Like sands through the hour glass, so are the dreams of our nights.
JAR vs I I was with a group of people in someones house. I was with JAR. I couldn't believe it. I held her and we danced. I think I kissed her neck. One by one the other people, mostly kids, started coming in the room. I couldn't be personal with her. I told her it would be impolite at this party to keep going away from everyone to be alone. She said, "OK." Later, I was with IF. If was sad because she understood. She was going to leave. I felt bad. IF began to tear up. I opened a tiny bottle of something from her work. It smelled like isopropyl alcohol. Dream Skip The group contained young adults now. We were being instructed by someone on how to fly a jet in a game. We were being given step by step instructions that we had to write down. The first instruction was to engage the thrusters and keep them on. He was referring to a kind of pilot light that would allow actual thrusters to engage when necessary. He said that whether we needed forward or reverse thrusters, the fire would start that thruster. I was falling behind writing the instructions. I think there were between 9 and 11 instructions for us to take home and study.
Claymation Game All I remember from this dream was that there was a game with a cartoon of a claymation dinosaur / dragon. It appeared to be about 6" tall. There was a goal to do something with a ball which was about 2" in diameter--I forgot what. It looked like a beach ball with different colors. Once the goal was complete, there was like an extra point to be gotten. The dinosaur had to just touch the ball, and the ball would disappear, or be absorbed by the dinosaur or something. I didn't see the game play, but it was time for the dragon to touch the ball. He touched it with the base of his tail, but the ball didn't disappear. The dinosaur looked at the ball a little confused. He leaned into the ball more--nothing. Then he fell on the ball to make stronger contact with it, but it didn't go away. Not so Vacation I was at a beach with my first girlfriend. She was with her new man. I was thinking it was time to pack and go home, so I started to pack. It was really difficult getting all my clothes together in the suitcase, but I wanted to get it done so I didn't have to do it later. I saw my old girlfriends cloths and noticed a black, corduroy Nike shirt that I liked, and a shirt with a seagull that I used to like a lot. I wished I had them. Her clothes were perfectly folded. She told me we were going to stay at the beach until Friday which was a few days away, although it was Thursday. I had a lot of trouble figuring out how much time we could stay at the beach because of this discrepancy, but I tried to enjoy the fact that we had a few days of vacation left. I wanted to go to the beach, but the bathroom was dirty. There were holes in the bathtub and other places. There was trash stuffed in all the holes, and it wasn't easy to get out, but I couldn't take a shower with trash everywhere. I didn't want to go to the beach knowing I couldn't take a shower later, but I didn't want to spend my whole vacation cleaning the bathroom. Eventually I joined the party. I asked if the beach had shells I could look for. R said, "Yes." I looked out the window. The beach was above us, which I thought was odd. I saw nice waves and lots of shells. There were so many shells, it didn't even look nice to walk on the beach.
A Girl and a Video Game I was with a S_t. I was behind her on a sofa, but we both fit. I was holding her around her waist, but we were both playing a game on the TV. On the game, we each had a home base to protect, and some things would come down to attack. The goal was to put your cursor over them and hit a button to stop them. It wasn't shooting them, but in a real game, we would have shot them. At one point, I saw and heard a space ship from Asteroids. When I had stopped all of the things that were attacking my home base, I started clicking on the ones that were attacking S's home base. Later, I needed to take the bus home a very long way. I don't ride the bus in w/l. I had given S all my change, so I needed a dollar. My friend gave me a dollar and as I put it in my wallet, I found a dollar, but I wanted the other one anyway so I could eat. I showed my friend he gave me a ten. He had only looked at the tiny numbers all over the bill and had mistakenly thought it was a single. I showed him and he was happy to get the ten back. I told him I would appreciate his change to give me another dollar since I gave him the ten back, and he gave it to me. I eventually got on the bus.
