hat’s a poor, outmoded robot to do? Just ride the conveyor belt all the
way to being decommissioned and the big scrapheap in the sky? Heck
no! Within the first 30 seconds of this artsy platformer you’re hacking
the mainframe and busting out of the factory in search of something more,
something better. The obstacles in your path are a little lacking but this
Dream’s sense of style is absolutely not. In fact, we’d trade the platforming
elements for just a few more of its muted robo-tableaus.
ell, this is just lovely. Inspired by their wee bairn telling them a tall tale
about a very determined pea, desperate to be burnt rather than
‘eated’, that only a child’s imagination could conjure, dear old Dad has
brought their little one’s vision to life. If the double act’s narration fails to melt
your heart, your ticker’s tougher than ours. Short and oh-so-sweet.It’s almost

his particular creator has a memorable
selection of Dreams under their belt
already, some of which have been
honoured at the Impy awards. We particularly
enjoyed this vertical 3D platformer, which
requires well-planned jumps due to disappearing
stages and features a ton of silly accessories to
spend your collectibles on. It’s not so much a
difficulty curve here as a difficulty spiral.hey really weren’t kidding with that level
description. With mazes for days, you
are a blue figure who cannot escape this
Dream’s apparent time loop – or, indeed, your
own permanently shocked expression. It’s a short
jaunt down varying interpretations of videogame
corridors, and perhaps ends a little too quickly.Creator: KeldBjones Creator: SlurmMacKenzie Creator: henryhopkinbrown
