What sets this game apart from the original Yume Nikki and many of its fangames is the lack of effects, as the author's main intention is to stress the importance of exploration as the primary mode of gameplay, rather than the hide-and-seek approach other games may have taken. The exploration worlds as of the current version are fairly linear.

The aforementioned protagonist has been thus-far unnamed and ambiguously gendered. They wear all black with green shoes and have mid-length, reddish-brown hair and eyes of the same shade. Contrary to the ''-tsuki ''characters from the original Yume Nikki and its close spiritual successors, the sprites of the main character maintain a relatively realistic proportion of head to body, making them seem taller and more aged. However, like Madotsuki, their eyes appear closed.


At the time of the game's opening, they seem to take a resigned perspective on life -- their main pastime, aside from monitoring the controls of the planet-like station, is sleeping, perhaps evidence of their basic human need to initiate social contact, even if it is through an ersatz method.

This could be seen as an attempt to fulfill their basic human need of social contact, even if through artificial means.


As can be surmised by the plot summary, the main character resides in a plant-infested space station. Their bedroom is an annex to what appears to be a main office, wherein lie piles of books, a few tables, and an exit to the outside area, where the player can see what was once Main's attempt at a garden, which now as become overgrown.

Overview

Miserere (Latin for Have mercy) is a unique sci-fi Yume Nikki fangame by Owl. The game stars an unnamed protagonist who has lived in solitude for twelve years on Harmony, a space station travelling to the center of the universe.

Gameplay

The lack of effects sets this game apart from other traditional fangames, as the author's main intention is to stress the importance of exploration as the primary mode of gameplay rather than the hide-and-seek approach other games may have taken. The exploration worlds as of the current version are fairly linear.

Another difference between Miserere and the original Yume Nikki is in aesthetic; the former features a much more realistic art style and music with more character than the usual atmospheric ambience.

Plot

Originally thrilled by the prospect of such an adventure, the protagonist has now grown weary of their isolation in space and finds solace only in the exploration of their lucid dreams. However, their mental state is declining by the start of the game and with it, the stability of the dream world.

At the time of the game's opening, the protagonist seems to take a resigned perspective on life - their main pastime, aside from monitoring the controls of the planet-like station, is sleeping. This could be seen as an attempt to fulfill their basic human need of social contact, even if through artificial means.

The main character resides in a plant-infested space station. Their bedroom is an annex to what appears to be a main office containing piles of books, a few tables, and an exit to the outside area. Outside, the player can see what was once the protagonist's attempt at a garden, which has now become overgrown. The bedroom itself contains, besides the bed, a shaggy abstract rug, a single lamp, and some plants. A helmet is placed next to the bed.
