dreamweb-common - Common files used by dreamweb
- Description:
This package contains common files used by dreamweb.
Ryan, a bartender from a dystopian future can't sleep peacefully
for months. His nights are sequences of nightmares and strange
dreams, days with frequent black-outs with strange visions, until
one night a figure in monk attire appears to him, and tells him the
story of the seven evil ones, uniting to destroy to Dreamweb, the
only barrier between the world and darkness. The monk makes a
proposition: Ryan becomes the "deliverer": the one who would keep
the Dreamweb safe by killing those who try to destroy it.
Descending into paranoia and just wanting dreams to stop, Ryan
accepts the mission, then wakes up in a puddle of cold sweat, next
to his beloved girlfriend in her house, and late for work. Again.
DreamWeb is a top-down adventure game set in a gritty futuristic
dystopian city. Each location takes only a small portion of the
screen without panning (except an optional small zoom window in the
corner that follows the cursor), with the player interacting with
objects and people by simply clicking them. Ryan has a limited
inventory space, and as a lot of objects can be picked up (many
without any use), the player must rationalize what might be useful
and what just serves as filler.
Dialogue is straightforward, with no options, but still required
to advance in the game (to find new locations, for instance). In
situations where many adventure games usually feature an indirect
approach to solve a problem, Ryan often faces himself with
situations where it's "killed or be killed", which result in deaths
(sometimes of innocents).
