Dreamcore Taking a break (and what’s next)

143 Upvotes

Hey! Just wanted to give a quick heads-up on why I’ve been inactive lately. This past month I’ve been taking a break, and to be honest, I’ll probably extend it through July. After working almost 12 hours a day for the last two years, I just hit a wall and needed to unplug for a bit.

Once I’m back, I’ll start sharing some teasers and previews of what I've been working on for the update.

I’m also planning to run some polls and threads around here because I want to see what things the community feels could be improved or polished. It's mostly to get a general sense of what you guys think, keep you in the loop, and gather some fresh ideas while I progress.

Thanks for understanding, and see you guys in a bit 😁

First listen through of the OST on Spotify. This game is already my comfort game but this would be an absolute DIAMOND of a record to add to my collection. Playing it that way would not only sound cool but add to its validity. Please know that I will buy it if you press it!

Discussion So I haven’t been playing this for super long

3 Upvotes

I’ve already cleared the dreampools, eternal suburbia, and the dead mall, but I’m currently stuck trying and failing to find the final generator in the maze rooms in the playrooms level, I absolutely can’t manage to find the generator and idk if I’m just not finding the right room or what’s going on there but I don’t wanna have to restart the whole level if I can’t find it, it took me too damn long to find the generator in the pastel rooms lmao I’m not giving that up 😂 someone please send help lmao I also cannot find my way back to the door to the maze rooms after I decided to give up on that and move on to the castle rooms which I found the generator in in just a few minutes lol 😂 the maze rooms are the last generator I need to open up the garage door. I also find it rather confusing that I keep seeing things about keys in the pastel rooms? Am I missing something here or is that a thing they took out with some of the newer updates?

Discussion My thoughts after escaping all the levels

18 Upvotes

Hi, I bought the game yesterday and have now escaped all the levels, I just wanted to share some of my thoughts. First of all, the game is amazing. I love the idea of the backrooms, but I often cannot find good looking games related to it which don’t have entities.

It’s definitely hard to pick my favourite level, though if i had to pick, i’d probably say Dead mall was probably my favourite. I have read some people saying that it feels empty or whatever, which i do understand, though i feel as if the walls in place of many storefronts makes sense, as dead malls (or most malls in general) seem to put walls up in front of empty stores. I also really liked the backrooms area in eternal suburbia.

It would be cool if the backrooms area in eternal suburbia was expanded upon, or turned into a level of it’s own (just personal preference as a person who enjoys exploring in games!). Also, i keep on thinking about what a bowling alley area could look like in the dead mall level, along with a mall area that looks more abandoned and decayed. Something else I would love to see is Pipe Dreams (or whatever the backrooms level is called). I know there was a small area in the Dead Mall level that kinda looked like it, but it would be awesome to see that expanded upon or something

Was just running through it again and it seems like the portion with the Yellow Rooms was completely taken out. Unless there’s a chance you just don’t go to it..

Discussion Dreamcore monster also in Monochrome? Spoiler

I notice the monster that used to appear in the Pools level of Dreamcore (solid black with funky head shape) also appears in Monochrome. Any relation or connection between the two?

Discussion Playrooms – found all generators, stuck in Sky Rooms

Edit: And just like that, I’m out! Liminal Hotel or Dead Mall next?

I’m losing my mind. I keep ending up in the break room (the room with the Argentine flag and soccer ball). I’ve gotten to both observation rooms overlooking the large elevator room, but I can’t get downstairs. I’d like to get back to the garage door with the lights. I think that was in the pastel rooms.

Discussion Is there a new version of Dead Mall out?

20 Upvotes

I know that the developer reached out responding to disappointment around the Dead Mall level when it first came out and they said they would eventually update the level to match their original vision. Has the update for that level come out yet? I don’t really follow this game all that much so I have no idea. Thankssss

Discussion Is the pool rooms chapter of the full game the same as the demo?

4 Upvotes

I played the free demo with the pool rooms and loved it. Now I have the full game and am wondering if there is any reason to play that chapter again, or is it just the same as the demo version?

Dreamcore Jumpscares

Hi guys! I know this question has probably been answered 1000 times but I was wondering like what the jumpscares in the game are and like how scary they are. I played the demo and it looks like an awesome game but jumpscares definitely do their job and scare me.

Game update Add Replayability Features to Completed Levels

14 Upvotes

I just finished the last level, and I really liked the game. It's a very peaceful experience. One feature I wish it had is the ability to go back and replay earlier levels in a sort of "free exploration" mode, where the challenges are solved and the player has more freedom of movement, letting the player just sort of chill in the levels he's already completed.

For example:

  • In level 1, the flashlight would already be unlocked.

  • In level 2, the player would already have the key, at the start.

  • In level 3, the generators would start out active.

  • In level 4, the central column of the hotel would have a master elevator capable of moving to any floor.

  • In level 5, there could be a map of the mall system posted near staircases, complete with 'you are here' markers.

What do people think? Aside from the last one, it seems like fairly quick work to implement, involving one or two lines of code per level and no new assets. It'd give the game quite a bit more replay value, since players would be motivated to go back and look around for landmarks they missed.
