Overview

yuque is a Japanese Yume Nikki Fangame created by 794810 in RPG Maker 2000. Publication was suspended from late 2020 to October 2024, with the most recent update (Ver.0.03.0) available for download.

Gameplay

Yuque is a traditional fangame. Sleeping in the bed lets you enter the dream world. From there, you can explore various worlds and collect effects (referred to as Side Effects, サイドエフェクト). Prior to version 0.03.0, these were called Buffers, バァファー. From version 0.02.5 onwards, certain Side Effects can be combined with one another. You can interact with the laptop on the desk to save the game.

Controls

• Move - Arrow Keys
• Interact/Select - Z/Space

Plot

You start as a girl named Nire who wears headphones and doesn't want to go out of her room. Once she's in the dream world she will not wear her headphones. Not much is currently known about the plot.

Side Effects (Effects)

Name	Image	Description
Go-Kart (ゴーカート)		Nire drives a Go-Kart, increasing her speed. Pressing Shift makes her honk the horn.
Cloud (あまぐも)		Nire sits on a cloud. Pressing Shift causes rain to fall.
Helmet (ヘルメット)		Nire wears a light helmet that lights up some dark places. Pressing Shift makes her shut the light off.
Pianica (けんばんハモニカ)		Nire carries a Pianica. Pressing Shift makes her play it.
Folding Chair (パイプいす)		Nire carries a folding chair as her weapon. Pressing Shift makes her sit on the chair. Interacting with any NPCs makes her kill them.
Karakasa (やぶれがさ)		Nire becomes a Karakasa-obake. Pressing Shift brings her back to the Nexus. Using an item found elsewhere in the dream world called the Umbrella Stand, Nire is able to place down a checkpoint anywhere within the dream world. The umbrella stand is accessible through the Skills menu, the same menu used to wake up. Using the Karakasa side effect with an umbrella stand placed down will take her back to said checkpoint instead of the Nexus.
Summer Clothes (なつふく)		Nire wears summer clothes. Pressing Shift ties her hair into twintails. If this effect is equipped in Snow World, Nire will shiver and put on a grey cardigan.
Ninja (にんじゃ)		Nire wears a ninja outfit. Pressing Shift makes her invisible and grants her stealth from chasers.
Bucket (バケツ)		Nire wears a bucket on her head. Pressing Shift makes her pull the bucket over her eyes, making the screen dark.
Polar Bear (しろくま)		Nire wears a polar bear outfit. Pressing Shift makes her howl which causes NPCs to avoid her. There's a random chance of the outfit being brown instead of white when equipping the effect.
Nest Hair (とりのすヘアー)		Nire's hair becomes an Afro. Pressing Shift makes a baby bird peek out of her hair. The bird has a chance to be either green, white or yellow. Prior to Version 0.03.0, it was known as Afro Hair(アフロヘアー).
Station Staff (えきいん)		Nire wears a station staff uniform. Pressing Shift makes her raise a red or green flag to freeze or unfreeze NPCs' movement.
Ashes (はい)		Nire's body becomes ashes. Pressing Shift causes ash to fall; each time you press Shift, Nire's body breaks down more and more as more ash falls, until she becomes a small pile of ash, rendering her immobile. Pressing Shift once more returns her to her original state and stops the ashfall.
Brunette (ブルネット)		Nire has long dark brown hair. Pressing Shift makes her sit down.
Illumination (でんしょく)		Nire's body becomes made of neon lights. Pressing Shift changes the screen color and causes Nire to flash different colors.
Nesting Doll (いれこ)		Nire becomes a nesting doll. Pressing Shift causes her to hop out and leave behind a bigger part of the doll behind as a marker. She can do this three times before reverting to her original size. This functions as both a way to leave markers in the dream world as well as a way to enter small entrances. Unlike most marker effects in other Yume Nikki fangames, the markers that are left behind by this effect stay, even if the player moves to another map.
