Hi all -
I'd like to express how happy I am that so many people have played and enjoyed Hypnagogia: Boundless Dreams thus far. I received a massive amount of critiques and suggestions via the demo's feedback form, and tried my best to work what I could into the game given my limited coding abilities. I'm thankful for all of you.
As for any future updates and further development, I 100% plan on implementing these specific things over the next few months or so. These are features which I simply did not have time for prior to the initial launch. They include, but are not limited to:
[list]
[*] A [b]level/chapter select mode[/b] which unlocks after completing the game once.
[*] Steam-specific [b]achievements/trophies[/b].
[*] Additional menu options, including a [b]v-sync option[/b] and an option which you can [b]change sprint from hold to toggle[/b] and vice versa.
[/list]Other things I'd like to implement, but are [b]not guaranteed[/b]:
[list]
[*] [b]Mac[/b] and [b]Linux[/b] releases.
[*] At least [b]3 additional secret dream worlds[/b] to find (I had originally planned on each main dream having one secret world).
[*] Developer [b]commentary[/b] mode.
[*] A fun [b]cheat code[/b] to unlock the jetpack in any level.
[/list]The game as it currently exists is more or less how I originally envisioned it, flaws and all. Other than possible graphical or lighting enhancements, I have no intentions on going back in to directly change any content or story elements. Overall I'm not only happy with the way it turned out, but surprised I was able to get as much done as I did in such a short amount of time. I put many, many things in my life aside to work on this project, but I believe it was all worth it. As a developer I learned a lot about what to direct my focus on, as well as what not to, and how to have a more efficient workflow.
If you've purchased the game and enjoyed it, you have my unending thanks. For now, I have no plans to create a third Hypnagogia game. However, the IP is very special to me and I will have it on standby the minute that day comes.
I have some special plans and ideas for the future of Boundless Dreams I can't discuss quite yet, but keep an ear to the ground.
Until next time,

TL;DR: Thanks for buying the game, plans to implement new features soon.
