Release Date: September 30, 2021
An action platformer that is a continuation of Dimension Drive. In Aeon Drive, we play the role of Jackelyne, who travels through stages full of traps, teleporting through obstacles and constantly fighting against time, trying to find the faulty elements of a machine for flexing dimensions.
Aeon Drive is an action platformer developed by the independent team of 2Awesome Studio. The game continues the story that began in a shmup published in 2018 under the title Dimension Drive.
The main heroine of Aeon Drive is a space pilot known from the game Dimension Drive named Jackelyne. The heroine goes to cyberpunk Barcelona, where she has to find the faulty elements of the machine used to flex the dimensions; without them, the space-time structure of the universe can be shaken.
At Aeon Drive, we observe the action from the side-scroll perspective. The game consists of more than eighty levels, among which we can find places associated with Barcelona, headed by Las Ramblas and Park Güell, or even Arc de Triomf and Torre Glories. As we walk through them, we jump on platforms and avoid countless traps, lasers, spikes and circular saws, we destroy selected field obstacles with the help of the heroine's great sword, and we teleport ourselves at short distances, making use of a special dagger. This is complicated by the fact that we have a limited time to complete a given stage; however, we can increase the stock with the help of the capsules we get along the way. As our actions are judged by the scoring system, which encourages us to polish our skills and improve the results, the game is characterized by high replayability.
Aeon Drive has colourful two-dimensional graphics made in pixel art technique. The game has been equipped with streaming tools.

Rapid Reviews UK: 4 / 5 by Joseph Barrood
Aeon Drive is a high-octane speed-running platformer. I played as Jackelyne (Jack) and travelled through the same thirty seconds repeatedly, trying to rebuild my rocket ship. This gameplay loop seems tedious, but each thirty-second period takes place on a different level, making each period different from the last. Is this race against time worth your effort? Find out in this Rapid Review.
TheGamer: 4.5 / 5 by Sam Watanuki
If cyberpunk was the genre of 2020, time loops are undoubtedly the flavor of the second half of 2021. Aeon Drive subtly throws its pixelated hat into the proverbial zeitgeist with its fast-paced, pinpoint-accurate platforming that is as addicting and, at times, satisfyingly frustrating as any quality masocore title out there. Aeon Drive is a speedrunner's dream, offering hours of replayability for completionists and those looking to have their name atop online leaderboards.
Nintendo Life: 9 / 10 by Oliver Reynolds
Aeon Drive isn't quite up there with modern platforming classics like Celeste, but it's pretty darn close nevertheless. While its narrative won't win any awards, this is simply a supporting backdrop to the fantastic gameplay on offer. Bolstered by solid performance and minimal loading screens, racing through the levels feels exhilarating as you jump, slide, and teleport your way through the maze-like environments. With an online leaderboard to satisfy your competitive nature and added multiplayer to boot, Aeon Drive is a speedrunning triumph that absolutely deserves your attention.
