Description

Void Stranger is a surreal, story-rich Sokoban-style puzzle game. There's a good not-quite-review of it over on PC Gamer if you want more information before deciding whether it's your cup of tea. I'm a few hours in so far and it's a very odd experience, but I'm enjoying it!

Thank yous are always welcome, but if you'd like to answer a question instead: what's an interesting dream you remember having?

I've heard some interesting things about this game and I've had it on my wishlist for a while. I think that I want to go into this game knowing as little as possible. Thanks for the chance.

Thanks for the giveaway. The game was mentioned in one of my favourite podcasts, talking about the meta depth of it and how satisfying it was, So looking forward it goes cheap.

I usually listen to 2 podcast where they mostly talk about indie games, but they're both in Spanish (sorry!):

If you have any recommendation for English speaking podcasts that would be amazing too.

I recently dreamed my mother, who is not particularly interested in the subject in real life, decided to start a public library specifically for tabletop RPG books.

I dream. A lot. Mostly nightmares sadly. But sometimes I have these crazy dreams. A dream got pinned once in a chat, I'll paste that one because it's among the more epic dreams I had.

"Okay, listen; last night I had dream I could place on my top five-list of best dreams ever.
Before that, just a tiny digression, I am a dreamer, a very vivid dreamer. It is for the most part donkey balls since I have struggled with night terrors from childhood. But sometimes, in some rare ocasions, these dream are truly magnificent.

I won't go in great details about every nooks and crannies of my dreams, but I can go for the heart of it. It was a musical dream. I- I.. I made a musical in my dream! And it's the second time I've ever done so in such a huge demeanor. (A tiny bit more on that later)

I made stages, props, everything was aligned perfectly, and I sang my heart out - all while showing people around in a strange world filled with music and living scenes that just pumped out. It was all so fluid. And not to mention cool, it was fucking awesome.

It was a tragedy, it was filled with love; it was filled with life and death. It was very human.

While I try to wrap my head around it all I can feel a lot of the details slips through my fingers, but I remember trying to escape an inevitable death.
Waiting for a bus alongside a dusin of others fearing for their lives. Every bus that drove past was already full, this went on for a while. The deafening sound of something horrible approaching hit like a wall of mist.

scene shift

Found a bus, but the mood was different, and I couldn't see anyone I recognized - until I saw a familiar face. It turned ghastly evil when it tried to pierce my soul with its eyes.
Trying to spew lies and keep reminding me about what an awful human being I am, and what a waste of time I had ever been knowing. The rain started to pour onto the windows of the bus.
The world turned blue. I was unable to utter a single word, but that left the ghostly figure bewildered and it faded into the seat while looking pathetic and sad - leaving me to everything else that started to arise around me.

Oh, everything was in turmoil and I had to solve everything. People wanting to kill themselves on one side of me - and people trying to kill others on the other side.
And this being a musical and all; of course I was in control of powers not known to humankind. I was saving people left and right from violence, and I was showing the hopeless people that life was worth living.
I inspired; I helped; I drained myself of whatever the fuck I had in me so things would yet again return to normal - and the calmness came.

Here's comes the parts that keeps getting more hazy the more I think of it, someone wanting to do something daring - but impossible. A perfect photoshot of a Siren, in a steep waterfall with strong currents.
I immidiately knew this person would die trying, and I made up a song about friendship and whatever rose-colored topic that was necessary to stop this person from making their last mistake.

change of scene

I was a director, a singing one at that; showing people my latest and brightest idea. It was dinosaurs. What the hell. Dinosaurs. People were amazed, while I was enthralling and showing them all my future plans of creating my
own Jurassic Park Musical.

Then my alarm clock went off and I desperately wanted to go back. I wasn't finished, my dream was still right there, I didn't get to finish writing the song! Joke's on me, I can't remember a single line of text,
but it was brilliant.

And my head kept going; Aerosmith - Dream On.
Not a song I would normally listen to, not a song I've heard in years even, but that was the song that would now tie this dream to my first ever musical dream. Probably 10 years ago. An already made song.

I'll keep it short about my first ever dream like this. It was a haunted house, and everyone - including me, were dressed up as monsters. We were all singing and dancing to ABBA - Lay All Your Love on Me.

Which is a banging song, mind you - but yet another song I don't normally listen to or have heard that often in my life."
