Overview

Someday is a Yume Nikki fangame made by Jojogape (DeviantArt, Pixiv and Tumblr accounts).

In this game, you play as Itsuki, a boy who is trapped in a low-budget apartment because of a typhoon. The only thing left for him to do is sleep, and dream.

Gameplay

Someday is a traditional-styled fangame. The goal is to explore and collect all the effects. It has a light atmosphere and has very bright, unique graphics. It is known for its many areas to explore in the large nexus.

A new feature added in version 0.03 is the Feats system. Feats can be achieved by doing certain things in Itsuki's dream world, such as getting a certain effect, or interacting with a certain number of objects. Getting them is optional, though sometimes they unlock new content. There are 32 feats to accomplish.

Effect use is the 1 key, and 9 is used to wake up (Itsuki covers his eyes). As of 0.06, you can also deactivate effects by pressing 3.

Plot

Itsuki is trapped inside his apartment due to a strong storm outside (looking out the window gives you a glimpse of the storm). Occasionally the power in his apartment goes out due to the storm, but dreaming and waking up again usually fixes it. It is unknown if he dreams for fun, or because there is nothing else to do waiting for the storm to subside. Most of Itsuki's dreams are very light, so it is possible he dreams to escape the real world in a similar way to Chie . Not much is known about any more plot or events quite yet.

Effects

There are 24 effects in the game. Effects are used with the 1 key, but most effects are cosmetic.

Effect	Image	Description
Doodle		Itsuki becomes a colorful outline of himself.
8-bit		Itsuki becomes a low resolution version of himself.
Nerd		Itsuki turns into a nerd.
Scooter		Itsuki rides a scooter that doubles his speed. It doesn't work underwater.
Wrench		Itsuki's weapon. Can be used to break open orange boxes for money to kill NPCs. When equipped, some NPCs run away from Itsuki. Certain NPCs will become chasers when hit with it.
Raincoat		Itsuki wears a yellow raincoat. Equipping the effect also makes it rain.
TV		Itsuki's head turns into a TV. Pressing the 1 key switches the TV on to a mountain landscape.
Candle Holder		Itsuki turns into a walking candle holder with a lit candle. This effect lights up dark places.
Sick		Itsuki's speed decreases and he gets more pale and sick-looking. Pressing 1 makes Itsuki sneeze, then sniff his mucus back in.
Monochrome		Itsuki turns into a monochrome child.
Scarf		Itsuki wears a warm white scarf. This effect is most likely a reference to the character Russia from Hetalia, because of the place where it is found and the fact that the author is a fan of this manga.
Fox		Itsuki grows fox ears and tail. Equipping this effect allows him to jump over high ledges.
Clockworker		Itsuki becomes a clockworker. Pressing the 1 key warps Itsuki back to the nexus.
Glitch		Itsuki's sprite becomes glitched and distorted.
Megaphone		Itsuki's head turns into a megaphone. Pressing the 1 key makes a sound play.
Classic		Itsuki becomes his sprite from Version 0.00 of Someday.
Bald		Itsuki loses his hair.
Diving Suit		Itsuki wears a diving suit. It works as a speed effect underwater.
Mercury		Itsuki becomes a blob of mercury. Interacting with cracks on walls makes Itsuki pour through them.
Blob		Itsuki becomes a walking blob of color. Pressing 1 key allows you cycle through various colors of the blob.
Healing Aura		Itsuki gets a green aura. Interacting with broken doorways while standing on certain marked places fixes them. It also heals some NPCs.
Wood		Itsuki becomes a wooden doll. Pressing Enter while standing on a tree sign on the ground with a wooden doll nearby swaps your and the doll's positions, allowing you to reach new places.
Tomato		Itsuki gets a tomato for a head.
