I Added Clouds To The Sky In DitherDream!
I added clouds to the sky in DitherDream!
They really just kinda popped in looking nice off the bat, and they also help to mitigate motion sickness a bit too, I think. All in all they just really make the archipelago feel like a nicer place to be.
I'll tweak them more of course, but I just had to celebrate a little.

The Colony of Enclaves is Open!
DitherDream is a trippy little exploration game in Early Access on Steam and Itch.io, and The Colony of Enclaves is the newest of dozens of little islands to explore and solve. A new island is added every Friday until full release later this year!
Y'know, I think maybe game development is worth it after all
DitherDream Update 2 is available to Patrons!
It will be available on both itch.io and Steam on Friday the 19th, but if you're curious now, come get it now! We've got new islands to explore, refined visuals, and a more actively communicative and helpful world. 🌍
DitherDream Update 3 is here! This is the most polished update and complete update yet! Major changes include:
Five New Islands: This includes, Way of Dust, Way of Ones, Dance of Devotion, Dance of Winds, and finally, The Nest. The Nest is an odd island, even in by the standards of The Archipelago. You reach it at the end of each region/island chain, and it serves as a hub island that allows travel to some islands that you've already reached. It will grow as you explore more of the world.
Islands now take 4 actions to go deeper instead of 6: This has helped to declutter and focus the islands. Existing islands have been adjusted to account for this, as well as being polished and improved as usual. This has massively improved several islands, and benefited all of them.
Island Mechanics: Several islands now have mechanics particular to them, tied to their particular objectives. These will continue to develop as we feel out each region's core feeling.
Old Portals: There are some old portals that you might find sitting around in various places. If you can reach them after at least two activations, they will send you to the other side of the primary cycle.
More Hints: The game is now more helpful in explaining itself and guiding the player through. DitherDream will always have some ambiguity to it, but now I think it should be easier to know what you need to do to see more of The Archipelago.
VFX Updates: A lot of shaders and visual effects have been improved, some more subtly than others.
Personally, I'm very happy with this update, it's really exciting to see the game coming together nicely. We're building on a strong foundation and it's only going to get better from here. Thank you for joining us on this little journey!
