MROI_
A downloadable game for Windows
A dream emulator made for the LSDJAM 2024
People see me as a miserable thing, stuck in the world of my own creation. I pity them. I am granted freedom. I am blessed to create and to see what depths of my subconscious have to offer, I am not bound to the physical. I do not care for your world, you have nothing of use.

божа стыль 10/10 рэкамендую шчыра🙏🙏
this is just PEAK seriously!! I didn't expect something so stylistically pleasing when launching this. Reminds of backrooms a bit and the mc + the story are peak too??damn????? I'm a huge freak over graphics like this and it just hit me right in the heart. this isnt a long expierience(but depends on how u orient in there) but ohh it was good. AND it's free like thats insanely good
p.s. Вырашыла паглядзець на сацсеткі аўтараў і омгг гэта нешта беларускае!!! Гэта проста неверагодна i love my cuntry калі ласка працягвайце!! Не разумею чаго ў беларускіх колах(прынамсі ў белтг) увогуле ніхто пра вас ня кажа. Іду пісаць пра гэтую гульню пост і раіць літаральна ўсім беларусам обожа гэта проста цуд!!! Дзякуй вялікі за вашую справу каліласачка працягвайце дзе блін вам заданаціць скажыце
Wildly ambitious for a jam game, and a very good experience. I love the art, especially the MCs work in the gallery (which I assume are the game author’s work). I haven’t fully explored a certain extended aspect of the game (no spoilers), but I intend to tomorrow.
I’ve paid for games with less content, by the way. Not to say you shouldn’t finish this (you absolutely should), but this is, by itself, a worthy project. I guess what I mean to say is thank you, your work is cool and thoughtful and I would totally pay you so you can keep making it. Excited for whatever comes next
Game's very interesting and I enjoyed searching the dream. The face on the P.C though. Anywho, keep it up.

作者可以让游戏支持中文吗
Gave it a shot please. Very cool looking game, but after going in loops for an extended period of time I lost my will to continue.
Hi! Could you please upload a compatibility build using Godot 3 / OpenGL / GLES so it can run on older devices or Wine/Winlator? The current build requires Vulkan and doesn’t work :,) .
Hello, I'm the coder of the game! We tried to, but sadly a lot of game's shaders break on OpenGL or change the look of locations, which requires fixing on every single location individually. So we most probably will get to this only in the full version of the game, sorry :(
this feels like i am playing an arg i love this game
Will there be a full version of the game?
Can you really talk to the girl in the "road" level? I've reached the gut but when I open the game again there is a road blockage (in the "road" level) that I can do nothing about. I've seen a few gameplays on YT and it looked like I've found all the locations of the girl.
Hello, thank you for playing the game! You cannot reach the girl on the road level and that's intentional, if you think that you have went through all dialogues search for a black room full of televisions to reach the ending.
I've reached that room and I've talked to the guy which results in the game closing itelf.
That is the ending of this game (but not the end of the story)
You can feel the passion in every details, amazing game and story. I genuinely think this is one of the best contemplative game I played, it's so pure and magnificent.
It reminds me of evangelion in a strange way, and I was always interested into psychedelic type of artstyle. This is deeply connecting to (I believe) many people experiencing this situation, including myself years ago.
I hope you all the best for the future, you can be proud of this!
Thank u so much
sadly the game keeps "blinking" on my pc after launch, probably cuz of 21:9 resolution. is this fixable?
also, am i able to change keybinds? my spacebar is broken.
i really want to play this...
I can't finish the game, for some reason I can't talk to the girl in the Road, and that's the last place she's located.
If you cannot progress to the ending location then that means you missed her in some other location, but in the Road you cannot talk to her.
in the ""heaven"" (sky, no buildings and a lot of white npcs and 1 red) the girl blends too well with the npcs and i didn't notice at first time. try there
Yes! The "sky" girl is very hard to be fund.I almost overlooked.And in the fleshcity apart from the girl in the open areas, there is also a door here, and inside is a girl.
did u notice codes? it so cool, searching information, some kind of arg. if dev read this, please, tell how much codes are there? sorry 4 my English btw
Hello! Thank you for playing! I think there are around 46-49 codes in total, sadly don't quite remember the exact number :(
oh, thanks
really cool
Really cool game! Reminds me of Yume Nikki mixed with LSD. I had some issues with the navigation, but still found this game really wonderful. Excited to see what else you work on!
