Dashy Sperm, yes, you didn’t read wrong, is a game with a human fertilisation back drop. Created by Daniel Truong, the creator of witty mobile games including iTrousers and Go Go Fast, brings another fun and challenging mobile game that easily slips into your schedule.
Much like the title suggests, Dashy Sperm is about getting your sperm into the egg by timing your shots. Each tap, sperms will fly out towards the egg. What makes the game interesting is that most of the time, players will only have one shot, depending on the game mode. In between the starting location of the sperm and the final goal, the egg, there will be many different moving obstacles that players will have to avoid by timing their shots carefully.
The game starts of fairly simple to build player’s confidence, but as players progress, the different game modes and increase of features and obstacle really challenges players and will often have them trying the same stage a couple of times just to get past all the obstacles in one go.
each stage of the game features a different theme and different game modes which keeps the game fresh or players even after playing for a long time. The pixelated graphics also adds to the creative touch of the game, making everything come together in quite a fun and dynamic way.
As if that wasn’t enough, Dashy Sperm also features a AR mode which, I have to say has, is oddly fun to play.
▍How it all started
After working at Radical Entertainment and Electronic Arts, Daniel started creating games independently, and for many years has created a portfolio of unique games with a whimsical theme that differentiates itself from other games (as you can probably tell from Dashy Sperm).
On April Fools day of 2017, Daniel took a break from his then current project and created a short demo of Dashy Sperm, which then didn’t even remotely have anything to do with sperms and eggs, as a fun idea. The game quickly picked up and Daniel decided to create a full game from that one demo. However, he wanted to make something that makes the game stand out from other games without compromising the simplistic control of the game, and so, Dashy Sperm was created. Using an edgy theme, the game separates itself from other games in the genre whilst retaining the simple easy-to-pick-up system.
Dashy Sperm is currently not available yet, but will be coming soon on mobile! Be sure to stay up to date on the game on www.danielmakesgames.com/
