How does your game fit the theme?
Dream Factory gives the player ALL the control they could ask for. We decided to do the theme justice by going with a game mechanic that leaves the player out of control because of too much control. Up to 35 player on one keyboard!

GOOD TO KNOW: We heard that some people experience some crash issues. But we found out that a simple restart seems to solve most of them. So we are hoping everything goes fine and that you can test our game :) Have a great week!
a very interesting core idea, but there seem to be some bugs in the way of it working properly.
Hi! Sorry to hear that (ㆆ_ㆆ). You mean regarding the main machanic, like the keypress-release thing itself, or regarding the game's rules?
Have a great day :)
It worked once but mostly keeps on crashing. Unfortunate because I did have fun playing it.
i'm very sorry to hear the first and very happy to hear the second part
Yo’,
Sorry but I couldn’t play your game, it keeps crashing after the “Select how many fingers you want to use for players”. I’m using itch.io app with sandbox mode so I don’t know if maybe that’s it?
Hi! I‘m really sorry to hear that. I have no experience with the itch.io app. But I can imagine its that or the sandbox mode. Have you tried a regular download and install?
Have a great day :)
This game i awesome!
It crashes a lot on my pc so I can't test a long time. But it's beautiful, the music is great. It should be great to specify our Keyboard... I'm playing it with AZERTY and when I switch to "qwerty" I must think about where is the key requested :)...
Hey Mardhol :)
Thank you so much for playing!
Regarding the Layout thing: apart from the on-screen keyboard in the setup screen simply "looking" wrong the game should work on all layouts the same. The mentioned on-screen keyboard during the setup screen is only there as a fancy visualisation while you enter the finger and player count. Apart from that you are free to use any layout. Or am I missing a thing then? I'm not sure how Unity handles AZERTY though :P
Regarding the crashes: I'm sorry to hear that :( We are not aware of such crash heavy bugs. Can you provide any information that might help?
UUuuuh wait. We might have an idea why the game crashes so often for you. Niki (dev) has the theory that both issues are coupled. Did you change your layout mid-game? Because this could cause the big issues.
As described in my previous comment: you could just leave your layout as is and play all swell in QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY..., since the factory just asks to e.g. "hold A", "release B", "hold Y" - it does make no difference where the keys are located.
Hope this helps :) Have a great week!
I love this game! I was jamming to the amazing music at the same time as trying to keep my dream factory alive. Simplistic and super effective! Great work!
Thank you so much bengles! It's so cool to hear you enjoy it :)
Fantastic, easy yet complex concept! Although it's not really covid-19 safe, I can imagine it being super fun with others :)
Thanks Huggarnn! :) great to hear. And about it being covid friendly: we thought the same :D but just had to give it a shot. Have a great day!
Keep at it :D
If you want to, try the game we made :3
