Yume Nikki 3d ZykovEddy 09/18/13 (Wed) 16:51:54 No. 8432 [Last 50 Posts]
Hello everyone. So, I've played Yume Nikki this summer and enjoyed it so much that I couldn't resist to make a fangame.
Yume Nikki 3d was made in a few days and instead of using RPG Maker, I used an old 3d engine from the 90's. The alpha version is short and may be completed in 20 mins or so. Your task is to find three keys in random locations and open the exit. All locations are connected by portals. For the most part I tried to create my own locations instead of copying ones from the original game, and only a few places have references to the original Yume Nikki.

That was very good. Yknow, you should make a fangame all of your own rather than branching off Yume Nikki like that. Maybe just a game slightly inspired by Yume Nikki rather than an actual fangame. A game kinda like this, I didn't realize how much I liked 3D until now, the immersion is so much better.

Dude this is wicked. I could totally see myself playing this for hours. I like that you added your own areas, more exploration! Hope your able to continue working on this, this looks like a really cool project.

Played the game all the way to the end, and I gotta say that I had a load of fun playing this. The worlds were interesting, and I liked the music in the game (The NES world music was my favorite). Good job OP, can't wait to see what's in store in the future.
ZykovEddy 09/19/13 (Thu) 07:34:47 No. 8444
Thanks for the comments.
Soon I'll begin working on an updated version. I'm planning to make more locations, the proper nexus, wake up/sleep system, various doorways instead of portals, save/load feature and maybe some effects.
>>8439 I'm not sure if I can add my own characters and story to the game for now, since I don't have a sprite artist. Maybe later.

This is really cool. I was expecting it to be the actual Yume Nikki maps built in 3D and was surprised when it wasn't but it's still really cool. It reminds me of Worlds 3D, it has that same sort of desolate landscape feel.

Holy shit this is amazing! >Build engine ALWAYS BET ON DUKE! Since you don't have sprite artists and it's still early in the development, I suggest branching and making a full 3D version of Yume Nikki (I'm sure it would be really great to explore it in a 3D enviroment for immersion purposes) and later your own original fangame. Still what you have done is fucking great!

Hi! I'm a Spanish Yume Nikki youtuber and I want to congrat you for give birth to such a great game. I simply loved it and I've recorded a gameplay. In my opinion You have made a great work concerning overall the processing system in poor computers. Without recording your game it runs in my computer at 170 fps, and my machine has just 1 GB RAM and 1.67 GHZ, which is almost nothing. I'm very happy in all those things and you should be proud of yourself :)I want to ask you just two question: -Are you planning to release many betas or you are working in a single beta to release a final version? -When do you plan to release the next version? And this is it, I'm looking forward your proyect and I will review every beta you release. Regards from Spain.

2. if possible, don't make it so blatant. as in, no text. just like… a sign or something with a bike on it. yume nikki is all about being subtle.
i don't know if i would reccomend putting any kind of hints in it at all though… some may say it ruins the game.

Will you make more use of the 3D enviroment and the possibility of jumping? Aside from more typical void-floor YN areas.
I liked the one that was like a house

Anonymous 10/04/13 (Fri) 15:48:40 No. 8527
>>8525 When you select the keyboard only control (I liek playing it that way) there's a cursor function to select an option, and it uses the keys to move under that control, but the movement only seems to work horizontally. Nothing's mapped to the vertical movement and you can't select anything, which right now makes the keyboard only option unplayable. That should be easy to fix though. I don't know if it's too much work, but I suggest removing all cursor function entirely from keyboard only.

