This is just great, makes me want to tinker with Dreams.

It's amazing. I love it so much, the only drawback is that it's tied to the Playstation. If it weren't, it would be a much bigger presence because the creation tools were unlike anything I've ever seen before.

It would be great if they could at least bring the runtime to PC so that people could distribute their games more widely - although at that point you might as well have the whole editor too.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot as well. I think it’s doubtful that they’ll port it since MM is owned by Sony. But I agree it would be excellent.

What I’m imagining is something like Dreams that is supported by a whole editor. There’s just something about their approach that feels so much more accessible than any game dev tool I’ve come across. It’s really amazing.

Once WebGPU becomes a reality, it might even be possible to port Dreams content to the web.