Mouse sensitivity randomly drops for me every minute or so, goes like 1/10th sensitivity for a few seconds then jumps back to normal, not sure if it's something intended but makes it a bit hard to play for me... (FPS didn't change during it btw)
Hi!
I honestly have no idea what might be causing that, I'm sorry I have never encountered this bug before D:
In my case, mouse sensitivity is different in the dream world (uses settings) and in the waking world (looks like it uses the default value)
found out about this game through twitter, and i just finished playing it :) really love the visuals and the story, it left me longing to be able to dpeak to the girl again.
i got a bit frustrated with the navigation by the end of my run, i was looking for the girl everywhere but couldn't find her again except in Road where i couldn't reach her. luckily i found a full gameplay on youtube and discovered i was one dialogue away from reaching the ending haha.
i also saw on twitter that this might become a longer game in the future so i look forward to that (ᵔᴥᵔ)
this game is just what i was seeking. Im literally her
hello, I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but how do you save your progress? Each time I quit I just get back to the first conversation with the girl
Hello! I just released a patch that fixes the saving system of the game. It didn't function properly before, but now the game should automatically save your progress through the dialogues/monologues and also automatically load it on launch.
Yes, now it works, thanks!!
Looks like the conversation in flesh2 doesn't save, I have to redo it every time I open the game.
cool game & vibe, refreshingly short
awesomesauce
For anyone scared, I just ran it on my computer and it just opened the game...
Really good soundtrack btw...
the warning did scare me i'll admit, thanks
COMMENT SECTION SO NICE AND SUPPORTIVE TILL THE HOOD TWITTER FINDS OUT ABOUT THE GAME
so now people are not allowed to ask questions? Sorry i didn't know it was a false positive, not everyone is a genius
this is funny
So... Could someone please explain this to me? How is this even allowed on Itch.io? Having a download option for a single .EXE file is really sus, man. I found your game on twitter and it looked so good but aint noway i'm running ts. This was a VirusTotal analysis btw: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/f84f487f4e907ecbdb40830f03ae0d1dee1b02899486...
are you actually three years old? how else do you expect a program to be packaged
how about your fix your shit on Virustotal so retards like me don't have to worry about it?
i'm not the game dev genius
Hey, coder of the game here! The game is packaged into a single file for convenience sake, through the built in feature of the used game engine - Godot (you can read about this feature here on the official documentation, it also mentions the false positives this feature can cause in more primitive antiviruses: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.3/getting_started/workflow/export/exporting_fo... )
The Acronis service that gave this false positive is mostly used by people for backups and has a very primitive and dumb antivirus solution that is known for giving a lot of false positives.
Hope this explains it.
Thanks for breaking it down and sorry if i came across a bit rude.
aint nobody care what no gridinsoft thinks
awesome!!
really cool game!! I liked the world and the characters felt too real. I wish there was a bit more resolution at the end but it was great nonetheless!!!
this was great, amazing art direction
finished it yesterday. loved it sm especially the art rooms
goated game, gave me more chills than i thought a game could possibly give thank you for creating it
i really enjoy mroi_! the only issue i have with it is that finding different dreams is sometimes a bit hard. the story really benefits from the setting, seeing as the character you will be talking to lives inside your head--they already know a bit about you and your dreams, so the conversations you have can be interesting while maintaining the short runtime due to the pre-established connection you have. overall, love the visuals, love the soundtrack, its really neat. <3
This was incredible, I'm in love with this game.
Keep up the amazing work <3
what this
Awesome LSD:DE/Yume Nikki type game.
i know touching on topics such as isolation is hard for people, but this was so beautifully done i loved it
i love it :3
