Hypnagogia is a 2020 first-person exploration game developed by sodaraptor as a game jam title for the 2020 LSDJAM. Influenced by other nostalgia-fueled low-polygon-count games inspired by the aesthetics of iconic 90s consoles such as the Dreamcast and PlayStation, Hypnagogia takes players on a short but intriguing journey through various worlds inspired by real dreams. You, the Dreamer, enter a world where reality ends and dreams begin, a place created from the essence of joyful fantasies, twisted nightmares, and the stranger places in-between. To wake up, you must get to the end of each of the eight dream worlds and collect the red crystals, with Gogi the dream protector, in the form of a cute bunny, to guide you along. Each world is a small area where you must navigate, speaking with dream denizens and usually having to complete a Fetch Quest to open the way to the crystal.In 2021, a more expansive follow-up game and loose sequel called Hypnagogia 無��夢 Boundless Dreams was released. In it, Gogi is kidnapped by a mysterious shadow, with the Dream Crystal shattering, dispersing the shards throughout the dream worlds. The Dreamer is called upon by Hypno, who has taken the role of guardian in Gogi's absence, to recover the shards again as she watches over the nexus. As nightmares begin to corrupt the dreamscape, your adventures through the realm of fantasies may take an unexpected turn...Like the original game, Boundless Dreams is split up into eight main worlds; however, there are also several secret worlds that can be found. You also have the ability to make choices when speaking to NPCs, though this has little effect on your progress.Hypnagogia and its sequel Boundless Dreams are available for purchase and download on Windows from Itch.io, and Boundless Dreams is additionally available on Steam. | |

Dream Weaver | |
Hypnagogia (Video Game) / int_125a7a4e | comment |
Dream Weaver: It's heavily implied that Gogi is not just the guardian of the Dreamer's memories, but also an All-Powerful Bystander in the dreamscape who doesn't interfere with the Dreamer's journey. Justified, as he wants them to grow and develop, and only gets involved if they are in any real danger. | |

Hypnagogia (Video Game) / int_2bc48235 | comment |
Dream Apocalypse: The nightmares of the first game attempt to keep the Dreamer from ever waking up. Gogi of course has none of it, and grows large to protect the Dreamer's path to the Dream Crystal and waking world. The nightmares swear they'll capture the Dreamer next time. | |

Kindhearted Cat Lover: The Dreamer is implied to be one in the first game, as some of their fondest memories were being surrounded by cats in a visit to a Japanese Shinto shrine. These manifest in the dream world as friendly Cat Folk. | |

Slippy-Slidey Ice World | |
Hypnagogia (Video Game) / int_5914d5dd | comment |
The sidestory of a character from the Ice/Desert World is a cautionary tale of meddling in events that you don't fully understand. Whether you think you're changing things for the better (or worse), because of the butterfly effect and our limited knowledge of the future, there may be unforeseen consequences for even the most well-intentioned plans. Dusty sought to use his red crystal to permanently change the horrible desert weather to nice, cool snow, but ended up creating a never-ending winter that slowly killed his people. | |

Permanently Missable Content: It's entirely possible to miss the paths to the hidden levels that contain the Lava World, Desert World, Nightmare School, and Candy World. However, after completing the entire game, there's a dream hub which allows each level to be replayed, so if you missed a secret the first time around you can always come back for another go. | |

Despair Event Horizon: What triggers the plot of the sequel is that the Dreamer can no longer bear a harsh, cruel reality where the goodness of beliefs, people, and society are on the evident decline.

Swallowed Whole: What happens to the Dreamer when they foolishly release an evil sea deity who was sealed away for threatening to swallow the whole world from its oceanic prison. Of course, it proceeds to consume the entire dreamscape, and the Dreamer along with it. Fortunately, they can escape her belly and return to the dream nexus via a Dream Shard. | |

Diegetic Interface: The Dreamer acquires one when donning the alien diving suit in the Sunken World update for Boundless Dreams. When they foolishly dive down to crushing depths, it even starts malfunctioning, and the helmet's glass begins to crack | |

Cosmic Keystone: The Dream Crystal. It's essentially a metaphorical representation of the core of the Dreamer's mind, so of course it fulfills this trope, as it's the beating heart of the dreamscape, the nexus of all worlds connecting conscious and subconscious realms. This is also why the nightmares are so desperate to seize it. | |
