• #13 DevBlog: Slowly Aiming for a Bullseye – 2025 Year in Review - 29 December 2025

  DreamScript’s development continued at a steady pace throughout the year. We’re no longer adding any big, explosive new features. Instead, the focus has been on polishing what is already there. A lot of work has gone into the game’s visuals, and we’re happy to say that some of the worlds are now starting to actually look inviting.For the first time, we have release-ready levels. The screenshot below shows the direction of the game’s visual style and how we want DreamScript to look at release. There is still a lot of work left to bring all levels to this quality. This includes more asset placement, lighting work, and visual effects polish. The road ahead is still long, but the direction is clear.Next year, we’ll continue along the same proven path—moving forward in small but steady steps.We want to thank everyone who has followed the project, read the blog, or given feedback during the y…

• #12 DevBlog: Making waves and staying current - 13 July 2025

  It’s a privilege to be developing beach-themed environments at the peak of summer. It almost feels like you don’t even need a vacation. And with the continuous graphical updates, it’s like your skin starts burning just by looking at the screen!With this short update, we’d like to remind you that DreamScript is still actively in development and share a sunny picture from the game world. This blog keeps you updated as the development progresses. DreamScript will be released when the time is right – but for now, we’re glad that we are working on some autumn-themed maps too.

• #11 DevBlog: Five years of development and the era of artificial intelligence - 1 March 2025

  DreamScript belongs to the genre of experimental puzzle games. This genre is an excellent choice for a small development team struggling to compete for players' time and attention against larger studios. Since we can't outdo others, we try to approach things differently. In DreamScript, the player both plays and programs the game at the same time. This game mechanic enables a wide variety of puzzles, creates humorous chaos, and also teaches programming. While this puzzle game concept isn’t entirely unique, we haven't come across other games that do the same from a first-person perspective. Now, as DreamScript enters its sixth year of development, it seems wise to reassess the game’s position in the market. When we started this project back in 2020, we had no idea that development would stretch this long. Over the past five years, both the world and the gaming industry have changed signi…

• #10 DevBlog: End of year progress update 2024 - 6 December 2024

  It's that time of year again when we have to swallow our pride and admit that DreamScript won’t be ready this year either, a tradition we'd rather not continue. However, it's been a while since we've shared any updates on our progress, so here we are to address some burning questions. Why hasn't DreamScript been released yet? To put it simply, DreamScript’s worlds aren’t finished yet. At the start of the year, we began overhauling the game's five distinct worlds by adding themed assets and expanding their overall scope. The goal is to create a more immersive experience, but unfortunately, the work is still ongoing. When will DreamScript be finished? DreamScript will be finished when all the worlds reach the same high standard. We’ve already set a consistent standard that the early worlds follow, but we want the entire game to achieve that same quality. We can’t predict exactly when this…

• #9 DevBlog: The Finnish Cultural Foundation continues supporting DreamScript - 1 March 2024

  We are pleased to announce that the Finnish Cultural Foundation has decided to continue funding DreamScript’s development. Our team is grateful for the recognition DreamScript has received and for the Finnish Cultural Foundation's daring support of video game art. Thanks to the funding, we have the opportunity to finalize the project and keep DreamScript free and accessible to everyone. Now, we have even better conditions to focus on our work. Currently, we are enhancing DreamScript's visual design and improving the player experience. Furthermore, a new game mode is in development, which will increase DreamScript's longevity. At the moment, we do not have any new information regarding the release date, but rest assured that DreamScript is in better shape than ever, and development continues steadfastly. We thank you once again for your patience and will return with updates as soon as we…

• #8 DevBlog: New gameplay video and screenshots! - 1 August 2023

  DreamScript's store page hasn't reflected the current state of the game for a long time. Today, we fixed that by releasing a new gameplay video and updating old screenshots. Now you'll get a better understanding of the world and atmosphere that DreamScript offers. The gameplay video showcases an early segment of DreamScript and provides just a glimpse of the scenarios that players will encounter during the adventure. We hope the new footage conveys how much effort our team has put into creating an engaging world and the best possible gaming experience just for you. The unfortunate part of this update is that we have to delay DreamScript's release to next year. Time and time again we have learned that the only certain thing in game development is uncertainty. DreamScript's concept is full of potential, which is why we keep coming up with new ideas to enhance the experience even further.…

• #7 DevBlog: Loading patience… - 1 February 2023

  And here we go again! At the end of 2022, it seemed like we could announce DreamScript’s final release date sometime in February or March. However, polishing the game to have all around professional and consistent quality takes much longer than we expected. Having learned from the experience, we are not ready to give you a new release window just yet. Good news is that the development stays active and we are ready to do whatever it takes to finish the project. With DreamScript’s experimental gameplay, we know we have something unique on our hands. We hope to have better news in a couple of months. Until then, we remain grateful for your support and patience. If you have any questions, come say hello to us on the forum. We are always happy to hear your thoughts about the game. Thanks in advance and stay tuned for more news soon!

