To mark this special day, Game Designer and Producer João Escarlate wanted to share a personal message about the journey behind Dreamcards and what its release means to the team.
Today I woke up incredibly happy, because this is such a special day: the release of Dreamcards! This release marks the completion of a project that has been years in the making. In 2022, this game was my graduation project. Since then, my dear colleagues at Soneka Games and I have worked together to turn this project into reality.
Dreamcards is a love letter to the roguelike deckbuilder genre, a blend of everything we love about these games and our own personal experiences, resulting in a game that tells a beautiful story, both through its imagery and its gameplay.
I invite you all to give the game a try. Live a week in Self's shoes and face your Inner Monsters on this journey into the depths of the unconscious.
With love,
João Escarlate, Game Designer and Producer at Soneka Games
