Overview

Drawing with Nat: Dream Diary is an English Yume Nikki fangame created by Jeledraws in RPG Maker VX ACE.

Gameplay

The Player explores the dreams of Nat, a black cat who enjoys creating art. Players enter the dreamworld by going to sleep in Nat's apartment. The Nexus of this game includes some additional rooms that act as either shortcuts to specific areas or help keep track of the number of forms that have currently been obtained. There are no dream doors within the nexus, instead an elevator is used that can take you to different starting worlds.

The goal of the game is to explore and collect various effects (Called "Forms" in this game) and also collect "Inspiration" which can be used to create drawings, drawings can be viewed within the players inventory at any time. There are 11 main forms to obtain and 2 secret forms, and there are 60 main drawings to find and create, as well as 5 secret drawings.

The Player can save their progress by interacting with Nat's desk whilst awake.

There is one ending to obtain which requires obtaining all 11 forms and all 60 drawings. The ending can be seen by entering Nat's balcony once this goal has been reached.