• #6 DevBlog: End of the year progress update - 1 December 2022

  At the end of the year 2022, DreamScript is feature complete but still in the polishing stage of the development. This stage includes playtesting, bug fixing and level decoration. To guarantee the quality of our game, we are postponing DreamScript’s release to early 2023. As much as we hate delays, it's more important to release DreamScript with care. We set the final scope of the game at the beginning of 2022. Our team estimated that we would finish DreamScript by the end of the year, and we weren’t far off considering that the game is now fully playable from start to finish with some extra features like the speedrun mode. However, playtesting and bug fixing is something we take seriously. Besides polishing, our next goals include updating the game’s store page with new trailers and screenshots, shift focus on marketing and decide on the final release date. After three years of develop…

• #5 DevBlog: Game features revealed! - 6 October 2022

  DreamScript has reached the polishing stage of the development. That means we are ready to reveal the final features of the game. Hooray! Here is the feature list: - 2-5 hours long single player story campaign - 18 levels - 6 different environments - Steam achievements - Hidden collectibles - Speedrun mode and challenges - Programming guide - Steam Cloud save We still need a few months of development time to make sure that DreamScript meets our quality standards. An updated gameplay video, new trailer and the final release date will be revealed once we are absolutely certain that the game is ready for release. We want to deliver the best version of the DreamScript from day one! While we continue to test our game, please leave your questions on the game’s discussion section. We are happy to tell you more about our little programming adventure! Especially we'd love to hear what you expect…

• #4 DevBlog: Full throttle ahead! - 17 February 2022

  DreamScript’s development is ramping up towards the end. We have polished already existing content and added lots of new features and levels. On top of that, we have outsourced external playtesting for a better overall experience for our players. All in all, development remains active and we are in a good place right now in terms of finishing our game. The most important part is that DreamScript’s scope is now established and we have set the goals we want to achieve with the game. With these goals in mind, we have updated DreamScript’s release date to Q4 of 2022. There is a lot we could bring up regarding DreamScript’s added features and the final length of the game. However, for the moment we find it more appropriate to disclose the features closer to the release. Anyhow, we will keep you as informed as possible during the final throttle! Once more, we want to thank everyone who has su…

• #3 DevBlog: What the duck is going on? - 30 November 2021

  Winning the Bit1 2021 game competition was a huge opportunity for us. We got a vast amount of encouraging feedback and lots of great advice on how to move forward with the project. Our development team agrees that we want to take DreamScript and its core concept to the next level. That means additional features, better usability and more overall polish. Unfortunately, to achieve our goals, we have to delay DreamScript’s release to next year. The extra development time is spent to increase the quality and length of the final product. In the meanwhile, we have a new trailer on display here at the Steam store page. We are confident that the trailer conveys the vision we have for DreamScript. To learn more about the game and its release date, add DreamScript to your wishlist. We will have more information available in the coming months. Thank you for your continuous support and see you in 2…

• #2 DevBlog: Letting the ducks out! - 29 May 2021

  This week we got an outstanding reminder why you should show off your game whenever it is possible. This is because DreamScript won first prize in Bit1 - Finnish game development contest for students. The judges described our game as follows: “DreamScript appeals to many audiences and the team has good plans for the future of the game. With this game, the team got right something that has been tried many times before. DreamScript makes learning fun and it’s a beautiful game.” You can learn more about the contest and other participated games from Bit1 Winners Page. We want to thank the organizers for the one of a kind opportunity and for the valuable feedback. We are also excited to show DreamScript to larger audiences very soon. But for now, see you on the beach!

• #1 DevBlog: About the design - 1 April 2021

  "Combine the power of dreams and programming!" That is cool catch phrase, but in reality, game design is never straightforward. At heart, DreamScript is quite regular first person puzzle game - find your way to the level exit, rinse and repeat. But player's ability to reprogram his/her environment gives it fun and unique twist. During the development of DreamScript, there has been three core elements that we have had to balance: 1. Fun elements: Shrink yourself, spawn stuff, get crazy with the code! Overall story that keeps the player motivated and immersed in the game world 2. Puzzle elements: Interesting challenges Steadily increasing difficulty curve Make the player feel smart 3. Educational elements: Teach real programming concepts to the player Make programming feel less complicated and scary With limited resources, there is never perfect balance or perfect game. Nevertheless, with…

• Progression Update - March 2021 - 26 February 2021

  Wacky world of DreamScript is still under construction. But don't worry! There will be monthly progression updates until the game's final release later this year. In the meantime, add DreamScript to your wishlist and leave your questions to the discussion section. Your feedback and ideas are always appreciated! We have more to show you very soon! Stay tuned!
