So i have been working on my very own Yume Nikki rip-off for for a while now and i thought i'd share it with Uboachan. It's about 50% done, doesn't have title screen and a name for the "effects" for example. But it's still playable (hopefully). Feel free to try it out and bash me for wasting your time.http://www.mediafire.com/?a38c8vmq388ftnv Last edited 10/09/23(Thu)01:19.

Also, the game is a bit large, mainly because of the music, do you prefer 8 bit music or real (bigger) music? Last edited 10/09/22(Wed)08:56.

The game is made in RPG Maker XP so having that is probably a must. Dunno if the RTP is enough. Might be, might not be. Last edited 10/09/22(Wed)08:57.

It's certainly well put together as far as I can see. Dunno if you made the music or not but I can't fault you since one of my favorite games uses music not originally composed by the author and you made some good selections. It kind of feels alright, but at the same time...songs that aren't short loops don't feel quite as right.
I'm currently playing through the mansion and the 'catacombs' area underneath of it. I do enjoy the fog of war effect and the jumping puzzles, although I feel more like a feminine Indiana Jones than I do a dreamer, at the moment. The music is great, of course, but 175 megabytes is quite large. Some of that music would be just as effective if it were a smaller loop.

>>5617Sadly im not a good composer, i can barely play "twinkle twinkle little star" on the piano.>>5619I guess that's kinda true for that area, don't worry though, not many areas like that. If you enjoyed it i guess it's alright though. I'm not sure about what to do about the music, it would make me kinda sad to butcher someone elses work by shortening them. I'll leave it like this for now.

>>5620Grab Acid Express from Sony's website, find or create some ambient loops, add in a few other sound effects and you have a basic song for use. It allows you to use software MIDI input as well, so you don't have to be a composer to simply fiddle around until you get it right playing by ear.Also, when I tried to save my progress (I had the mask and cat effect), the game blew up. It did save some of the data, but some bits were garbled and trying to load that save file also blew the game up.

>>5621I have acually been using acid pro a few years ago, the music i made turned out kinda shitty though. I might give it a try again sometime. Thanks for the tip.The save issue is new to me, i'll take a look at it. Mind showing a screenshot of the error or uploading the save? Last edited 10/09/22(Wed)16:49.

I had an issue where saving caused the game to break. When I tried to reload the save it gave me an end of file error and crashed.
This is the error in particular that I got. Again, I had the mask and the cat effect when I did this.
>>5627Yep, that's the one I got too.
>>5627>>5628http://www.mediafire.com/?6sa5kxkqbsk57vuPut this in the "Data" Folder, it should fix the problem. The old save can't be fixed sadly so you would have to make a new game. Also updated main download. Last edited 10/09/23(Thu)01:19.

Ah, I think there's a bug with the flasher guy in the second grassy map after taking the exit from the bottom most area. He just stood there and did nothing and I was stuck and had to Alt F4Works just fine if I approach him from the bottom, though, it's just when I approach him from above.

Bah, I found another place where it's possible to get stuck.
>>5635>>5636I'll try fixing those until i make another version.
So i have been playtesting a little and found quite a few bugs, a few of which have been mentioned and a lot which haven't. Also took the advice to make my own short little loops as music (in magix), which made the game pretty much half the size (80mb). This release should actually be playable, no gamebreaking bugs as far as i know. Enjoy:http://www.mediafire.com/?t23s2yfd3lct251

>>5650The download isn't working. It tries to start but then refuses to start. Other mediafire stuff works, so there's something wrong with this or something.
>>5655Hmm, it worked fine when I downloaded it earlier.EDIT: Just tried it now and it seems to be ok. Last edited 10/09/25(Sat)17:48.

Alrighty time for another release. I'm probably putting more time than what is good for me on this. I removed a few maps i did'nt like, like the map with fog of war for example, it didn't really serve a purpose and it was kinda dull. Tweaked a few other maps and added stuff.Anyway, enjoy.http://www.mediafire.com/?i1h9kzi2q2hg16s

Well this is genuinely fun to play and explore! When I saw the sprite I expected low quality, but this game is actually kind of amazing.I can't wait to play it when it's done.Ah, one thing; game froze when the flasher guy, uh...flashed me.

>>5695 Glad you like it! So what i'm currently doing is making a game that you can play on your computer when you are dreaming, it's going to be a (very) random event, and will have a little something to do with the main story. You will be able to chose between two characters and the game will play out a bit differently depending on which you chose. One of the characters is the one pictured. Last edited 10/10/06(Wed)14:30.

Well while I played to try it out I got stuck here.
Fangame nr. 301 updated! Added a lot to old areas and added new ones to ofcourse. I kinda like polishing old ones, it's a lot of fun finding stuff to improve. Also added a few effects and... other stuff. Tell me what you think! Also picture is of all the effects i made so far. I might keep it at this for a while until i made stuff that you can actually use a few of the effects for (the axe replaces the ugly stick when you find it btw, you need the stick to get to the axe)http://www.mediafire.com/?1ao2vov5c093j97

Time for yet another release! This one is probably the one i like the most so far. I kinda felt bad with the other ones but i feel like its finally shaping up a little. I removed and reworked 2 of the areas that you go to from the "hub", i kinda felt that they sucked. I'd say it makes the game feel alot more coherent. Also removed a few effects, stick and crystal and some other stuff. So yeah... i feel alot better releasing this one. Probably gonna rework a few other areas i dislike until next version to. Anyway, enough blabbering. Here's the game for the three people that's going to play it:http://www.mediafire.com/?c7rplur3nb2sybb
