A Dream About Parking Lots

[h3]Wander about, frantically clicking unlock, while your therapist keeps droning on the phone, just another day in life...[/h3] Have you ever found yourself dreaming of a place filled with cars, and yet wherever you roam, you can't find your particular car? Well in this day and age when one can hardly afford a bus ticket, these kinds of questions might be as esoteric as this game's central premise proved to be. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3749938055 A Dream About Parking Lots is a short yet interesting walking simulator in which you find yourself talking to your therapist trying to decrypt your dreams of endlessly wandering strange parking lots. You walk, you talk and you frantically click your RKS longing for that familiar unlocking sound that gives you the affirmation that this is indeed your car. It is a really basic premise, and it works, kind of. The written dialogue is on the nose and weirdly autobiographical, yet kept me hooked for the conclusion of the session. The graphics are oddly blurred and distorted, giving the game a surreal sensation that really enhances the absurdly familiar dreamscape. There is a railroaded path towards the goal that more or less gives you the sensation of being herded, all while you try to make sense of your sidelined therapy session. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3749937693 This is one of those games that are hard to judge fairly. On one hand, the game was intriguing in its premise enough that I gave it a go. However, it proved to be a really short game. I finished its entire story and 100% achievements in under 40 minutes, and for the asking price this might be one of those games that will divide. [b]Conclusion:[/b] Recommended to those with a buck or two to spare with an interest in small-scale independent art-projects. If you don’t mind supporting a dev's slightly mundane recurring dream, this might be just the thing for you!

$52MXN bien gastados - TRY IT !!! Si te sientes atrapado en tu mente considero que este juego es una gran opción, yo, de cierta forma, me logré identificar con este "soñador" y ahora se que necesito terapia xd pero realmente tiene frases de gran impacto que necesitamos leer o recordar uwu (cuando lo juegues sabrás de qué frases hablo) y qué mejor que hacerlo mientras juegas en un mundo diseñado tan detalladamente en su narrativa, diseño, el environment se describe perfectamente con la frase "everything just fits" uwu Ahora a esperar lo próximo de Interactive Dreams! :3

Pretty cool story and game. I liked the part that says [spoiler] to go out and make that game. [/spoiler] I feel like we all could relate to that in one way or another. Told that to myself a bunch of time but [I] yeah, I don't know what's holding me back a lot of the times. [/I] Really awesome game that all of you made! Some things that I noticed are: [list] [*]The depth of field was way too strong—probably an artistic choice—but it does make the game feel a little blurry. Not a big deal; you get used to it. [*]The sensitivity is too slow (even when maxed out). Feels weird for someone used to high sens. [*]A little bit of a stutter when stuff like Steam notifications or the volume slider pops up on the screen. It doesn’t last long, but it hurts the pacing a bit. [/list] I enjoyed it, and I hope I can play more games from all of you!

THIS IS ART It had been such a long time since a game felt so organic to me. I want to be able to describe this game but simply because it makes no sense I can't and I love that. From what I can feel tho, the parking lots represent how we feel as humans when we are lost; a clear example of this is when one uses the key to try to find the car but depending on the location another car can be the one to beep. Also, when i reached the final two dreams, the game asks the player a very nice question that went something like 'Why try to make sense of this?' and that's when the realization just hit me, why am I really trying to find a car here? I mean it's a game of course and that's what I need to move from stage to stage but in the end for what purpose? And after finishing the game, I still can't answer that question and then that's when it's like the game stops talking to me and begins talking to the developers themselves which got me so engaged and fascinated at the fact that not even themselves can answer that question. Great game, it feels organic and this games like this are the reason of why they are considered art.

neat. gives off beginner's guide vibes

I'm not going to leave this game a negative review because I think it's decent, but it's so full of bugs that I had a hard time playing it. Like I'd have to avoid an area on the path cause otherwise my camera would untether from my body, and start flying away. Also no resolution options, and pretty bad depth of field effects making the game not look that good. I think unintentionally these glitches helped at the dream like nature of the experience, but the narative the game was telling wasn't really to relatable to me, and I felt the options had little effect on the dialogue. This game is good for what it is. A 3 dollar 40 minute experience either this or you a buy a McChicken.

What an incredible experience! It's a really good short game that makes you think, stop for a moment, and reflect on life. What scares me, what makes me feel lost, and how do I deal with it? I didn't think this game would guide me through all of this (and I loved it) Aesthetic environments and a story built with the same quality!

If I say too much, I'm going to spoil for you. What I can share though, is that this authoral 30 minutes game fully grasps the pulp of one of humanity's most pondered upon dillemas on poiesis and artistic creation.

Great game enjoyed my experience with it All Gamers are Bastards bought me here
