About Recurring Dream

"Every night, in my dreams, I visit the mountain where it all happened. I keep coming back to this place again and again. To the same mountain where I lost you forever. In my dreams, you are still here. I'm trying to reach you. To be with you once again. I'll never stop trying."Recurring Dream is a short, atmospheric walking simulator that takes you on an emotional journey through a cold, majestic mountain lost in memory and longing. With every step you take, immerse yourself in a surreal landscape, where a deep and haunting story slowly unravels.

A Journey of Dreams and Loss

In Recurring Dream, you play as a traveller returning night after night to a familiar mountain, a place once filled with meaning and now clouded by grief and mystery. As you trek through snowy paths and mysterious environments, you will hear a heartfelt story unfold — a story of love, longing, and the struggle to find closure. Each moment bringing you closer to understanding the dreamlike world and the memories that tie you to it.

Atmospheric and Immersive

Explore a world of breathtaking sights and beautiful soundtracks designed to captivate and move you. Traverse the mountain terrain, walk across crumbling bridges, and discover paths among towering cliffs and gentle forests. The minimalist style and striking colour palette add to the otherworldly feeling - somewhere between dreams and reality.

Short and Powerful Experience

With a playtime of approximately 15-30 minutes, Recurring Dream is a compact and meaningful experience that aims to evoke strong emotions and leave a lasting impression. Perfect for those who want to experience a reflective, story-driven game in a single sitting. Explore at your own pace, soak in the ambience, and piece together the narrative as you venture to the heart of the mountain.

Game is a short narrative story, much like the store solicit says. The art style is charming in a simple yet vaguely unnatural way. Story is a fine little tale broken up and told through short voice tracks at certain points though the hike. If you want a story with notes of melancholy and hope and only have 10-15 minutes, you can do far worse. Note though, that I could not find any kind of accessibility settings, or any settings to speak of. Half of the game is walking, and half is audio logs with a soft background music. If you are hearing impaired, you'll miss out on half the game. The view sensitivity is extremely high as well. Which makes enjoying the landscape a minor annoyance as the slightest nudge of the mouse will send your view shooting off, with presumably the only fix being turning down your DPI manually.

This was brilliant I am glad I met you at church otherwise I would have never played this liminal masterpiece I am just wondering is this based off an actual dream you keep having so you made a game about it? I will definitely buy your next game when it releases in 2025 and I hope you grow in popularity as a game developer as it is my dream to do the same
