Lucid

Lucid is an action-adventure JRPG about lucid dreaming!

PLOT

Welcome to Arcane Falls!

Follow Jacob, a 14 year high school freshman nerd about games, movies, and comics!

He’s your average kid, group of friends, school bully but soon after the school year starts, things don’t go so well. Fights, drama and chaos enter the school causing a hard environment to learn in.

THAT FIRST DREAM MIGHT JUST SEAL HIS FATE.

I'm hoping to release a demo at some point in late Q1 or mid Q2 of this 2025. The demo will be entirely real world and not lucid world.

When the game releases I will make a video series where I play the whole thing while talking about the making of certain parts.

FAQ:

Q1: Why is Lucid meant for over 12-13?

A1: Lucid has a lot more serious of a tone in moments that make it so if you really want to understand it, you should be maybe over 12. But you can still enjoy it if you're younger.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q2: When can we get some screenshots or a trailer for Lucid?

A2: Well, there IS a teaser trailer currently out right now you can watch here. I'd say expect screenshots more when the demo releases. BUT if you are that starved for content, I try to do a devlog every Saturday that shows off new features, music and designs for enemies!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q3: When will Lucid release?

A3: I'm not sure. Lucid is turning out to be bigger than I first expected. While the wait will be worth it, I will make a release date trailer once Lucid is entirely complete. There will be a trailer when each section of the game is done showing off new areas!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q4: Will Lucid be paid?

A4: No, that fact does pain me slightly due to the fact this amount of effort and hard work will be free, but there's always the chance of a Steam game or release in the future after tons of patches!

NOTES:

Lucid prides itself mainly on it's story and music. While I will try to make the battle system as fun as possible, it's not the main priority. So if you are looking for something more combat focused, I HIGHLY suggest you check these games out as they have more focus there along with story.
