IF THE DREAM IS REAL TO YOU, IT IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR!
Accounting student Macy is down on her luck and out of her mind. But, her life of hum-drum meets an abrupt interruption at the visit of a mysterious firefly. In her place, a witch-like spirit bearing her likeness wakes up in Esperanto, a strange world manifested from the hearts and dreams of all. With an explosive broom in tow, our hero sets out to discover the mysteries of Esperanto and find her home - wherever it may be.
SomnaBuster is a 2D platformer set across Esperanto, the vibrant dreamworld. Use your powers to chase the sky and mend the breeze.
REV UP YOUR BROOM
Rock the signature Broomburst ability! Launch yourself like a cannonball, then go pogo-mode to bounce off enemies, walls, and anything that itches your trigger finger. Levels are designed to be played at any number of speeds and skill levels.
GRAB THE WORLD BY ITS HORNS
Esperanto is a garden blooming with unique environmental objects and hazards. Ride across growing vines, knock your head against trumpet-shaped tunnels, or summon a stylus to draw the road ahead. There are over 2 dozen ways for the world to move you around - so get the lead out, or lose your head.
DUST KNUCKLES WITH NE'ER-DO-WELL-ERS
Face off against imposing bosses at the end of each world - trade blows with a delusional DJ, or outrun a rampaging ice monster. Experience state of the art 'when-you-hit-them-enough-times, they-shout-'ack-ooch-eef'-and-fall-over' programming technologies.
