Knock Harder : Useless
A downloadable game
You are inside a multi-level dream. No one knows when it is over and you wake up in reality. Observe your surroundings and inspect everything. All around you is just a dream if you spot something strange. This is the only way to wake up. If you think that everything around you is the reality then try to survive until the time-out. However, if it's timeout inside a dream then you will die in reality. The goal of the game is to reach reality. You must be careful. Any awakening can be the final one inside reality. Don't get yourself killed in there.
I was always curious how Dominic Cobb would feel in Nolan’s “Inception”. Or Doctor from “Doctor Who” when he was under the influence of dream crabs. Or Rick and Morty in the imitation chamber of alien reality. This is exactly why I made this game that is gamification of these situations.
Knock Harder: Useless - this is the free version of the game, which includes only an easy level of difficulty
Feature of game:
- Unique gameplay where a player makes a decision that can be fatal without any hints provided.
- An uncommon combination of two graphical styles.
- Great music "Mistland Prattlers" by Lex-O-Lantern

i was sure it's inspired by "Last christmas":>
Yes, it is)
Pros and cons are down below) Check out my vid:
Advantages:
1. The concept is awesome! I saw the game in its the previous version and there are now more hints - and they repeat rarely. This is soo cool! Great job!
2. The visuals are very nice! Can't wait for the whole house in the paid version. The game is actually better with the eyes though previous style made it more unique.
3. I love that there are different length of layers of sleep. I mean in the vid there were 12 layers for one attempt - that's crazy! Though still 7 or 8 is the most common number of layers.
Disadvantages:
1. The demo gets pretty repetitive after a while. I know that this won't be such a prob;em in the full version, so I cant' wait for it!
2. Though, I can't imagine noticing all these hints of sleep in the full house. I'm afraid there won't be enough time to figure out whether you are asleep or not. Still, i believe you will figure this one out)
Overall: I think the idea is awesome and the realization is very cool as well! Can't wait for the full version. I will definitely buy it! 5/5. 10/10. Please, keep the work going on this project!
Hope the feedback was useful!
Thank you very much for your feedback. I'm very glad you liked it. The full version will be available next week. It will contain more than 150 new basic and additional signs of sleep.
Just played the full version. It's A-MAZING! Great job! Thanks for letting me know that it is finally out)
Really liked the concept, it's sometimes tricky to figure out if you're in the real world. :)

is it a Dream or Reality?
Really really cool! I had a blast with it! thank you for sharing your art, I'm excited to see what else it has to offer! Does the game have multiple endings? or just different ways to lose?
Thanks for playing. The game has different endings at different levels of difficulty + secret endings. However, only the light mode is currently available and, accordingly, only 1 ending
