And you can follow us on Twitter (which will be updated soon) as well as here on tumblr!

It’s back, dreamers!  Welcome old and new to Dream Diary Jam, a game Jam all about creating fangames for the cult classic RPG Maker 2003 game Yume Nikki - and for the new YUME NIKKI ~Dream Diary~ as well.  The goal of this jam is to make a Yume Nikki fangame or demo of a fangame within 6 weeks time, starting on May 17th and ending on June 30th, the original Yume Nikki’s 15th (wow!) birthday. Your host this year are @pinkuboa & @pancakeproductions.

The Dream Diary Jam 3 Discord is now open!  

Hey dreamers, we’re planning a bit ahead for the jam again!  How long should the Dream Diary Jam be this year?  You can vote for multiple times!

Here are some of the maps I have worked on so far…

Grettings everyone.

The long promised screenshots y’all. There is still small details waiting to be added, but they will be! Enjoy this for a while!

Manda no Yume v0.02 has been released here.

v0.02 was meant to be a small update released a month or two after the 2017 Dream Diary Jam ended.

It has instead been over a year. The game has been remade multiple times since the jam version.

I’ve decided to split this update into two parts:

The first half (this one) is a remake with a minimal amount of new content added. Some content from previous versions is missing either from being cut or not being re-added yet.

The second half will be expanding on this one to add more effects, expand and polish maps, and fix outstanding issues.

There is no longer an NPC in the game that gives hints. For now I would consult a guide, I will be looking into this for the second half.

Returning Nightmares is an exploration adventure-horror game being developed in RPG Maker 2003, based off Yume Nikki (with dialogue & easier to navigate maps).  You play as Akira, a young man locked up in his own bedroom, exploring his dreams to remember the events that lead him to where he is now.  But some things are better left alone… 

It’s a goofy-er game that I made to get more familiar with the engine.  It’s a parody and a tribute to edgy games and hopefully entertaining whether you like dark games or not!  The demo currently has over 20 unique areas to explore and 12 memories to collect, along with a number of strange events and odd NPCs to find and interact with.  I’m aiming to have the demo released at the end of November.

Lastly, here’s a screenshot of Akira’s room!
