Damn, these stuff are looking great! Can't wait for 2020 and the release. If you need music for your game, hit me up! I'd be glad to work in it for free
https://youtu.be/tll7AuK8wG0 Hey! I enjoyed the game and did a little review of my thoughts and ideas that no one asked for lol. Hope it helps a little or you at least enjoy it
Looks interesting.
Cool looking game. I can see why a controller is recommended, but mine will be delivered between Nov. 4 and 7. So at this point, I'll certainly be looking forward to the full game.
my part 2, loved it!
A surreal, Binding of Isaac-style Hack and Slash, players battle a nightmarish depression that lives in a young woman’s subconscious.

As we enter the last 2 days of our Kickstarter campaign, we wanted to sneak in another cross-over.

We've added "Johann's Blade" from Spleen to our demo. Check out the gorgeous title from our friends over at @PamplemousseDev!
If you thought our demo's "Isolation" boss was intense, wait until you see what we have in store for "Fear" ... Here's a preview of the updated model.
Just 3 days remain to back our Kickstarter. Tell your friends: https://kickstarter.com/projects/afterburnerstudios/dreamscaper/
We decided we want to immortalize some of our closest indie game friends inside of Dreamscaper!
Today we have released an update to our free demo that allows you to find "Eden Beam", inspired by the incredible grid-based battles in @OneStepFromEden.
One of the first things designed for the game was a mock-up of the Dreamfall sequence in After Effects.
Here's Part 2 of our "look back" on the progress we've made on Dreamscaper over the last year of development:

We hope you've enjoyed exploring both The Hometown and The Campground dream levels in our free demo. @paulsvoboda 
is hard at work crafting our third Dreamscape, The City, which will be one of the other levels available to explore at launch in early 2020.
We're blown away by your overwhelming support over the last 20 days. We'd like to invite you into our time machine so that we can take a look at how Dreamscaper has evolved over its 1 year of development:
