About the game:
You play as Tieface, a character who exists only within the dreams of The Man. Your goal is to prevent The Man from waking up, as Tieface will die if he does. The game is made up of 15 levels, each representing a different dream.

As you navigate through the dream world, you must avoid being seen by The Man and manipulate objects and creatures around you to keep the dream looking normal and mundane. However, be prepared for the unexpected, as strange and surreal monsters may appear at any moment.

The game is made with hand-painted watercolor artwork by solo game developer Alex Klexber. It is a top-down roguelite game with special abilities, objects and creatures collection, and vibrant, psychedelic art.

Don't Wake God is a unique and challenging game that will keep you on your toes as you try to keep The Man asleep and Tieface alive.

90/100 I love this kind of oneiric/surrealist games even if the gameplay is lackluster, it's still an enjoyable short story.

Cool art style and simple yet effective concept, I had to stop playing because my touch pad refused to cooperate 5 levels in but it was an enjoyable time.

You got something real good, there ! Just some more meat on this bone and it will be perfect, even in such a saturated gendra !

The backstory/concept of the game is quite interesting and is backed up by appropriate artwork. Gameplay feels a bit more frantic than maybe it should due to clumsy controls for the core actions, but overall a simple, playable game that works.
