Dive into a surreal dream where sanity blurs. Armed with only a gun and fragmented memories, face indescribable horrors in this infinite Roguelite nightmare. When you pull the trigger, are you killing monsters or memories? Find the 'exit'—if it even exists.......
Dream of Origin
SteamAwake in a crumbling dreamscape. You can’t remember who you are or why you’ve come. Memories are shattered, fear takes form, and reality keeps shifting. The only thing you can do is search, fight, and escape—before the dream ends.
This is a first-person single-player shooter (PVE) set in a dream world. Players will explore, gather resources, and combat nightmarish entities in an ever-changing dream environment, aiming to escape before the dream collapses completely. Each dream is a random trial, and each escape brings you closer to the truth.
Dreams do not lie. It’s just that you’re afraid to face the truth.
🔍 Search Every dreamscape is procedurally generated. Search for weapon remnants, dream energy, and memory fragments. Explore hidden layers of the dream and piece together the broken narrative.
⚔️ Combat Experience realistic shooting mechanics combined with surreal dream abilities. Enemies are "Nightmares"—entities born from fear, obsession, and guilt. Enhance your senses, warp space, or freeze reality temporarily using dream energy.
🏃 Escape Dreams are not endless. As time passes, the environment distorts, enemies grow stronger, and logic warps. Find an exit or a consciousness recovery point to escape and retain what you've gathered. Fail, and you’ll awaken—only fragments of your memories may remain.
🌀 Dream Collapse System: The longer you stay, the more the environment distorts, with visuals and physics breaking down.
🧩 Memory Fragments System: Collect fragments to unlock truths about yourself and the dream world.
💀 Nightmare Layers: Different layers of the dream have unique rules and ecological logic.
🔁 Cycle of Dreams: Every dream entry is different, and every escape alters the dream's laws.
“Light doesn’t always come from the sun; sometimes, it comes from the dream you almost forgot.”
The beauty and terror of the dream world coexist. You’ll traverse void cities, floating staircases, inverted water surfaces, and endless doors. Every scene in the dream reflects a projection of your inner world.
