Dreamer World 1 Level 1

As science tells us, everyone dreams, regardless of whether they remember it the next morning or not. Dreams are a vital part of the sleeping process, although there are no scientific explanations for how they work or whether they have any meaning at all. Granted, they can sometimes help you remember certain things better, but they are not always pleasant.

Dreamer is a puzzle-platformer in which you play the role of a young boy exploring a variety of exquisite worlds, while also trying to make his way across obstacles by solving various puzzles. The game is designed to be both fun and challenging at the same time, but it’s worth noting that the puzzles are not very complicated, especially since it’s pretty obvious what you must do most of the time.

The physics engine is an important part of the equation as well, because most of the puzzles are based on it. As such, you have to push objects, drag them, or even use them as platforms in a variety of clever ways. You can also climb on ropes and use them to gain momentum for a jump, although this part is not very well optimized at the moment.

Some of the puzzles tend to become repetitive after a while, especially when it comes to pushing things around to reach a certain platform. Granted, sometimes there’s a combination of different gameplay mechanics, which makes things easier to enjoy. The controls are smooth and responsive, which is exactly what you want when each jump must be accurate.

As for the graphics, the 2D environments are actually quite engaging, even if they are weird and extremely colorful. The developers are promising that each level is going to be a different dream world, which means that the environments should be changing quite drastically. The sounds are pretty well-chosen as well, although there’s more work to be done in this regard.

Even if Dreamer is a bit rough when it comes to the puzzle mechanics and the physics engine, the idea is good, and it’s certainly worth improving. Thus, it would be nice to see more content sometime in the future.