>>8525 Ok this was pretty fun!
First of all, great work!, you worked fairly fast on this!
Here is my feedback:
-First of all, addressing the pic in my post.
I've used all 3 keys, but the yellow lock looks deactivated. It works, but the other 2 ones are kinda highlighted while this one doesn't.
-You misspelt Kikiyama as "Kiliyama" in the credits
-I think Poniko and Masada should be solid, so you can't go through them. This would make them feel more like characters and less like sprites who just happen to be there. More wandering NPCs would be nice too.
-I first entered the space rockets area from above.
The continuous red texture in the towers makes it hard to see the path to go down, to the point I thought it was just a one-way area.
Others:
-Love the piano area music, it has a small part that we hear in Yume Nikki somewhere. Fits pretty good.
-I think it would be good to add some more ghost? madotsukis in the seizure looking area. I loved how it looked in 0.1, like it was a hub of sorts for each discarded Madotsuki a player controlled ever. Great mindfuck potential!
-the
music box is great!
-Love the path down with all those eyes and hands and creepy music.
-
I think the streets themselves are a pretty nice, subtle hint to look for the bike effect -Like the stair tower, reminds me of LCD DEM clock tower.
-About Uboa event:
when I saw a ballon I instantly knew what I was getting into I suggest changing the monster in the post-Uboa area from that repeated rotating background to a single, far, giant, horryfingly looking one, it will feel more ominous -Effects were cool, will we get a shift-key function for the 8bit one?
Also, I've noticed most things in the game look giant compared to Madotsuki. I suggest, for a twist, to include a "giant" effect, instead of a "dwarf" one unlike the original game.
-Maybe play hide and seek with the yuki onna for some item?
-Last suggestions, to make blindfold effect allow you to read the garbled texts? or hidden paths, or something like that.
And finally, to make some breakable walls for the knife. There's a room in the bell tower that I guess it's unfinished since it has an empty doorway, but it also has on a wall nearby this nice looking crack that would be nice to be able to open.
Sorry for the wall of text!, I'll be very interested to see how this develops
ZykovEddy 10/04/13 (Fri) 18:51:32 No. 8530
>>8529 Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it. Glad you liked the game!
About the bugs:
1 - Hmmm, yeah, looks kinda weird compared to other two.
2 - Fixed an hour ago, hehe. Thanks for noticing, though.
3 - Will be fixed.
4 - Hmm, maybe a different texture will fix that.
Other:
2,7, 9, 10, 11, 12 - Will think about it.
About the doorway, it's a part of a hidden event. You should do something in this location to activate the doorway.

>>8525 What a fantastic update, this game just keeps getting better and better.
pretty anticlimactic ending, but whatever Great game, it's like Kikiyama himself made this!
Now for the questions…
1: This is hard, I loved most of the locations. Maybe the monochrome clock world.
2: Just one, when you leave the number world and go into the epilepsy inducing world (the one with the mado clone), the music from the number world still plays, but just for a short while, then it starts playing the epilepsy world music.
3: I loved the music, it was great. My favorite track was the one in the number world.
4: Yea they were pretty cool, I thought the palette effect was cute.
>>8529 I really like the idea with the blindfold effect, that'd be neat.
ZykovEddy 10/05/13 (Sat) 14:11:49 No. 8532
>>8531 Thanks. Gonna fix that bug soon.
Btw, can anyone update information about the game on YN fangame wiki? I would do this, but I don't know how to change things in wiki engine.
Also, is there any way to update the first post in the thread?
Anonymous 10/05/13 (Sat) 21:15:37 No. 8534
>>8525 It took me 2 hours to finish this game (yeah I'm kinda slow) and I have to say it's really awesome :D
Great job!
Now my feedpack:
1 - I think my favorite location was the street world, I had some fun pushing the cars in a corner so they spin on themselves.
2 - In the area where you have to walk on lines and if you fall you have to start again, you can just go to the end and… jump on the line.
When using the blindfold effect there are some parts of other worlds that appear, it does it when activating and deactivating the effect.
And finally, with the good camera angle you can also see a bit through walls.
3 - The music was really good, but I feel like the loop from the world with the flying clocks isn't really good, maybe it's juste me though.
4 - I didn't play the first version so I can't tell.
It's a really cool game and the only thing I didn't like was the end I think, hope you'll change it later!
ZykovEddy 10/06/13 (Sun) 10:33:50 No. 8536
So far, the only major complaint about the game I've heard is that players expect this to be a remake of the original game, not a spin-off. So, should I add more areas from the original, or should I keep doing my own thing? I'm confused.
ZykovEddy 10/06/13 (Sun) 11:09:07 No. 8537

