In the world of Arcadea, people can accomplish their dreams. How? Through video games of course! Everybody who lives in Arcadea has a special arcade machine they can visit in their dreams that lets them fulfill their strongest wishes. Whether it’s to go on an adventure, or make friends, or fall in love, or solve a mystery, or completely start a new life, there’s a game made just for them...

By playing these arcade machines, you can find out a lot about a person...their aspirations and their goals for example. Oh and also their regrets, their insecurities, and their biggest mistakes. Huh...video games can’t be that deep right? Must be a bug or something.

Speaking of which, how do you even get to this world in the first place?


The game follows Maisie, a new arrival to Arcadea. She’s not very interested in all this gaming stuff; her only goal is to find an important person. But along the way, she can’t help but be roped into other people’s problems. She also can’t help that the arcade machines seem to glitch around her. Alot.

Hello everyone~ Thank you for the amazing feedback for the demo! The comments have been overwhelmingly positive which is amazing for me, who has (very) little experience with game making!

Of course, special thanks to everyone who pointed out bugs and glitches! I have provided the bug fix list below (8/28/18):

-added a sparkly effect to the alien computer in MBM
-fixed direction on fisherman’s tackle box
-fixed variable count on Emi outside of house
-disabled the menu while star is moving
-fixed various typos and spacing errors

The updated ARCADEA demo v0.2 is now available to download!

Short adventure demo. Demo is split cleanly into two parts, an ARPG and the main story itself. Main game plays like pocket mirror/aria's story and those glittery horror rpg's, but I'm sure yall can tell from the screenshots. I assume this is a casual game so perhaps it can benefit from the bait lasting a bit longer? Well see.

Haha thank you for the playthrough~ Yeah, it's supposed to be a more casual game! Of course, as you travel through the isles, the difficulty increases, so the puzzles in the demo are easier in comparison to the rest of the game.
I kind of want to visit this world... a machine that makes dreams come true through video games?? Wow.
To tell ya the truth, I mainly play horror games, but I found this one and had to play the demo. It was a fantastic play through! I forgot to save though, got maimed, and had to play through the whole demo again. It's a really fun and cute game. I can't wait to see how it turns out!

AWW MAN that sucks! Hopefully it wasn't too bad to play through again! (The skip text button should be useful lol) Thank you, I'm happy you enjoyed it so far :D
The game is so beautiful! The characters too, even with the "darker" parts of their personalities, I'm sure everyone has something they don't wanna show. Hey, that's probably why they are in Arcadea in first place.

And Maisie is an angel, she is so cute...

At least she will until she finds her brother, let's see how her determination to rescue him clashes with her brother desires. Oh man, I can't wait

Thank you so much~! Haha I'm glad you like the characters so far~ Can't wait to show all of them in more depth!

YEAH Maisie's cool. I'm trying to go for a cute...yet serious, determined badass haha She may be a little less likable as the game goes on c:



Any recent developments in the project ? I'm really looking forward to any updates as I really like this game.

Hiya! Progress has been a bit slow due to life getting in the way, unfortunately. No major updates as of late, but I am working on a very dialogue-heavy section of the game and there's not much to show :c. I am planning on Twitch streaming some game development soon though! (Will announce the date soon) Also, I am more active on my Tumblr Development Blog than on RMN so the best place to get updates would be there!
Thank you for the interest!

Are you making all the art assets by yourself?

I drew all of the character portraits and cgs and some of the sprites, but I also use free-to-use assets for mapping~

Hi! Yes I try to post monthly updates on my tumblr! I'm not that active on RMN sorry!
I really liked how you made the most of the graphics and the music compliments the game really well too, it's cute and uplifting!
There was an interesting puzzle there I haven't come across before so props to you for that.
I'm looking forward to see what the finished version will be like :)

Personally I always prefer less dialogue and more exploring so it suits me well that the main character doesn't speak unless she has something important to say.
Super cute houses! The one with all the sunflowers makes me long for summer.

Thank you so much!~ I also prefer less dialogue and more exploring so I try to keep cutscenes short and maps interesting haha I'm glad you share my sentiment!~
