Onirike
Dreams are fed by our own desires. They dwell within us since we are born and this is what we call them until they become real. But… have you ever wondered what happens to dreams that never come true?

It's kinda like if Tim burton had a threesome with Monty Python and a world of goo.
Onirike. At first sight seems a bit creepy- and sure, it is weird. But it feels more dreamlike than anything, and honestly had a pretty hopeful vibe to it that made me smile when playing it. Ended up becoming one of my favorite platformers.
Onirike is a bizarre surrealist fairy tale that takes as much inspiration from Crash Bandicoot as it does from Tim Burton. It’s essentially a 3D platformer that would have been right at home on the PlayStation twenty years ago (although much better looking). It’s not particularly deep in any area, your abilities are fairly basic, the puzzles won’t pose any kind of challenge. In the modern landscape of inventive puzzle-platformers, it feels not as impressive and more like a cute little game to waste an afternoon on, but for all its limitations, it’s an enjoyable, stylish journey that’s fun while it lasts. But despite that I quite enjoyed the world that was created. I personally had fun with it. I do still enjoy games that may not be perfect, so on that note I do recommend it, just perhaps tamper your expectations a bit.

I definitely recommend!
A great indie platform adventure. I love the dash and invisible mechanic, it gave a unique gameplay to an oversaturated genre.
The world/level layout is fantastic.
The music is epic! It is errie but whimsical. And art style is awesome.

Curious gloomy world... I freaked out in the labyrinth! Fortunately you can turn invisible, lol.
I played in Spanish because I didn't really like the English voice. Happens!
The narration added a little something to the game, making it even more enjoyable.
The style reminds me of Tim Burton's animated movies.
I enjoyed discovering this gloomy, somewhat creepy world.