>>8536 It would probably satisfy a lot of people, and be a generous nod towards the original, if you included all the really iconic places (that's probably quite a few…).
I think you should still keep working on your own thing though.
Anonymous 10/06/13 (Sun) 21:26:57 No. 8542
this game is great and all, but i think you should brighten the colours a little bit more. It feels too bleak and dark sometimes, it is more like .flow than YN. the game is uses too much grey, blacka and white, which is not that cool when you look at the game's original color palette. Also, yeah, reuse iconic locations from the original game like masada's ship etc. but hell, good job, it's the first time i see a yume nikki 3d game that is actually done, unlike yume 3dkki.

The idea and the game itself are great. I have a proposition about Yume Nikki 3D. Some people (like me, for example) would like to enjoy playing this game as similar to the original one as possible. How about making 2 modes; New Game (100% compatible with YN) and New Game+ (with addons, new effects, worlds and so).

I finished it! It's truly nice to see this kind of works! What I liked the most: - JUMPJUMPJUMPJUMP(I love jumping charas) - The house (+the carillon/Television, truly cute); I really like the dark, creepy and "calm before the storm"atmosphere - The hospital and the fact that Madotsuki is very small and the eyes on the wall. - The black/white world (it's the first world I visited and I thought: I hope to see Masada here… lol) - The uboa event (the original didn't scare me, this one did.) - The snow world (refreshing music and atmosphere, lol) - The dark forest - The long way with the monkey "smiling" faces - The fact that there are a lot of references to space The program/engine you used recreates a perfect yume nikki athmosphere; I really liked the music and the fact that you used the blindfold effect. What I dind't like: - No Nasu *sobs* - How you made the space shuttle place (even if it's nice the idea of the red/fire that brings you in a very dark and rainy place)…but this only my personal taste. - The "epilepsy" world (my eyes, I almost had an attack) - The eyephotos in the eyeworld (I mean, they were creepy, but not so yume nikki related) The fact that this game sometimes reminds me more of LSD than Yume Nikki itself because there is not a sense of continuity. Every world in Yume Nikki is different but you can relate it with the others because they have the same "style". I'm so sorry I don't know how to explain it clearly, but this is a lack I see in (almost) every single yume nikki fan game. "Something" is missing, I can't tell you specifically what it is. BTW this is only the second update and you made a lot of amazing things in a very little time, so I truly appreciate your ideas and I think that in the future the game will be more homogeneus. Keep on going! I have some questions for you: 1 - Did you have a general idea and theories about YN and worked on them or did you just want to make something dreamlike and weird? 2 - Will you include more Yume nikki original designs/worlds? 3 - Why did you choose that Madotsuki must find those three keys? Thank you for your attention. I know I suck at english but I hope you'll understand…If only I had had better english skills I would have suggested something.

Thanks for a great feedback guys!
Some people mentioned that the game tries to be darker than the original. The reason is, I was trying to express my emotions in some areas of the game, and since I'm having a really bad period in my life, some of the areas turned to be quite creepy. I'll try to make more dream-like areas later, to match the Yume Nikki style.
I will not be able to work as fast as before, sadly. You'll have to wait for the next update a little bit longer.
>>8554 Interesting thing, I can probably do a full remake of the original maybe in a month or so. The problem is, I find this task boring. All I want to do is just include some iconic places from the game.
>>8560 Never heard of this bug before, actually. Interesting. Can you tell me more about your PC?
>>8556 You mean, when you load the game, all effects you've collected dissapear from the effect menu?
>>8559 I'm thinking about including Nasu as a second game for the console.
1.I just wanted to do something weird, maybe express my feelings in a game.
2.Yes, I will include more iconic places from the original later.
3.The reason is simple - to add some variety and maybe make the game a little bit longer.

