About the Game

Imagine you're a kid back in the 90s. You woke up early because you're excited you're going to play your favorite JRPG!

Daydream is all you would expect from the JRPGs of yore, plus voice acting and original music to give life to the story and characters.

When their captain goes missing, our young heroes decide to embark on a journey that will lead them to discover the chilling truth about themselves, their unresolved past and uncertain future.
Expect an unexpected ending that will throw you head over heels into an existential crisis.

I've been working on this game for more than 10 years now. I'm proud to finally release it into the world, so you can get to know the characters that have been with me for such a long time.

-10 to 20 hours of gameplay
-Unique abilities that allow for creative strategies and play styles, especially in late game
-Challenging boss fights and optional uber boss fights that will require everything at your disposal to conquer
-"Materia" system for character customization
-Creature summons that get more powerful the more you unlock abilities and get good at timing your button presses (similar to Legend of Dragoon)
-Full voice acting during cutscenes
-Amazing original music!
-NOT yet another RPGMaker game, this was made from scratch using Unity and Tiled
