Hypnagogia 無限の夢 Boundless Dreams by sodaraptor

A wonderous world of dreams awaits you.

I saw an LSD Dream Simulator post earlier and it reminded me of this incredible game I picked up in a bundle a few years ago on itch.io - it’s difficult to describe what makes this great without giving away too much about the story, so I’ll say this: if you like the idea of a surrealist PSX-style exploration game with puzzles and a litttttle bit of non-linear progression between levels, it’s so worth $10. Without giving any details out, you’re basically a stranger that’s wandering through various dream worlds trying to solve the problems within while progressing toward an overall end-goal that you don’t fully understand. The aesthetic changes between levels, and the emotional tone of the story of each zone is pretty unique; some have simple problems with simple solutions, some have hungry gods that have been trapped in a dark pit for eons and would anything for a meal, ya feel? This is me saying to you: try it.

I’ve got an idea for a story coming together, may find myself writing again sometime soon - in the meantime, here’s my mock up of the potential cover art for the book that I haven’t written yet. Because they always make the cover for the story first, right? Right??

if I had one far-fetched prediction to make about the increasingly heavy dystopia that we spiral toward, it would be this: average grocery foods become coveted luxury commodities, mcdonalds starts doing soylent green, and new vape technology allows us to mimic authentic jambalaya flavor in vape format. it’s the American Condition, babe.
