I'll be posting pics at first but hopefully we'll be getting an influx of other content that I'll be posting here. If you happen to find anything, post it! I'm thinking of making a vid or streaming either today or tomorrow.

 

[FranXico]

Does this mean a release date announcement is imminent?

 

[Dunki]

Nice I hope streamers like Lirik and co get codes to check it out^^

 

[GribbleGrunger]

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Off to get a kebab and then post more pics.

Sorry but what is this?

Is this a game or something?

It's a development suite to make games, movies, music, art ect.

Ii is the evolution of LittleBigPlanet.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

There's very little to this gameplay but it's only really meant to be a graphical showcase. It's by a team that's formed to create quality content for Dreams:



Another one:

 

[thelastword]

Ahhhhh! that first pic, even Dreams is censored.........

But yes, WOW, some serious talent will emanate from this project........Really impressive screens, some of the lighting displayed in dream's creations are really really good......Lots of atmosphere is on display here, that and from what I've seen in the other thread as well......

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Check out the first teaser on this ...

 

[Tripolygon]

omg

 

[Enjay]

With hundreds more to be soon taking its place.

Bless. It's hurts when you find out you're wrong.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

omg

Yeah, I just came to post these. AMAZING!

 

[Enjay]

Bless. It's hurts when you find out you're wrong.

No it won't.

 

[Tripolygon]

Yeah, I just came to post these. AMAZING!

Im speechless at what people can create when given such an intuitive powerful tool.

 

[zeorhymer]

Very cool engine. I hope devs find the engine easy to work with and can use it in a number of different genres.

How do they fake reflections?

 

[Shifty]

That first-person shooter is really something. Looking forward to watching making-of videos when this gets out into people's hands at large.

The music one is intriguing too- I wonder if that's all synthesized using in-game events and hooked directly into the lighting, or whether there's some sort of fast fourier transform spectum analysis thing that you can plug events into. Hmm.

How do they fake reflections?

As best as I can tell it's all done with lighting and materials. Just a bunch of shiny surfaces with strategically-placed point lights to create specular highlights.

Bless. It's hurts when you find out you're wrong.

No it won't.

 

[Hendrick's]

Yeah, I just came to post these. AMAZING!

They look great, but are they playable or just dioramas?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

They look great, but are they playable or just dioramas?

Those are just environments the team are putting together. If they released them you'd be able to walk around them and probably shoot the weapon, but that's about all, unless they've developed them more by now.

For the light sabers stuff?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

 

[Shifty]

For the light sabers stuff?

Oh, that. Clearly I'm blind

My guess is that it's the old-school technique of creating a perfect inverted copy of the whole scene and putting it behind a semitransparent surface. Double the resource cost, but perfect accuracy from a rendering standpoint.

 

[julio_grr]

That may work for one unique planar surface but may prove difficult for other shapes

That's how it's done in Minecraft.

Contrast that style with this:

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

I'm speechless. Media praising stuff like Anthem and this going almost under the radar. Fucking outrageous. And then, they dare say the industry is in peril or whatever.

 

[onQ123]

This guy is clearly trolling lol

 

[GribbleGrunger]

I don't think it's going under the radar for long. You just can't ignore Dreams!

 

[rəddəM]

Always wanted to create a game.
Now there's a game where you create games.
Now I can play/create games.
Dreams do come true.

 

[DunDunDunpachi]

This is super cool. This surpasses anything I would've expected possible.

I honestly thought Dreams was going to be some stupid movie-maker/animation thingy, up until just a few months ago.

 

[GermanZepp]

This game has the potential to be revolutionary. im amazed, and very happy for mm pals and gals.

 

[iconmaster]

How do they fake reflections?

Given that apparently global lighting is confirmed, I'm gonna guess you get screen space reflections as well.

 

[NahaNago]

This does get me thinking. What if Sony decides that media molecule makes the next media molecule game maker a playstation game engine for indie game devs to make money with instead. Pretty much locking devs to the playstation platform.

 

[mckmas8808]

Sorry but what is this?

Is this a game or something?

And yes it'll come with designed gameplay stages that the devs are making so that you don't have to create anything.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Anyone want to wear this on their face?

 

[zackmorris]

I really hope this game has legs, so much potential

 

[GribbleGrunger]

It has a 10 year plan behind it.

Where did you see G.I. is confirmed for DREAMS?

 

[GribbleGrunger]

I'm watching a stream in which someone is demoing their landscape procedural generation. OMG.

 

[iconmaster]

Where did you see G.I. is confirmed for DREAMS?

Or global “lighting” I guess.

 

[onQ123]

He is trolling

 

[Shifty]

Somebody's remaking Metal Gear Solid 4 in Dreams?! The absolute madman.
