Nice use of the theme. Remembering dreams is such an interesting concept. I like the hand drawn art style. I agree with other comments the hint feature is nice because I immediately forgot what my dream was about, just like in real life! There was a bit of stutter of the game when the tree would grow but no other issues. +1 for having an volume control

That was an interesting take on the theme. I have a pretty bad memory, so I'm glad there was the hint option lol.

That was a very interesting way to make the player create a dream and incorporate the branching wildcard element. The part where I have to memorize exposed my weakness, I have very poor memorization skills :D Well done !

Awesome interpretation of the theme :)

unique game idea well done!

Artwork is fantastic like painting on canvas. Concept matches the theme very well. To me music can be more enchanting to feel the sleepiness. Overall a great work!!!!

This is so cool!!! The eerie music, the fun and cryptic art style, the presentation... All of it was really cohesive! Your team really made something unique! Nice work!

Submitted

A literal take on the theme but a wonderfully unique implementation. Well done! The art and music really takes this to another level. Very polished!

I suggest taking a look at a card game named “Dream On!”. It is very similar to your game here! :P

- Theme:  Tie in was through the day and night cycle and typing out dreams

- Fun:  This is a creative way to gamify storytelling

- Controls: No feedback

- Graphics:  No feedback

- Audio:  Chill music to enjoy in the background

- A11y:  Volume slider at the bottom left of the menu

- Originality:  Just want to highlight again that this was a cool take at  a typing game that also helps people  practice storytelling and creative writing. Very cool!

Really like the song that's playing though this game. Gives a very relaxing vibe as you're retelling your dream. Felt like this game captured the phrase "rose-tented glasses" in playable form.
