[@clownmoshpit2778]

@@ghostytrickster8458 I feel that man, everything turns into different cog’s in the same machine. All turning the same way for what feels like forever. Whenever the time arises for you that you have free time though, i find it’s important to get outside of your comfort zone. Whether it be hanging out with people you haven’t seen in a long time or visiting a pub and making new friends. Even if your introverted like me, the main way to break from the cycle is by surrounding yourself with new people/things.

[@ghostytrickster8458]

@@clownmoshpit2778 somehow I’m just now seeing this, but this means a lot. things have been pretty rough recently where every day just feels like a blur, but this reminded me to not get so caught up in the monotony of life and try to enjoy time doing things that make life worth living. sounds really cheesy but you’re absolutely right, discovering new things and people to spend time with is one of the few things I can convince myself to look forward to, but it’s also more than enough. thank you man, hope you have a great day/night wherever you are :)

[@Pudding404]

2kki is simply a look in someone other than Mado's dreams. An underrated gem, not of a fangame, but as it's own thing.

[@Larkatiel]

It's hard to believe Yume 2kki is my favorite game of all time. I've played through classic RPGs like EarthBound and Chrono Trigger, experienced critically acclaimed masterpieces like Symphony of the Night and Super Mario RPG, and my favorite game is a fangame to an already niche horror title.

[@Zuzuga1]

well, it was made by shit-ton amount of enthusiasts , so its hard to call 2ki niche or just a fan game

[@OperatorError0919]

How exactly does 2kki differ from the original? I tried playing Yuumi Nikki a few years ago and spent hours just walking around confusing environments with absolutely no goal or direction. I hate the feeling of bumbling around in circles waiting for something to happen. It's perfectly possible this game just isn't for me, but I love the RPG maker style, and some of them, like Hello Charlotte, are my favorite games of all time.

[@doubleicecream1302]

@@OperatorError0919 it's the same gameplay. unlike games like Hello Charlotte, a game which i thought was dope, it doesn't really have direction. The whole wonder to it is just getting lost and lost in this massive world and just exploring like crazy. Over time if you explore enough and try and interact with things enough you'll find many items and have to use these items. You really gotta be patient. That's why I know some people who play with a walkthrough.

[@monowavy]

@@OperatorError0919 yume nikki and most of its fangames can barely be called "games". They're more like interactive art, the whole point of the games are to explore and find things out alone - thinking about stuff and things along the way

edit: it's 2024, i'm not in the best position in life, but in this playlist i always seem to find myself again. gravitating in uncertainty, but never truly lost. these songs have the power to calm you down lol. old comment: somehow 2kki had this rep in our circle as a YN ripoff trying to plaster too many cooks into the game. but in this case, they really put that liberty of freedom & expression to good use, it was wrong for us to judge it so harshly back then. now i listen to all of this music and feel at peace. the soundtracks here are much more melodic, and portrays its own game's maps very well :3 a great collab with many many people in it

[@mimi.paloma_]

Commenting again just to say that I've listened to this playlist like, at least 200 times. It never fails to make me feel so calm, and it's the perfect soundtrack to write and sleep to. Genuinely so thankful to have had this playlist with me these past 2 years

[@M1D3N]

Forever grateful to yume 2kki for providing me with experiences and sensations more surreal than any other video game I've ever played

[@999a0s]

yume 2kki is such a crowning achievement. a project made by a bunch of completely separate, independent creators that comes together as a cohesive whole. a fan project that in my opinion transcends the original in scope and quality. for me yume 2kki shows how one of the most compelling parts of videogames as a medium isn't even gameplay, but the ability to create spaces that a player can explore and have agency in, immersing themselves in an alternate world. the gameplay systems in 2kki are paper thin, but it doesn't matter, because the environments and music ARE the game, and deeply immerse the player.

the real dreamcore.

[@indigowendigo8165]

Honestly, I was expecting more out of the Dreamcore/Weirdcore aesthetic, maybe mainly from all kinds of playlists similar to Lofi and the whole Liminal Space thing, but a lot of it is just cliche biblically accurate angel eyeball things, a lot of it is kind of lame to me, sadly. :p So yeah, I'd say this is kind of fitting. :?

​@@indigowendigo8165Have you ever seen the youtube series ENA? Now THATS a very crative and unique world. So much it's sometimes given its own asthetic; ENAWave. Though most would consider it closest to internetcore than weirdcore or dreamcore

ive been listening to this whole playlist since my stepdad passed away... Its heavenly.

[@Jugdjay]

I've spent my Sunday morning doing a long walk. I love wandering around aimlessly while looking at my surroundings, thinking about stuff, enjoying the moment... This time, I've done it while listening to this entire playlist. With the calmness, the silence due to doing this early on a Sunday morning, it most certainly made this a nice experience. It made me feel at peace... There's still stuff going on in my life around me, but that moment, those hours of walking with this playlist in my ears... Those were my little adventure in my own little world, away from everything around me. Even though it was just for a little while... that felt good :)
