It seems that there isn't a topic for this game, so I made one XD



"Yume Nikki (ゆめにっき) (pronounced /juːmeɪ niki/) is a 32-Bit freeware game created by Kikiyama, a Japanese solo game designer. The game was made using RPGMaker 2003. The game is regarded as one of the most original applications of RPGMaker 2003, and the start of a possible new genre of games.
"Yume Nikki" means "dream diary" (and thus the word can be written as 夢日記 although the title is normally in hiragana) and the game follows a young girl named Madotsuki as she dreams. The player can control where she goes and how she interacts. The goal is to acquire 24 effects.

The game otherwise has no plot, and nearly the entire game is left up to fan speculation."

[Information about Madotsuki]

"Madotsuki (窓付き) (pronounced /mɑˈdɒtsuː.kiː/) is the player character in Yume Nikki. She is the only character in Yume Nikki with an official name, since characters require a name for the menu screen in RPG Maker games.
As with virtually everything else in the game, Madotsuki's identity and life are a mystery. Only what can be seen in-game can be considered canon, although there are many varying interpretations of her.

Fans speculate that she is young - anywhere from a young child to an early teen - although arguments can be made for any age.

Madotsuki is a playable character in the fighting game M.U.G.E.N, and in fan games and artwork she is commonly portrayed wielding her iconic kitchen knife."

.flow

A darker, bloody rendition of the Yume Nikki styled game. You play as Sabitsuki, whose name means "covered in rust". A lot of the worlds within Sabitsuki's "flow" are thematic, depressing, and can be downright scary.


Yume 2kki
http://yume2kki.wikia.com/wiki/Yume_2kki_Wiki
It's much like Yume Nikki 2.0! A collaboration among 2chan, Yume 2kki heavily expands on the amount of zany worlds, interesting events, and mini-games. There's even an extensive computer desktop system to poke around with! You might get lost in this game though. Features Urotsuki, whose name origins are possibly from the Japanese verb "to wander".

And? What do you think? =w=

You saw Kirby play Yume 2ikki and your know it. You baka.

Also, Beuchi, Derek, and I often watched Kirby stream Yume Nikki all the time. It's... hella interesting. Terrifying, but... interesting. Uboa's my favorite monster, though! \:D/

Thanks. Even saving was a bit complicated lol (pressing enter twice).
Sooo anyway, I already explored a lot, been through a lot of doors, and still I don't know what the heck is going on.
Plus, some places are just darn creepy.

Sure! :)

If you want to add some more eye candy besides Madotsuki, maybe you can find a nice dream world to take a snapshot of and go with it? :P

Lol truth xD
But it can be really funny to watch others play it~
For example: I let one of my friends play Yume Nikki, and after looking around before entering the dream world she decided that she wants to play that NASU game, thinking that she can beat it somehow, so I let her so. After some 20 minutes of trying she finally got more than 30 points~
The point of this is that, it's fucking hilarious to watch others rage over such a simple and hard yet somehow easy game.
Also, the character in that mini game looks somehow like a Toriningen.

I love all of these, but I think .flow is my favorite :P
Arian_old_1
Hehe... (<----nice way of starting a post self ^3^b)
I started playing Yume Nikki recently and i find the game quite relaxing :D
It reminds me of my own dreams just a bit more abstract~
Cyclohexane
I haven't played the game but I have seen a let's play of it, and I don't ever wanna touch it. Not that I think it's bad in anyway, in fact it does what it's set out to do remarkably well, and scared me to tears, not mentioning the trouble/fear to go to sleep the week after watching it.
So yeah, pretty well executed, if I trust my experience with it. By the way, I have watched a gameplay video of .flow, it did the same effect as Yume Nikki, except, well, it got worse.

It took me weeks just to find everything and I had to semi-reference a walkthrough just to experience everything in the game that I missed on my first playthrough.

Made a few videos here and there (a few are spoilers if you haven't made progress)

I remember writing instructions on how to do that about a few years ago and surprising everyone with it.
Did you find this on your own or did you see someone else do it?
Gundam-Dude
I believe I found it through your instructions then, lol
Pokebis
Meh, just curious. I didn't realize you could do it until I was picking around with files anyways.
I wonder if Kikiyama knew making your own snow would put out the fire and make it very difficult to do or not.

...and I still do it, even in real life *insert awesome face here*
btw I stared to listen to a remix of the song that plays when you finish the game and sudenly I heard a storm outside, and it apperantly stared to rain. Right now. Coinsidance? Who knows...
Also, when I want to load the game ( in .flow) a bunch of error messages appear after starting to dream idk lol
Usausatei
I can't seem to find the motivation to finish this game.
I think the last time I played I have around 20 effects.
Pokebis
Don't feel bad about using a guide. Some of them are hard to find without one.
