changedThis has been a long time in the making. The first bits of gameplay and the first world concepts were drafted in early 2021! A lot of iteration, both with systems and visual styles, and eventually the game started to reveal itself.
changedYesterdreamt is a Metroidvania first, so a lot of focus on "utility-gated exploration" and fun movement mechanics. But it's cosmic horror-themed (hence launching during Steam Scream), so we're going for a slightly slower pacing, with deliberate player actions and a player character that will always need to be careful around enemies, even as they grow stronger and acquire magic spells.
changedSome of you may have noticed the demo going up yesterday. There was a rather quick report of a nasty bug that caused major framerate drops, so the game was updated today to give you hopefully a bug-free experience.

If you like our take on a "souls-like Metroidvania", please consider wishlisting the game! It will make sure you get notified when the game releases, and also helps to support our development.
