I shared this on reddit earlier, but wanted to drop it in here as well. I've got a ton more than what I'm showing below (several other characters done, interior and exterior environments nearly complete). I was honestly planning on holding it all back until I finished the game, but kinda feel like I might miss out a bit on the zeitgeist of the early release hype. Not to mention with all the animation left for me to do, it's still got months to bake in the oven.

HOLY SHIET.

I had avoided the Galaxy Cadet 2020 because I thought it was just a simple recreation of Galaga. But jesus christ, I did NOT expected that. If someone hasn't played it yet, go and check it.

Why don't you sit down and play a nice video game? Music by @Phreakerz

Does anyone know if the assets are in game to build a homespace to look like your cardboard ship from LittleBigPlanet?

Playing this Silent Hills Dream right now and I'm astounded at how someone made this shit in a few days, but if the stuff from early access carried over I can see it. I'm also surprised to see that you can put in voice acting. I wonder how that works.

Oh wow, this was my Hail Mary 'I'm sure this'll never happen, but here's hoping' wish for someone to make!

I was watching someone's YT compilation of arcade games made in Dreams, and it hit me how this is going to become an unbelievable retro repository. Fuck me, what a thing.

Edit; I also had a query about logging into indreams.me from mobile. The 'Sign In' button just takes me to the new player page, offering ways to buy the game. Is there a certain point I need to get to from within the game in order for this to work?

I access PSN fine from this device. Tried clearing cache anyway but it made no difference. Maybe I need to access it via desktop browser first? IDK ...

I have zero artistic ability and game design knowledge.

I'm pretty much the same (a writer/creative, but no artistic ability).

Please keep me posted on your experiences with this. I'm very curious about it but have always found in-game tools for building/creating stuff to be cumbersome and ridiculously time consuming.

Nothing. Just faff about and have fun. Just smeering and colouring in shapes is therapeutic in itself. Also taking an empty environment, and just throwing lots of random assets together. Shrek, Sonic, Mario, and a trampoline make for good times.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but Move controllers are back on Amazon UK for like £70 back order for the 7th March, if anyone has been looking for them.

According to the Dreams website, i spent 12 hours on it since i bought it on saturday. I haven't played any game yet, just checking out the audio-visual category mostly. I still have a few audio-visuals in my queue but i think i'll check out the campaign now and then jump into a few user created games.

On the audio-visual side, i think the creations from Bracord impress me the most so far.

Yeah ok I think I'm buying this tonight :)
Didn't know about the inDreams site, how does it work, can I browse the site and select stuff to be added to my ingame "inventory"?

Comic Sands

Comic Sands is a surreal odyssey through different dimensions, in which you'll literally evolve from 2D to 3D. Made during the 2018 Train Jam, as we travelled across America from Chicago to San Francisco.

This one I think was done on a train jam? So a few of the devs working together but in a short space of time. They've unpicked it a bit on previous streams showing how some of the camera stuff works.

This is the kind of dream I wish they'd release as remixable so we can dig around a bit

That looks great.

Lots of well animated chars, animals etc are very important. People can use them for their projects and that will be good for the overall quality of many Dreams.

I spent part of the other night creating a large collection of high quality vehicles, from sports cars to sci fi stuff and even a very lovely looking low poly art Starfox ship.

Some folks were asking ahout detailed cars, so I'll publish the collection soon after I've furrher organized the layout of said collection :)

I actually have a collection started of my favorite memes remade in Dreams lol. Maybe I'll publish it, though some of them arent the best quality... maybe i can divide it up visually.

I have my old move's and camera from ps3 days laying around, maybe I'll give it a try. the game has been raising my interest more and more....

You need the stereoscopic PS4 camera to use the Move wands on a PS4.

if anyone sees themselves getting into Dreams VR creation / play might be better to spring for a bundle. Especially when the bundles go on sale; you can get the Moves, camera, and headset for as low as $200 (usually with games, too!)

I wish I had moves, I'd learn to use them just because rescaling/adjusting soft blend/looseness seems so much easier it's not even funny. Unfortunately €80 + whatever the camera costs is too rich for my blood for one game (on a console I'm going to replace once the ps5 hits). Really hoping Media Molecule throws us ds4 users a bone and somehow finds a way to enable rescaling using the left+right stick without having to go into a menu. Like I wish I could hold like L1+R1 in sculpt mode and basically use the left stick to adjust scale vertically and horizontally and the right stick to adjust the depth of a primitive. I personally really don't enjoy hunting for the pixel where my arrow will turn into the direction I want to scale in.

Move just has better shortcuts to do things

But ds4 is still good If you love building on a grid.

But still a good investment on it.

You just cost me £70 ...

Thanks though sincerely; I've been circling sadly around eBay and wondering whether £90 for 'sort of new-ish' is really my sweet spot ...

And to answer my own question from this morning: I've just realised this is because so far I've only used Dreams on my girlfriend's PS4 account rather than my own ^^;
