• Attempting to fix problems w/ Steam Achievements - 1 December 2025

  M.matec and GGHallGamer mentioned that the achievements were not working — either not being registered as unlocked if one was acquired, or not registering at all! With a bit of testing, I personally (on a test account with no achievements acquired) unlocked enough achievements to see it function.Firstly: Remember to make sure the client downloads the update (b. 3002 pacth 2) before trying out the new pacth.Though I noticed (for some reason) that the Hard Mode achievement — where you complete a level on Hard difficulty — was not showing up in the in-game overlay, but instead in the Steam client when I exited the game! At least it registered as achieved.This might be due to the way Steam caches the achievement list in the back end. When I deleted some of the achievements around build 3001 and then added the new ones (Hard Mode, Expert Mode, etc.), it may have skewed the order of the achie…

• Build 3002 is live! WASD movement & new level filters - 12 November 2025

  Build 3002 introduces WASD-controls for keyboard movement and navigating in menus -as well as updated and newly configured Control Setting B for keyboard. Nothing new for gamepads. Therefore a lot of informative graphics in the UIs had to be changed (ie. signs in the tutorial levels, info graphics in Settings menu). Next part is about the PLAY menu's filters: Exlporation, Most Plays, Alphabetical etc. Recently Played and Liked Levels now occur among the other classic filters. Also Alphabetical is paged into three part: A-I, J-S, and S-Z. And as always some fixes and enhancement. Welcome to another juicy update! Firstly, if you like reading these updates, you might find the IndieDB devlog interesting. Here you have lengthier devlogs, more images and over 85 released articles all the way back to the very beginning of DASH in 2018.New keyboard control:Implemented WASD (W=up, A=left, S=down…

• Build 3001 is live! - 4 November 2025

  Build 3001 introduces a news feed that shows the latest entries in the world record table in the Leaderboard menu and in Pause Game menu. Here you can keep up with new records. This feature is already live on our Discord server, but the new generation of DASHers are not really using the server - therefore I put the same feed in-game. And it's giving the game a more "live" feel.The reason for putting it in the Leaderboard menu: it feels natural wanting to have an impression of which new records have been set/taken/stolen.The reason for putting it in the Pause Game menu: during runs you can pause to see if any other player is messing with your records or just if you're curious to know what other players are up to.Of course this feature only comes to life once more players are playing.Please leave any feedback you might feel would be valuable in the comments below.Main Menu:Moved the user…

• Build 3000 — DASH Faster, Smarter, Better! - 24 October 2025

  Welcome, speedrunners, level creators, and 2D lovers!It has been five years since an update came to life in the pre-Final Edition era. This major update brings lots of new features, optimizations, and fixes:Vertical moving platforms: By popular request from GGHallGamer, platforms can now move vertically as well as horizontally. Place several moving platforms next to each other to create a larger platform and open up new paths in your levels. But beware — heroes and enemies can be crushed if the platform reaches the ceiling!Moving spikes: Also requested by GGHallGamer, spike boxes can now move up, down, left, or right. This adds a whole new layer of challenge and excitement for both creating and running levels.New achievements: Hard mode, Expert mode, and EXTREME MODE! Complete levels with very low clear rates to unlock these elite achievements.Optimized Main Menu: The Main Menu has been…

• New update coming up - 26 September 2025

  DASHers! It has been an absolute thrill to witness the action during the first ten days since release.Many new runners have joined the game as well as a great deal of new levels fresh from the editors.A huge congratulations to the new #1 on the World Records Leaderboard GGHallGamer, who has been active on a daily basis and has strategically made the way to the top of the board. GG!GGHallGamer also inspired me to implement vertical moving platforms. I've been working steadily on the implementation and have had to deal with misbehaving slappers, spitters and sploders! This has taken a lot of time. To let the community know: I am currently working on the project solo - please be patient

• DASH: Final Edition - 10 September 2025

  Dear DASHers 💙DASH: Danger Action Speed Heroes began as a dream back in 2018: a wild, creative speedrunning platformer built for the community. In 2019 we entered Early Access. Since then many juicy updates, as well as hundreds of levels, streams, and crazy runs have shaped what DASH became.Now it’s time to say: 👉 DASH is leaving Early Access as the Final Edition - this will happen on September 17th 2025 👉 The game will be FREE for everyoneWhat this means:There might be new updates – but to be safe the official announcement is: DASH is “frozen in time.” This is due to uncertainty regarding whether the development is able to continue.The game will - for certain - remain as a living snapshot of indie history.Servers, Discord, and the community will stay alive as long as we can keep them running.We hope you’ll see Final Edition as a playground for speed, creativity, and fun.👉 Join our…

