Features
Branching Dialogue!
Dream & Sugar features branching dialogue purposefully written to let you create your own story. Each scene is individually written, with no two paths being exactly the same. You'll get to see the full dialogue of your choices before you choose, so the surprises will come from the twists and turns as you speak to your friends and lovers. Will you be brash? Funny? Empathetic? Or mix and match your responses unpredictably!
Unique Endings!
Find love or heartbreak as you navigate through a variety of social situations. Make choices about where to go for dates, who to flirt with, and how to respond to social encounters. Your choices can lead you to one of more than ten unique endings! Will you make friends or lovers? Will you focus on your relationships? Your career? Or yourself? Only you can decide!
LGBTQ+ Friendly!
Dream & Sugar is proud to offer an all-inclusive romance experience. During character creation, you can change your character's name, choose your physical gender presentation, and your pronouns (including non-binary!). Your character choices do not prevent you from pursuing any of the game's romantic options, and even include an option to play the game completely aromatically! Receive different dialogue reflecting your choices, without being prohibited from experiencing the full scope of the game!
Interactive Art Minigame!
Have a creative vision? During the story you'll be given the option to draw in our art minigame! These images can be saved to your computer to share with your friends and family. If illustration isn't your strong suit or you just really want to get back to the story, you won't be forced to look at blank canvases. Dream & Sugar does come with default images drawn by our staff and demo team for those who would prefer to move past the minigame.

A fun and quick VN. Sound effects and music are nice and some good looking character designs. I finished one of the narrative endings in about an hour. A decent length for a free game.

Dream & Sugar is a very short but wholesome story with a really relaxing ambience. The jazz and white noise backgrounds were very soothing and the characters (Riley, Hugo, and Bennett - as well as the smaller NPC appearances) are really charming with simple but well-written dialogue. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a story with insightful dialogue, wholesome romance but also the option to stay single and pursue friendship without offending the characters, and gameplay breaks where you can make your own digital art! My only criticism is that there are some errors in the gendering of some dialogues - some paths automatically assume that you are female even if you're playing as a male-presenting MC with gender neutral pronouns, which isn't a huge gripe but did kind of take me out of the moments a little when it happened. It wasn't consistent across the whole game though - most of the time the pronouns and everything were correct, so it took me by surprise when one of the NPCs called me "young lady". Initially I thought that it was going to be a roleplay moment where I could choose to correct them or let it slide, but then it just moved on and the MC had no comment so I'm assuming that it wasn't deliberate and was actually just a mix-up with dialogue. Despite this minor thing, the game itself is really well-done and the character art is great! Highly recommend for a short relaxing choose-your-own-adventure experience, especially if you are someone who enjoys playful banter.
I like this short story; it's not too hard to understand for a non-English player. It's always a good thing when developers provide the opportunity to play their game freely. However, I’m having issues with achievements that don’t unlock on Steam, even though I’ve already completed the appropriate actions.
