Overview
Me (readable in English or Japanese (め / 目, Eye / Sprout)) is a Yume Nikki Fangame created by Isasapiens. The game stars Me, a girl who refuses to leave her room and uses her stereo to enter a dream world. Me was remade at an unknown date, converted from RPG Maker 2003 to RPG Maker VX Ace.
Me's atmosphere seems to draw inspiration from older fangames such as .flow, Yume 2kki and Hallucigenia in terms of its mixture of dark, visceral imagery and colorful, surreal imagery. In further reference to the title's multilingual definitions, motifs of eyes and sprouts are noticeable throughout the game.
Gameplay
Me's style of gameplay resembles both Lcd Dem and .flow, in which effects are not the only form of collectible and are instead used to help the player reach the secondary item type: Orbs. The objective of the game is to gather all Orbs and Effects.
Outside of the dream world, Me has a laptop that can be used to collect wallpapers, listen to BGM and view email given with orbs.
Me is vast and dense, with many events packed into an enormous dream world.
Plot
Outside of certain events the plot of the game is vague, the reason for Me locking herself in her apartment being unknown.
Effects and Items
There are 11 Effects found in the game. Their abilities can be used with the action key, Shift. Contrary to most fangames and the original Yume Nikki itself, all of the Effects found in Me have a purpose and can be used frequently. Effects can even be mixed together by selecting one Effect then another while the first Effect is still active. Effect Mixes combine the abilities of the two Effects, but other than that, they are only there for looks or to change the environment around them. There are a total of 10 Effect Mixes.
