Have you ever had a dream where you're falling deeper and deeper scared and excited of what is down below? Experience the same feeling navigating your personal raccoon through his trippy dreams. Do you have what it takes to handle dreamy physics and uncover their true nature?

Notes

If you get stuck or for some other reason can't finish the game yourself, you can watch @eric-smith nailing it in his stream here: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1003785681?t=2h32m32s.

​Windows built messes up the initial menu screen position on load but it gets fixed after the first waking up. We recommend playing the browser version for a smoother experience.

#### Bug fixes:
* Adjusted sprite import settings to remove dithering on the edges.
* Adjusted the last tutorial message to explicitly ask players to hit Backspace. Deactivated all other inputs at that point to make sure that players complete the tutorial and get to the main game.
* Added "Skip tutorial" toggle to the menu screen for those whose game crashes when they hit Backpace so that they could still proceed to the main game.
* Adjusted sound effect triggers to be less regular and annoying.
* Adjusted the difficulty a bit to make the game easier to win and discover the ending.

Many thanks to those who reported these bugs and let me improve the game experience.

Enjoy the game and thank you for playing!
