Yume Nikki PS1.
Demo out NOW!
It contains two dream worlds to explore.

You can run it on a real PlayStation 1.

This is a fan game. I put a lot of love and care into it.
I hope you enjoy it.

Another dev stream done! And the level is almost finished, to boot! I'll change the skybox and add more decoration and tweaks off camera, so next week let's do something new! 🪐💚

Meet the fireplace kids.
Sullivan, Tourte, and Orbit.

Part of the intro, they'll likely be the first characters you see in Ix's full game.
