Dream Flash News

Dream Flash Demo 18 is finally out! This is a huge update that adds 58 new items, heavily changes up game mechanics, and adds a bunch of visual renovations.



The main change in this update is that spiritual stats each have their own item pool now. These items could either enhance or devastate your run so you'll need to think carefully about what you pick.

Demo 18 List of Changes



There was also a demo 17.5 update that added new art work and improved attacks to the masked spirits. I probably should have announced that when it came out since I didn't think demo 18 would take this long. But anyways those 17.5 changes were planned to be in demo 18 so think of it as one big mega update.

I'd say Dream Flash is now about 70-80% maybe. The two updates (18.5/19) will be mainly polish and visual renovation. Once those are out I will no longer be updating the early access version of the game and will instead be working on the full release update. I have no idea how long this will take but it is probably going to be a long time as I plan on adding a large chunk of content to the game.



Hope you enjoy this update and any upcoming updates!

Sorry for the long wait for this update, I've been busy doing all kinds of new stuff irl like having a job and some other stuff that I can't remember. Things are pretty stable for me again which is good news for people who like relatively consistent updates to games I make. The next two updates should come out in a timely manner since they are already planned out and I've managed to simplify my workflow to be much more efficient.



We are getting close to the end of Dream Flash development. The next two updates will be mainly polish and changing lame mechanics to be less lame, with some extra content. Then the final update which is the release build will be a huge update that is probably equivalent to 3 demos. I hope to have this finished and out by the end of 2022.

Thanks for sticking around, I hope you enjoy what I got planned because its been waiting patiently for years at this point. Hopefully its as cool as I imagine it.

Dream Flash Demo 16 is finally out! This is a massive update that includes a brand new gameplay feature that I've been teasing for a while. If you want to experience this fresh I recommend playing the update right now, if you don't care about spoilers keep reading.



The state feature has finally been added to the game. The soul can now transform into stronger states that each have uniquely devastating new ways to deal damage to bosses.

I am very satisfied with how this update came out. I have been waiting to add this feature to the game for years. Now that it's finally in the game I can say that the game is much closer to being finished. I estimate that the game is currently 65-70% finished.



Thank you to everyone who plays this game and actively anticipates new updates. You keep me motivated to keep going!

Dream Flash demo #15 is now out! This is a pretty big update that finally includes the fourth stage of the game, along with 5 new bosses. There are also some new champion variants to existing previous bosses as well as touch ups to a few other existing things. Check out all the changes below:

I am very happy with the state of the game at this point. Each run now feels pretty "complete" as you go through room to room and chapter to chapter facing increasingly harder bosses until the end. The game is going to feel even more complete with the next update, which will add a new major gameplay feature that I've been planning since before I started working on this game.



We are definitely starting to get close to the end phase of development for Dream Flash. Thanks for playing, and look forward to the upcoming updates.

Dream Flash Demo 14.6 is out. This is a medium sized update that has a new soul sprite, optimization to performance, new artwork for 40+ items, and reworks to a bunch of items. I also worked on some back end stuff for demo 15, which will be coming out towards the end of April or in early May.



As stated previously Demo 15 will be a big update that adds the fourth stage to the game, 4-5 New Bosses, and an end game boss to stage 3. There also might be some new additions, like sub zones to existing stages.

Here's a preview into what y'all can expect, look forward to it!
