There’s no dearth of creative projects to come from Media Molecule’s Dreams. The all-in-one game creation software has allowed developers to build everything from a children’s puppet show to shockingly realistic renders of delicious breakfasts. However, now even those feats seem to have been one-upped. A forthcoming movie from Sony Pictures Classics called A Winter’s Journey will use Dreams to create its world.
IGN writes: "Media Molecule has said the layoffs at the Sony-owned studio have affected plans for ongoing community and curation support in Dreams."
How self sustained can DREAM be when it's basically stuck on PS4? I don't think it's even gotten a PS5 upgrade. Ending support for what is essentially a game making engine is basically death. SONY did DREAMS dirty.
Media Molecule Creative Director John Beech talks about making a very personal project in Dreams, available with PlayStation Plus.
Get ready for a trenmendous puzzlin’, high-score chasin’, nostalgic adventure, in the latest Mm Original, Tren!
This is really cool, it’s a shame they didn’t do more of this during the first 5 years of dreams. Demonstrates how powerful a tool it is. I kind of got the feeling puzzle types of games were really going to be the best use of dreams for putting together a whole complete game. More ambitious things never went beyond tech demos really. Or did they? I stopped really looking after a while
This looks gorgeous and fantastic. Really hope Sony reconsiders pulling support for Dreams, now that it’s coming to Plus.
This was something that expected to happen eventually so I am really intrigued to see how they get on with it.
I've also heard of professional developers using the Dreams engine to create games. I wonder when we will see the first of those projects released.
Now that's just damn impressive
This game should’ve been a PS Plus free game ages ago.
I love Mm, but i cant help but feel that they are mismanaging the Dreams potential somehow... Anyway this is interesting news and in curious to see the end product
