Gameplay
You start out playing as Aya in a mostly barren room and access the dream world through a black book on Aya's bed, Aya then takes a different form in the dream world where you can explore.
Additionally, you also have an unlockable character called Aine, unlocked as a playable character after completing the task. Aine's dream world has many of similarities with Aya's dream world, but in grayscale because of her colorblindness.
Unlike most of the fangames, the game doesn't have any background music, and has only 8 sound effects.
You can do some action in certain effects by long pressing Z button.
Plot
Aya enters her dream world from the black book on her bed. When in the dreamworld you are still Aya, but her appearance differs. It is possible Aya wishes to become this dream Aya.
