About Data Dream

Working away late into the night, a lone software developer dozes off and into a digital dream. A dream in which the many parts and processes of an everyday computer come to life in a bio-digital landscape. The harmony of this virtual realm begins to deteriorate as it comes under the attack of a polymorphic invader. It will fall into the hands of an intrepid, would-be adventurer to rectify the chaos that is being wrought upon his world.

With a control scheme designed for a gamepad, Data Dream is a 3rd person platformer in which players will need to use a combination of skill and intuition in order to overcome an array of challenges and puzzles.

✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's creative concept, surreal aesthetic, solid core platforming mechanics, and atmospheric soundtrack, with some highlighting satisfying boss encounters and puzzle design. However, opinions diverge sharply on difficulty and polish: some find the combat engaging and boss patterns learnable, while others criticize forced combat, unfair hitboxes, punishing difficulty spikes, and technical issues like poor macOS performance and occasional rendering problems. The story and voice acting are generally considered serviceable but unremarkable, and platforming sections receive mixe

This game is basically inFAMOUS: First Light, but way less polished (in terms of gameplay). Pros: - Good concept - Good core gameplay, but nothing you can't experience in other games (again, First Light most notably) - Decent OST Mid: - The story isn't boring, it's just... not that exciting, tbh. Same with the voices. Cons: - Forced combat is always a nono for me (for normal enemies I mean) - Some jumps are freaking annoying to make - Last but not least, I had to give up on the RAM boss (was it? the big guy with the axe? idk), waaaay too unfair and slow paced. Hitboxes suck everywhere too. Sometimes he'll take attacks, sometimes he won't, he can easily stun lock you with his axe throw, and the list goes on. And yeah, he just takes forever to kill. It's not fun, it's straight up tedious. Edit: I was able to kill that stupid boss above. Now in the second RAM level (the middle one) and it has a really stupid puzzle I can't figure out for the life of me. So yeah, that's me done unless someone tells me how to do it I guess. Overall I'd definitely say the game is at least worth a shot. That price point though... a bit too much imo. Go for it if you have some disposable cash I …

Great game! Fun mechanics, really good bosses, fun puzzles, and gameplay. I only encountered one quick bug that requited a restart, but other than that the game is really well polished and nothing seemed wrong with it. Honestly really enjoyed it. I liked the difficulty of the axe boss, him being a bit tough, but once you figured out his pattern you could take him down in no time! I've personally never played Spyro but I heard this game is similar to it/ inspired by it, so that makes me wanna go and play Spyro too! Anyways, i did also make a video on this game so if anyone is thinking about checking it out and wants to see why, here ya go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrazkvLO82A

Definitely recommend this one. Really cool and interesting 3D platformer in a surreal environment. If you love awesome and surreal environments / characters and good music then this one is for you. Also the ending was super awesome and left me feeling satisfied.

Probably the worst port to macOS. 20 minutes into the game I've realised that some objects simply don't render thus making the game unplayable. Really like the style and PS1 platformer atmosphere, but the technical side is a huge let down.

I thought i commented on this years ago when I got this game. I really did enjoy it. Like one of the comments it kind of was like second son but it was nice to have another game like that. I do not dislike it however i never finished it. I would still recommend this game for someone who wants to try something interesting and likes puzzles.

Excellent game deserving of much greater recognition! Fantastic aesthetic and use of lighting, great electronic soundtrack, and strong vibes of Tron and (if you're old enough to remember it) ReBoot. Saw some negativity about the story and voices in another review, but I found them spot on and much higher quality than I expected for what's essentially a small indie project. Strongly recommended and thanks for putting it out there!
