Oh man. I had soo many spyro dreams as a kid (and a few recently, yay!). A lot of them were new levels/homeworlds that I really want to draw some day... The latest one I had a month or so ago was really stressful tbh. There was a hidden portal I think in Sunrise Spring called Blackened Boughs or something. The sky was an intense red sunset and the whole level was gliding from one giant burnt branch to another, no music, no ground. No enemies but it felt like you had to keep moving or else!
sounds super surreal and ominous but also i love the idea of a level like that!
its really weird like whenever dreams about something lighthearted and fun have something kind of scary and sinister inserted into it (that’s happened to me with animal crossing LOL..)
a really cool idea for a spyro game would be for spyro to make it through to like one of the last bosses late in the game, then return back to an early homeworld and see a sinister portal emerge that has like, a super spiked difficulty and has a really weird vibe much like in your dream (like when you go back to zone 0 and meet sugar in OFF!!)
hmmmmm i really like that dream thanks for sending it
