Pretty good, reminds me of the movie Waking Life.

Neat idea!

I feel through the floor a few times, but I really like the graphics and the idea. I included it in my Ludum Dare 30 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/CHUuhEZvNWU

I wonder if I'll dream about ninjas after this...

(Is there any way to stop the evil spy? I thought I ran pretty fast, but still got the "end of the line")

Beautiful storytelling!

Great presentation, and interesting linked stories (great use of the theme). You did a lot in 48hrs here!

I like the adaptation of the theme. Love the subtle and not subtle gameplay changes. And also... who doesn't have nightmare about dinner dates escaping w/ bursting through the kitchen's inventory.

Great!

Nice concept! The take on the theme is very original; I would never have thought of it. The graphics are quite nice and the mood is good. You seem to have forgotten a few colliders in the desert level, but other than that, great game!

Lagging hard, but has potential.

It seems a couple people have had performance issues and falling-through-the-floor problems! I only tested this with Chrome, so I don't know if it'll be very stable on other WebGL browsers or computer configurations.

Yes, everything is connected! :D

I like how your game is slow but also fast and also how everybody can enjoy the dreams with their own style... good work with the theme!

Tried playing a couple of times, couldn't figure out the controls in the third one (ninjas in school etc). Apparently you can do a very high jump or wall jump or something, but that only occurred randomly and I couldn't control it.

I really enjoyed it. Nice take on the theme, very creative. Nice pixel art graphics and the story telling was really fun.
Pavel26 Aug 2014, 09:20
Great idea. I like the pixel art.

Brilliant incorporation of dreams, I thought about going with it but didn't know how. Well done!

Very interesting idea, and I really enjoyed the art style as well. It would have been especially cool if the gameplay changed a little too based on previous dreams, rather than just the visuals, but I can understand that being too much work.

I couldn't beat the "reminsce" level in any scenario, because the wall jump didn't seem to work a lot of the time.

Interesting idea! I would've like some music, and maybe a bit more of a game. Like, there wasn't really much to do in any of the dreams.

Still good though!

Interesting concept, though I got stuck in the Prince of Persia part.

Interesting interpretation of the theme, I like it!

But the desert world is somewhat broken for me. The player falls through the floor sometimes and ends up under the level on a blank screen.

Interesting concept. Would love to see more.

Nice game, interesting use of the theme.

Loved it. I liked the part with the Price of Percia, that brought back memories. For one man game it was done really really nice :)
