THE DEVIL’S CAFE
Play the game!In March of 2019, I suddenly woke up from a disturbing dream. This was one of those semi-lucid dreams where I could more or less understand what was going on and more or less act upon the environment I found myself in. I was just conscious enough to understand it as a dream but not to the point where I could control the sense of frenzy and panic that this creepy cat instilled in me. When I woke up, I felt the urge to write it all down before I forgot it all.
This game is a journey based off of it. If you’re interested, here’s a project playlist.
I couldn’t tell you where the themes in this story come from, especially not the religious ones. However, a common thread among many dreams/nightmares I have is this constant sense of unease and this juxtaposition between cute and chilling. I tried to get it come across here.
I’ve said enough — hope you enjoy playing.
