In recent months, we've been at work on porting DREAMERS to PC, and today we’re happy to launch our very first demo here on Steam, marking the beginning of this journey with all of you. This demo is set in the early phase of the game (though not right at the start), and we believe it captures the heart of DREAMERS. You'll get to meet two of the three protagonists - the Girl and the Boy - and ex…
We wanted to create a dark game and hide it behind a joyful facade. This is DREAMERS and you probably already saw the colorful trailers we posted so far. Today we have something unexpected for you all: a dark teaser that fully represents the mood of the game without any make-up. Also, listen to track 14 of DREAMERS OST named A Path Beyond, composed by Irina Slepchenko, Svetlana Khanina and orch…
Big news! Today we're launching our first Kickstarter campaign for DREAMERS Collector's Edition, and it'll only last 30 days. What's in it for you?

It's all about nostalgia, just like our game. Your support means a lot to us!…

Adventures are better with friends. Some levels in DREAMERS feature collaborative single-player split-screen gameplay. Share your controller with a friend and solve puzzles together. Previously I wrote this article introducing the split-screen feature of some levels of DREAMERS. Today I can add more images of another location in the game that can be explored in this way.

Develop, upload and boom. Online! If there is one thing that I really love about Steam is how clear everything is. Not that I dislike other platforms, on the contrary, I like them very much. Steam, however, never fails in the offer for both the developers and the players. One example is the possibility to distribute the soundtrack of our upcoming game, DREAMERS, to anybody who may be interested…

DREAMERS Original Soundtrack features nearly two hours of orchestral and ambient music, created by an international team: composed by Svetlana Khanina and Irina Slepchenko from Russia and orchestrated by Marku…
Here we go, we just finished preparing the trophies for you to unlock while enjoying the world of DREAMERS. From classics to hardcore trophies, we think we have made good work and we estimate about 15 hours of gameplay to complete them. A core idea of DREAMERS is that "life goes on" and for this reason, there are many, many things missable in the game. Usually, we don't refer to them as missabl…
Hello, everyone! Did you know that we used motion capture to make our characters have more fluid and realistic movements? Even if the low-poly graphic is not photo-realistic on purpose, we still wanted to give our players an immersive game experience, so we decided to use mocap for the animation style. For example, in our cinematic scenes like the balloon one, you could see how we made our actr…
Today we are talking about DREAMERS step system! We used our PlaySys Interaction Framework and the inverse-kinematics technique to make it look as accurate to reality as possible. But it will be Luca, DREAMERS' game designer and main developer, to explain the details. So, Luca, how was the PlaySys Interaction Framework involved in the steps' programming? Thank you Federica for this interview. I…
Hello, everyone! Today we are talking about our back-and-forth dialogues: in DREAMERS, when you interact with the NPCs, you will start conversations that always include an answer from one of the main three characters. The NPCs don't start talking to say something one-directional where you just have to listen and nod passively, but they engage with you in equal, bi-directional and interesting co…
While we are still working on the localization of our game into multiple languages, we wanted to show you backstage content from one of the first phases of the development of our game: concepts. Here for you are some inspirational artworks for DREAMERS' mountain region! They served as an inspiration and reference to our 3D modelers to visualize and create the maps and quests while the developer…
Howdy, fellow dreamers! Just passing by to say hi and share with you some great news: the game will finally be released this Autumn, by the end of the year! Are you excited as much as we are? We're working to fix some minor bugs and to incorporate all dialogues' translations in order to make our game enjoyable for everyone! As a matter of fact, DREAMERS will be released in English, Italian, Rus…
As you know, DREAMERS is a story of friendship and friends always support each other in their adventures. That is why we designed several split-screen multi-character levels and puzzles for our game. Below you can find some in-game screens of one of those levels.
Last year we showcased a short demo of DREAMERS on a well know console and got a set of great feedback. One recurring feedback was that the players were not fully aware of their position in the gaming area, and the surroundings . As a developer, this is easy to miss, since I know every place in the game and somehow I can play the game without watching the screen, but for a person who is new to…
Recently I started using this News section and I was describing why we decided to postpone the release of DREAMERS. One of my favorite aspects of our game is that not many things are explained and we want you to discover them. We imagine DREAMERS like one of these deferred experiences where we - at first - plan and hide stuff, and then you - when everything is ready - go on and discover them. T…