I have been playing zombie games with my boy. Last night I dreamed I was playing a game where you had to shoot these zombies, but they looked more like slugs that stand up, which is an idea that a friend of mine had in waking life. The interesting thing about the game was that there were clouds that you had to blow on or they would form a dragon. It was a cheap looking dragon, but I remember at one point, after we had blown the clouds apart, they started coming back together, and watching them start to form a dragon was really neat. -- I was outside somewhere and it was night time. A limousine pulled up by a curb under a tree where it was even darker. It was an old limousine. The paint had lost all its luster, and it didn't look like any old limo I've ever seen. It had a grill like a truck on a tractor-trailer. It was a giant square grill. Then, the grill opened like a mouth. It was a devil car. The grill opened to reveal another grill behind it, on which it said something about sex. Super evil. Then the car started to talk with the inner grill moving up and down so it was more like a mouth. It told some guy that he had to kill some people or the car was going to kill him. This guy went into a room where there were a bunch of servers that held information on people around the world. He started pulling some kind of cards or mother-boards out from these shelves of servers and destroyed them all. Somehow this translated into killing hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Then I saw his boss and some other guy who didn't even seem to care. I thought that they didn't care because the damage was done and there was nothing they could do about it. Dream skip: I'm in a room that is like a museum. I see a ceramic pot that I really like, and it is teetering on edge because someone placed it incorrectly. I was upset and tried to fix it, but only succeeded in knocking it over. It fell about 7 feet to the floor and bounced a couple times only barely nicking it. (This was a replay of when I was 15 in waking life. I was changing a light-bulb at McDonalds and it dropped from waist high. It landed perfectly on the top of the bulb--the glass part, and bounced back up. I had no idea it would bounce, so I didn't have the presence of mind to catch it, though if I had bent down a little, I could have caught it. Instead, it fell back down and shattered.) Anyway, dream skip and I'm in bed with a stranger. This isn't strange somehow as in my dream this happens a lot. I always snuggle with my partner, but it is not sexual. It is just being close at night. I kiss her on the forehead and she tells me she doesn't want me to kiss her, so I apologize and roll over. Her body was still touching me, so I try to scoot over. I tell her that I am at the edge and can't move over anymore. -- I'm at my first girlfriends house and she is telling me something. Her dress comes up a little and she exposes herself a little. I look at her in the eye, but enjoy her accidentally flashing me.
I was waiting in line or something trying to register myself as a character for the LD Video Game. -- I was back at school in a class with my head on the desk. I was asleep. I knew I had to wake up to get to my own class. I was already late, so I made myself wake up. I was scared about getting into my class late. I got up and as I walked out, I looked at the teacher. She didn't look at me. As I looked for my class, I said hi to an old acquaintance by his last name "Zski" (though I used his complete last name). I said hello to an old teacher "Mrs. Jpe" (used real last name), and I gave her a hug. I saw an old friend "Swn Tnnt." I was nervous that I couldn't find my class room. What was I, stupid? The End -- I was walking along outside when I saw a large trash can--the type supplied by trash companies. The lid was open and there was a girl about 5 yrs old, and two babies in the trash. They were sleeping--kind of. I was terrified for them. Someone with me stood up inside the trash can. I told the DC to be careful a few times, but he/she kept almost stepping on the head of one of the babies. Finally they weren't standing in the trash can anymore. I asked the girl who was the care taker of the babies if they wouldn't rather just sleep outside in nature, but I realized that that could be dangerous I was thinking about helping them somehow. Then there were only two girls and they were older now. One took off her pants the way entertainers do with special pants designed to come completely away by ripping them off. Both were cute. Then I was with my brother I think. He climbed into the back of a pup-truck and I followed. I told him he shouldn't sit on the tail gate, but he wouldn't listen. I don't really know where we were going. The End
Credit for these ideas can be found in the LD Game Idea thread in your individual posts. Most of these ideas are from team members, not me. If you like this page, please send praise to the LD Game Idea thread. Thank you. Game Related Ideas A game with a kind-of a kingdom hearts feel.You could also go with a sandbox style game. I have some music I wrote up which is still in the works.There would be some evil beings on the dream plane that are invading the waking world and this guy has to learn to lucid dream to stop them.As you progress in the game, you learn new "dream control" abilities...like flying, super sprint, teleportation, etc.You could also face certain obstacles that you have to overcome. Walls, bad guys (or cops ), dark regions and such. You could go different ways (per your sandbox idea), to get away from problems, and call on your abilities as appropriate.You can slowly lose a power like getting heavy while flying...or losing lucidity! Administrative ideas I think we need to recruit more people from this forum to help with the project. Anyone reading this, even if there is nothing you think you can do, trust me there is. Please volunteer.We will also need someone to compile a list of people working on the project and their contributions for the credits.Each team should have some means of contact outside of this thread to communicate on what needs to be done and post a few updates back here.We should get a list of who wants to help and once we have 10+ we should all get into chat and see if we can get the ball rolling.The best way to go about this would be to make a short demo first. Maybe around 20-30 minutes of play time. Then you can release/show off the demo and go with it from there. Making a full game is a huge project and a demo could definitely get you a good start. It would also be wise to go with the xbox live marketplace/playstation network-type game. Many of those games are made by small groups of people. Download-able media is really booming right now, and seems to be going nowhere but up.Create a script from the collective ideas of everyone. Possibly put up some polls and whatnot to make some decisions (like the name of the game, etc.I would suggest anyone involved make a link in their signature to this thread. Called, "The Lucid Video Game Project," or something similar.
