Anatomy of a Dream
Beneath every dream there is a hum. Most people never hear it. The signal is only getting louder.
A door that should lead somewhere ordinary. It doesn't.
Anatomy of a Dream is a cinematic psychological horror game set in the Dreamscape - the ancient place every dream quietly runs on. Everyone passes over it in sleep without noticing. A rare few can't stop hearing the hum underneath. At the edge of sleep, in a place worn thin by years of dreaming, an ordinary door stops leading where it should. Inside, hallways, pools, hotels, homes, and open hills are rebuilt from memory - almost right. The longer you stay, the more the mask slips. Someone was here before. What he left behind gets harder to read.
The Signal Is Only Getting Louder
Three rules
we don't break
Atmosphere over Action
No hand-holding. No HUD. Tension is built through space, light, and the things you don't see. The room is the antagonist.
Memory as Geometry
Every space is copied from somewhere real - by something that doesn't quite understand what it's copying. Familiar first. Wrong the longer you look.
No Jump Scares
We don't startle you with cheap tricks. We let dread settle in slowly, the way a bad dream does. By the end, you won't remember when it started.