I'm gonna be honest, it's very nice to see such feedback. I rwally appriciate the reviews, comments and bug reports. In a previous year I released the project called Slender's Woods, and while it was a big hit, I didn't like the feedback that much. All I had was a hundreds of pewdiepie-like let's plays and a bunch of kids shouting "wow kooool thanx" in the comments. It was annoying and non-satisfying.

I've been already posting in this thread, and i've been playing the game non stop since like the release.
As i said in
>>8542 ,
the game still feels too dark. Yume nikki's strenght, in my opinion, was on the use of vibrant colors to give you a sentiment of unease, look at number worlds, for instance.
And when i personnaly said you should use more locations from the original game, i don't think that you should actually use the original locations as a base. reuse the aztec imagery, like the aztec rave monkey, floating fetuses and stuff, and then add your spice on all of that. For instance, if you had to reuse the wilderness desert, you could make it destroyed, or the mall thing being renovated.
Afterall, we're in madotsuki's head one more and i guess the art style should fit kikiyama's spriting stuff :)
If you want i can try to put my propositions into drawings to help you get my point :)

Agux 10/22/13 (Tue) 16:43:51 No. 8603
First of all, amazing job! This is very fun and seems to be very promising. You managed to capture the essence of YN very well, with no need of being pushed into recreating anything and at the same time making your own vision of the game freely. Now: 1. Every location looked natural and very YN style. It's difficult to choose between them because every single one looked good. 2. Only bugs mentioned before, but I list them anyway: . Being able to climb the colour bridges in the dark place after the clock world just by jumping on them . The little flash that shows an area for a milisecond when you activate/desactivate the blindfold effect (btw, are you planning something for this effect? It looks like incomplete) . Being able to see a little thru walls when the 3rd view collides with them (this bug is problem of eduke tough, not yours) 3. Yes! Hell yes! Music was very immersive and simple as the original, with that implicit touch of complexity hidden on them. It fits perfectly with the environments, good selection! I love the piano world song and the perfect loop of the ice world doesn't stop playing in my head ^^ 4. I was not dissapointed with the effects, but I would obviously like to see more. Not neccesarily any of the old effects, but whatever you can imagine will sure be interesting. I didn't like: .The STAIRS. Maybe it's just me, but the area looked very artificial/forced in comparison with the other areas. Also, it's music is the only one that sounded very out of place. I don't know, but it doesn't convince me. I think you should keep the idea of a stair of that type if you do something like the original "Stair-between-hands", and not just a simple interlude between 2 areas. It felt very anti-climatic for me… .I don't like how the palette effect is displayed, it decreases certain seriousness in the game by having Mado with a cute palette floating over her head. I would change Mado sprite to something weird for that effect, something like what you did with Monochrome .The pictures of people's eyes on the eye world… they are kind of anti-climatic Suggestions: (I love to suggest!) .I've mapped for eduke, so it really surprises me how you bended the engine into this and certain tricks you used! I'd suggest you to use some RoR. It's possible since long time ago and it would be great if you implemented it. It would allow you not only to make a lot of weirder things, but it would give you even more space for your worlds by having them "stacked" .Are you planning to change the "exit" location? Because I don't think you are planning to leave that entire DOOR reserved only for the exit (Yes, more a question than a suggestion) .You should include ALL of the important/memorable characters in the original YN (wich are almost all of them lol) .Recreate some iconic areas yes, but with your vision. I disagree with the idea of creating 2 versions of the game. I think you should do do what you ENJOY doing. Making both would only distract you and make things tedious and redundant, if you know what I mean. I would love to see an exact recreation of YN, but this, dude, this is better and looks waaaay more promising than that… .More hidden places, shortcuts and connections between worlds would be great! What had Yume Nikki was that once you explored a giant place entirely and thought you were done with it, one day you decided to come back and then noticed something that was hidden at plain sight, then you encountered some passages/connections that you never saw. And when you were hyped by all this new exploration, then, all of a sudden, you find yourself in a dead end. But that's one of the principles of the game, you don't know what to expect and can't predict anything, and this makes the suspense greater. .There are some worlds/areas that seem bigger of what they really are by first impression, then they are very small, you could expand them a bit (For example, the "epilepsy" world) .I don't know if you know well the map "Lunatic Fringe" from the episode 2 of DN. That map is a badass architectural paradox, maybe you can take some ideas from it… This is all for now, gtg to work, I may suggest more later. I know it's already a lot of points to consider, but I love projects like this and I'm willing to help in everything I can. Sorry for my bad english, I'm not 100% fluid with it yet. Good luck! And hope to see another version soon!! :D

