Hi there, Just wanted to post an update on how the Dream development is going on the current schedule. I noticed some of you were getting a little concerned and frustrated about the lack of update since February and hopefully this post will clear up as much as possible. Since the middle of March we…
Hi Folks, Just wanted to post an update about Dream and where we are currently at with development stages. There is quite a lot to talk about so ill do my best to split it into sectioned paragraphs. Lack of Updates As many of you have noticed it has been quite a while ( October…
Just a short update this time – Nothing I can really post without spoiling the upcoming content so I thought I would write a brief description of how the Footstep sounds in Dream work.

With the Dream Rift Prototype release just around the corner, I thought I would write a short section about the process of porting Dream over to the Rift. As we have said many times, most features in Dream were developed with the Rift in mind; we want to create a truly immersive exploration game, and…
Happy New Year! Hope you all had a quick recovery from your hangovers 😉 Kicking things off, the new me! My name has changed :O I no longer have the surname ‘Sidebottom’. It’s going to be really strange to get used to, but I now go by ‘Ashley Stancill’. This is quite a big change for…
