hi welcome back to Distance, my names ▷, and i like creating music, and talking about yume nikki fangames @distanceaswell.bsky.social is where i am not in character. any/all - (Aooh)tistic - 21 and counting

i have "completed" Oversomnia. (which means: i got all the effects and saw an ending.) this game is surprisingly complex and has multiple layers- all the effects show a lot of potential for use, and i love the way the tuning fork's usage is hinted at. this game is also very polished feeling.

i have "completed" INSULTED. (which means: i got all the endings) i am so internally conflicted on how to feel about this game. it frustrates me to death and the cutscenes are paced so confusingly and slowly. i hate how overly linear this game is, no inter-connected dream worlds here.

i played Note Dream. 2 hour 15 minute session. the first time i've anticipated a fangame's release. this fangame is really interesting, i think i really like it. the music does some really weird textural and percussive stuff thats hard to really explain other than "it sounds like your heart"

Note Dream@notedream-ynfg.bsky.social · last mo.

Note Dream Ver. 0.00 release. Thank you all for your patience during this time! notedream-official.itch.io/note-dream This is a collaborative YNFG project, led by rosaregard, ZLD1, oliver, and Moucky. (Art by. oliver) #notedream_official #ynfg #ゆめにっき派生 #ゆめにっき派生公開・更新

sorry everyone, i just caught someone in the distance. someone in the ▷, if you will, but you dont have to. they look vaguely like a rabbit. should i go say hello? should i say hello the rabbit looking mouse? the mouse looking rabbit?

i love talking about automated processes like factories and plastic bottle creation! i like to debate on the nuances of political discourse! i love having strong negative opinions about things i dont care about! this is how to be human, right? i pass as human, right? sqrribllll~

i played Mikan Muzou. 2 hour session. expected nothing, and got a lot of cool stuff in return. same dev as Debris. this fangame is pretty standard all things considered, but it did scare me a couple times. i liked the phone call event in the dream room. music is very loud and dissonant.

▷i played wearedreaming. 2 hour session. was told it was beautiful, and it ended up being beautiful. despite the over-sized-ness of some of these worlds, i like the landmarks and easily-rememberable parts of each world that make it not that much of a problem to get through them. hitboxes though...

i have "completed" Ebb. (which means: i got all the effects) this game is very interesting, its pretty damn well made. a lot of interesting stuff hidden away in the corners. though i did end up finding some very random bugs. very delightful.

i played Dream Factory. 3 hour session. i was not ready for what this Wolf RPG game was about to do to me. this fangame starts horribly slowly, but eventually after 6 effects it becomes one of the most intriguing and interesting experiences i've EVER had playing a YNFG, and i wont say more.

i played Hallucigenia. 2 hour session. i have debated with myself whether or not i should talk about my experiences with this game and i decided that i will. bizarre game, even more devoid of sound than ◎. art style is very jarring i think. i have more thoughts...

BildBildBildBild

i play Void. 1 hour 50 minute session. another short game, i got the endings already. this game was made in RPG Maker MV. this game is pretty, but also kinda weird. a lot of the textures are very small, which feel kinda goofy when combined with the surprisingly heavy use of varied pixel size.

originally i was planning to have a Yume Nikki Fangame demo available for DDJ10, however considering recent events and the fact that my headspace is not looking too good (my nexus has gotten a lot darker.) i think it will likely miss the deadline which is.. in 20 hours i will finish a demo. not now

okay. im going the fuck to bed. hopefully tomorrow i will be back in character, i hate taking things seriously but in a scenario like this i cant sit around and just pretend like the community around me isnt fucking crumbling to pieces. i hope YNO rots in hell.

ima be real i cant stay in character for this. i do not support YNO. dont support YNO, dont support Hyo, dont support Sam, YNO is a fundamentally unsafe place and i think linking to it these days is a bad idea. it might become safe one day if staff changes occur but no. dont do that.

This is NacreMoon, one of the leaders of Collective Unconscious. This isn’t a CU official response or something, this is what I want to say. I don’t feel right continuing to keep quiet. Screenshots of notes because I can’t truncate my thoughts and feelings.

I was told about the grooming situation (after the fact) with a very biased recounting of events, asked to defend Hyo if it ever got out, and I fully believe my demotion by the YNO admins on CU was at least partially due to me eventually confronting Hyo in DMs and telling him that I didn’t think he took proper responsibility. 

I believe this because, during the conversation when Somnium told me about my demotion, he berated me for accusing Hyo of not taking enough responsibility. I was told Hyo did not try to intervene with the victim because he was worried for her mental health and her being suicidal, and even while I felt empathetic that it could be a difficult situation to be in and cause one to make poor judgements, I still thought it was not the correct decision. Eventually the flippant treatment of the situation, such as Hyo calling the victim “mentally unhinged” and claiming that she just had a grudge against him, and the focus on *him* as an equal or even greater victim weighed on me.There are additional ways the YNO admins and their friends treated me, including when I visited a few of them irl, that have grievously affected my own mental health for the past months. Some of my close friends have heard about these, and I did not realize until long after that it was pretty serious. They have a way with making you think every issue is your fault and that you deserve poor treatment. I buried all my misgivings because I was convinced they were good and admirable people and so I must be the problem.I haven’t spoken publicly about this until now because I was afraid of even more retaliation from YNO with CU being in an already fragile state (and tbh afraid of them in general), but I am tired of walking on eggshells and avoiding upsetting people who have done so much harm in this community. I’m sorry for my silence until now; I’m honestly disgusted with myself for ever being friends with the YNO admins. Sam’s transphobia is just another thing they’ve tried to downplay and bury.

i didnt know how bluesky worked and accidentally deleted the first message here but i was saying that i was also in the yno admin clique server and there was a grooming situation and i was close with hyo and aya there and there was a document from the victim showing hyo knew it was happening

i have "completed" Withers (which means: i got all the effects) despite suffering pretty largely from "probably playtested with a speed effect", Withers is really good. the attention to detail in most aspects of itself make it really fun to just look at really closely as you play the game.

i have "completed" Eternal Crysalis Dream (which means: i got all the effects and saw something.) this game is probably the most well done, well thought out, feature complete fangame that i've played outside of maybe .flow. it is absurd just how well designed and well put together it all is.