I liked this game, quite a bit. Felt like just Yume Nikki. I agree with going the "make it a tribute but create your own content" route. Seeing familiar characters dotted here and there is nice, but the stuff that's not a direct reference is really good. The only thing missing is some kind of chaser (like Toriningen) to add some tension. That would be neat. Thank you and please keep going!

Yume Nikki 3D "Isolated" DLC ZykovEddy 01/09/14 (Thu) 17:31:02 No. 8950
Hello everyone. While v 0.03 is still in development, I decided to release a little side project/DLC based on YN3D, called Isolated.
The reason why I decided to release it as DLC and not to include it in v 0.03 is because I wanted to experiment with Yume Nikki concept a little bit (and maybe express some of my current feelings and emotions in it). The gameplay is different from the original game, and all locations are brand new.
Extra graphics and music was made exclusively for this DLC.
http://gamejolt.com/games/yume-nikki-3d/download-distribution/20501/?os=windows The download includes Isolated DLC and slightly updated v 0.02 (now you can play the game without using the mouse).

I also liked the various events that happened, and a lot of the text-based things surprised me. I don't want to spoil too much for anyone reading this, though, so that's all I'll say about those.
I do wish there were a liiitle more interaction with the world/objects therein.

Thanks guys. >>>Are you planning on making the rest of your original YN3D as dark as this is? No, and that's the reason why I released it separately. The point of Isolated was to create something dark and depressing, because this is that I felt while developing it. Maybe some events will appear in future releases of YN3D, though. Glad you liked the infinitive location. This was actually the part of experiment. Many people asked if that's possible to make a true infinitive zones in 3D. The final result is kind of clumsy, but works, I guess. Maybe I'll do something like that in YN3D.

You can also make some infinitive zone like dark world (with darkness, such as you do in DLC), sand desert (with sandstorm), maze or a wide place with lots of exits (put the warp point on the end of map).
PS: I'm not a game developer so I don't know if it's hard to do in your 3D engine or not, just have some idea to share from playing other games and fangames. I hope my opinion can give you some help, good luck!

>>10962 Oh shit, I didn't know you made this! I downloaded it a few days ago and it probably would've just sat in my "weird shit from itch.io" folder for months before I got to it but I checked it out and it's rad as fuck.
I really like your choice of engine, it gives your stuff a weird creepy mid-90s vibe that Unity can't really replicate. Keep making cool shit fam.

Done playing the game. Looks and plays basically like "LSD: Dream Emulator", only non-random. Really liked the hand-drawn world. Music is good too. Really good sometimes. Still, we want some YN3D update - the poor thing feels too unfinished to abandon it now. Oh, and for Christ sake, correct the "тся-ться" in Russian version of "time waste camera".

I totally forgotten about this until i saw the electric highways on moddb, i had this on my disk forgoten about it. I tried yn3d on my netbook but it gives me an opengl error, however it can run duke nukem 3d atomic edition just fine. Tough it would rather play this on my main box, but it runs linux and i cant find eduke 32 packages for debian. Tough it would be fine if you could ship a static executable for linux too. Electric highways sounds really awsome, i hope i can try it soon. Good luck with your projects.

>>11014 Well i can try it, but it still kinda silly considering there is native linux support.

>>11014 It dont work. :(
I think you should include linux support, linux is rather large these days, even steam is supported and i bet many here cant afford windows and wont put up with piracy.

Playing this game again made me realize how much I need more 3D YNFGs in my life. Thank you for making such great games.