• NEW MULTIPLAYER GAME MODE + perfecting slopes! - 8 January 2020

  Dear DASHers. Today a new build is live. While there is only a few bug fixes and a nice new 'reversed' slope (basically an upside down slope to give new shapes to structures in levels) we are also introducing the first multiplayer mode in the DASHgame. But behold... you must be patient because there is still some way to go until the mode is all the way in the box! Build 2007; Early Access; Steam: - The currency and shop is still not available so players will not receive any gifts or medals yet. - The mode in BUILD 2007 is strictly for testing server and game compatibility! As mentioned there is no reward or visible log screen where you can overview contestants, rewards and all-over score. - You can't yet see your opponents. YET!! Our next priority (as soon as we can see that the server-to-game system is polished and properly look at by the DASHers and devs) is to include other players i…

• AUTUMN SALE: 75% OFF! (WE WANT MORE RUNNERS AND BUILDERS - 28 November 2019

  During December '19 (me) Duka and my man Leary will develop the last part of the DASHgame with a goal to release the final premium game January 2020. While we can't expose all details yet, the decision to work on competitive and multiplayer-focused designs is locked down. This is what all our production notes tell us, this is what you players tell us, and it is something that we ourselves ARE HUNGRY FOR! The game's price and game-economy will change, therefore we are now seeing a window where we can distribute the game for a low price (much lower price than our first assumption) - and hopefully with this discount be able to fund some of the work Dec/Jan. https://youtu.be/X7v9WaDV4N8 Without giving the full details, I can say as much as we have a very cool plan to be able to pipeline new players into the world, and avoid the scare of a fixed high price. DASH ON! - Jakob/Baby Duka

• DASH More Solid Than Ever! - 20 September 2019

  Hi DASHers! Welcome to a new update! As you all know the Slope tile was implemented in last update. However some natural bugs and small errors have been spotted by the community of bug-hunters - most of them are now addressed. Let's find some more :D Fixed script causing large levels to slow down the game speed. This was implemented in update 2006 due to new auto-tile scripts in slope objects. Now fixed so large levels should run smooth on all computers. Fixed error when checking for slopes’ mask when a crate was on the top of a “hill” Fixed error causing the cursor to delete other objects when deleted a tile Fixed error when placing two slope tiles next to each other causing a wrong sprite to be drawn. Now it’s not possible to place two slope tiles facing one another. There must be a flat ground tile in between. Attempt to fix memory leak(s) possibly appearing when respawning, going to…

• NEW UPDATE: Slopes Implemented - 6 September 2019

  BUILD 2006 IS LIVE ON STEAM! The update is live and ready to be tested and expored! It's DASH day again! With this new update you can experience a new feeling in the editor. The slope tile (in all tilesets) will allow for corners to be smooth, cool ramps to be built and new ways to play with the enemies. The missile ammo is also more explosive now, making it more interesting in chaotic and action-based levels. Launch the game and get ready to create the levels that will Though it required over 72 hours of extra math, testing and puzzles I finally made everything come together in this epic build which is going to be a game changer: Slope tiles unlocked - make levels with new dynamics, flows and challenges! Slopes allow you to flow over hills Sonic style and polish your cave or alien ship hall with smooth edges Sploders slide down slopes. Let them have a ride! Missiles now more explosive…

• First Patch Up: Major enhancements and fixes to the release build! - 19 June 2019

  This first patch to the Early Access build includes most important fixes which are major to the overall shape of the game. The collision and tile-placement error(s) are postponed for next patch: https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F33344919%2F64d0b6ddfa3b916a6a208a1d498511daff0edba1.gif Fixed crash caused by overstacking memory due to not deleting sprite being stored in memory. The game would crash after the Pause Menu (opened to Respawn) being opened hundreds of time, stacking up memory each time without clearing it. You can now Respawn with one push on the controller: hit the back/share button (the little button left to the logo on the controller) to instantly respawn! Prevented cheat: before this patch player could load level, change the tiles, set a record and leave without saving making it possible to basically upload a level which is unbeatable. This bu…
