Next week marks the Steam debut of Humble Heart's XBLA darling, Dust: An Elysian Tail (http://www.joystiq.com/game/dust-an-elysian-tail). Dean Dodrill, animator and creator of Dust, took to Twitter (https://twitter.com/NoogyTweet/status/335460463863271424) to announce the May 24 launch date; though there is currently no Steam product page.
Dust: An Elysian Tail is a 2D action platformer in the vein of Metroid and Castlevania, featuring beautiful hand-drawn sprites throughout. Aside from being visually appealing, it's also a delight - a game our review (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/08/20/dust-an-elysian-tail-review-dusting-off-a-classic-formula/) said "doesn't do much to innovate the platform-adventure sub-genre, but it does manage to look and play beautifully throughout, and sometimes that's enough."http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)Dust: An Elysian Tail scampers onto Steam May 24 (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/18/dust-an-elysian-tail-scampers-onto-steam-may-24/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Sat, 18 May 2013 01:00:00 EST.
