thanks, those look interesting. although i'm more looking for single player games with stories.

Don't have one

I don't know why you can't emulate PS1 games with Duckstation but I'll recommend Klonoa: Door to Phantomile for other anons anyway.

Starts out as a lighthearted Kirby-esque platformer with a cool jump and grab mechanic. Has a surprisingly decent story which becomes more dark and strange as you progress through the game. Definitely has that low-poly/sprite based dream feeling with a lot of atmosphere that toes the line between comfy and spooky.

I (OP) am not the "can't play PS1" guy. Post games for whatever system you like. Speaking of - thanks for the suggestion, looks pretty neat.

The metroid games.

The Kingdom Hearts series although it gets not retro as time goes on obviously but if you just buy the story so far collection you get most of them anyways. Or pirate /buy the epic games store PCreleases.

Its extremely dream like and a coming of age kind of thing.

Chrono Cross too, and Chrono Trigger but its not weird like Cross.

Probably some final fantasies especially 8

Oops dropped picture

Not retro but OFF is a pretty bizarre game that goes from being unnerving to fucking nightmarish

Duckstation
>Night into dreams
>Pandemonium

thanks

Yeah, this is a good example honestly. But the series just sucks after the first one. I don't see any point in bothering with any of the sequels.

What in the fuck? Did people finally realise what makes KH1 so good?

i wish I could remember the dream better. It was like the majoras mask ending, except everything was sort of "cosier" and closer together, like an isometric JRPG or something. it also had an intense weird atmosphere, i cant describe it, but it was the end of the game/stort and there was some magical thing happening or something. its funny how you can have these intense feelings in dreams that you don't seem to get in real life and can't really describe afterwards.

sorry, by majoras mask ending, I mean the bit when you go up into the moon. or similar to that. it was an end of game apocalyptic sort of thing and I think a moon was involved. it was 100% based on the MM scene I mentioned though.

Have you played the legacy of lain series?

>>8184479
Have you played the legacy of kain series?

>>8188172

those look kind of boring but I'll add them to the list to check out

I kind of want to start building some 3D environments based on some ideas/feelings from dreams. Places like there area I mentioned on OP, or sort of old fashioned towns/cities, old buildings... Not sure if I need to learn blender just for that or if it could be something easier. Doesn't have to be photo realistic, so maybe something like sketchup or crocotile.

although I think it should be something that can do animation well. animation seems like it's important for getting across certain feelings.

but maybe 2d art would be okay.
Mother/Undertake did well with 2D art.

would also need music I guess.

The gameplay in 2FM is really good, but yeah the story sucks.

People have always said that the strength of KH1 is the fact that Sora's journey is actually very close to a Disney movie in tone and atmosphere.
