The Dream Machine

Wasn't sure if anyone had seen this, but it looks very interesting... an episodic adventure title made of clay!

That was a pretty cool demo. No ludicrous gamer logic involved. Just straightforward problem solving. Nice.

Saw this a few days ago, looks really interesting. The demo was great I like the flow of the puzzles, was nothing too hard or illogic but felt adventure gameish... I know not even a word lol.

I've played the demo also and enjoyed it muchly. Only thing that bugged me is, because it's designed in flash, you can't use the right mouse button and I keep wanting to click the right mouse button for reasons beyond me. Drives me crackers it does!

That was a very promising, atmospheric demo indeed. Before playing, I had been sceptical about using such a unique graphical style (far more reminiscent of The Dark Eye's stop-motion than of The Neverhood's, by the way) for such a seemingly down-to-earth premise (a young couple moves in together), but now I realise the plot is probably going to take a turn for the surreal pretty quickly. (I guess the title of the game should have clued me in. ) Hopefully not at the expense of interesting character interactions, because I'd rather like to see this personal angle explored, but the fact that the beginning seemed inspired by The Longest Journey and Gabriel Knight 1 makes me quite optimistic about that.

I'll be keeping an eye on this. Has anybody been trying the open beta?

I second what AFGNCAAP said: promising and atmospheric! Will definitely play this one.
And really cool to notice the game creators are two Swedish guys.
