I like the mechanics and it was quite a fun game. I think the only problem is that sometimes when switching to sleep mode I get stuck in the walls, but otherwise I think it was a very cool game!

Love the idea of traversing the levels in your dream as well in order to unlock certain areas and change things. We actually had a similar idea with that. I really appreciate that, although the players physical position gets reset on death, any progress or changes in the level do not. That was really nice. I got pretty far but unfortunately, at some point my character glitched into the floor and I wasn't able to move or sleep so I had to stop. I think the levels were pretty interesting and used the mechanic in a nice variety of ways to where it didn't get boring. The wall jumping seemed a little inconsistent which was probably my biggest frustration I ran into. I couldn't tell if I was meant to do a tic-tac back and forth, or just spam up one side. Sometimes one worked, sometimes the other. Also, sometimes I would just be able to jump much further in my dream than normal, I wasn't too sure why. I was able to do it on purpose sometimes and solved a few levels with it, so maybe it's intentional. I really enjoyed the level where I had to push myself past the walls, and then the one where I pushed myself through the spikes and Z's. I think there is a ton of potential in this idea and I hope you keep going with it. Overall though, I think is a pretty good game with a nice core gameplay loop. A bit of polishing and this could be really great. Well done!

I loved the art style and the gameplay! There’s one bug: when I get stuck between the real body and something else, I can’t switch.

This was a really cool take on the theme! I liked the idea of being able to switch between characters to do different things :D I did get a little stuck at the start when trying to reach the high-up lever but that might just have been a skill issue.

I find the core loop really interesting. I like switching between the dream world and the real world, it’s very original! Maybe it could use some music, but it’s a great game!

Developer

Thanks! Yeah I should've added some royalty free music but was stubborn and wanted to try make some myself, though it run out of time before y could try to do it

Amazing game! I liked the dual control thingy where you control the other character in the second map! There might be some croping issues tho since I cound still see through the corners of the screen 💀💀

Besides that, Amazing game!

would’ve liked an indicator for a win when you reach the bed, as i wandered around for like 5 minutes trying to find out how to win after i reached the bed.

would’ve also liked some music. other than that, good game!

Interesting mechanic, liked the character sprite pjs. Character felt pretty fast and slidy and multiple jumps wasn't immediately obvious to me.

Eyy, this looks pretty good! We are slightly similar, that's neat! REALLY wished there was audio for immersion. Nice one!

Developer

Game is kinda confusing but the idea itself is really cool
