Theme interpretation
We interpreted theme as the moon itself being involved in dreams. The character must get to the moon (later chapters to be written...scope had to be scaled down) to save Dreamland.

My five-year-old and I just played through this story together.  His message to the author:  "You should finish it.  I want to hear the end!"

This was so super cute.  I loved the artwork, too.  Keep up the good work, and please let us know if the story gets continued some day!

Thanks so much! Me and my daughter are starting to explore where to take the story next.

I'm really intrigued by this story I wish you'd been able to finish it! The art is awesome too, fantastic job overall!

it’s on my mind to finish or at least explore it more. not sure if it will be more interactive fiction or maybe more rpg like game?

Submitted

I think keep going with interactive fiction for now - you've got a great story hook and that's more than enough to keep people playing! I've found that adding RPG elements makes it hard to finish because you want to add so many different paths for the player :D
