Editorial overview
What it is
Journey through the drawings, paintings and diary entries of one man's life in this narrative-fuelled platformer, rendered in the power of pencil! Drawn Before features challenging platforming in a wide variety of hand-drawn levels, where each area feels like a new, nostalgic discovery.
The premise
Play as a pencil-sketched character and journey through hand-drawn levels in this story-based platformer. Explore sketches, paintings, and diary entries to reveal the story of one ordinary man’s life through the 80s, 90s and 00s.
A narrative-based, single player adventure with a focus on environmental variety, story, and challenge.
Simple and intuitive controls - move, jump, dash, and a few other surprises here and there.
Regular checkpoints throughout areas, with instant respawns. Game saves at the start of each new level.
Zero skill-trees, unlockables, or purchasable items. Just raw, honest platforming (with the occasional power up of course).
Original music, composed with care for each level of the game.
