A downloadable game for Windows

-- this game is also available on steam: steam link. Some people are still downloading it here, so I decided to upload last version as of 2016-11-06 for a better experience. There are lots of improvements, bug fixes, and an additionnal small game mode : "puzzle mode" --


"A dead world's dream" is a 2D platformer.

You play as a pacifist alien exploring its world.
The progression is non-linear. From a central hub (the village), choose the level you want to explore or return to. You will unlock new levels by finding energy cubes, and powerups by bringing back small lifeforms.

The game lasts 2 to 5 hours, depending on your aim.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you're stuck in the game, need tips, or if you can't find a specific bonus or a specy !
