Explore lucid dreams with a spooky camera
Visually,Afterdreamlooks great, with eerily creepy 2D stylized pixel art. Players use a special camera to navigate a ghastly mansion that blurs the line between reality and lucid dreaming. The camera will allow you to interact with hidden objects only visible through the lens of the camera.
I love the atmosphere ofAfterdream. It’s hard to pull off a scary game using pixel art, but Makkonen definitely knows what he’s doing. Also, with it being somewhat of a side-scroller,Afterdreamseems honestly perfect for consoles. I’m curious to see where the story can go with this one, because I know his former games left quite an impact.
Afterdreamwill release sometime in 2023 on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
