
“Stride” meter; high Stride means that Dave can chain attacks nearly
indefinitely, while low Stride forces him to stop after a few or a single
attack. Should Dave’s health run out due to enemy attacks, he dies.

Throughout the game Dave is accompanied by the creepy ghostlike Calsprite, who
helps fight enemies and occasionally heals Dave.

Fallen enemies leave behind “grist”, which gives score when collected, to be
seen at the score screen which appears once the end goal is reached or when
Dave dies.
