“Band together to solve puzzles and fight off hellish threats,” say developers Melting Parrot. “The more Daps you gather, the stronger the pack will become, but beware: Daps are not immune to infection. Linger too long in the wrong place and the pack will turn on itself, with horrific consequences.”
Dap’s got quite a look to it—maze-y trees and spookily blurred cattails and big glowing mushrooms and all. You can catch that, and a look at some of its combat, down here in Dap’s release trailer.

The trailer and Dap’s store page are a little light on exactly how that combat works, but it looks to be a ranged projectile situation. It appears that you’ll be hurling little balls of light at baddies with some backup from your pack of Daps.
Alice B gave Dap’s demo a try in February and called it one of thebest Steam Fest demosfor that month’s event. “You speak to other Daps and convince them to follow you in a big group through a swampy forest that is dark and full of terrors,” she says. “Some of those terrors are Daps that have been infected with bad spores, and they become very aggressive and sprint at you, shrieking, from the trees. Part action, part horror, all Dap. I do not like it. It is good.”
