And since you may ask what this is.

 

The game is a platformer that was funded through a kickstarter in August.

It is a platformer reminiscant of both old school mario and sonic.

You play as Giana and travel through a dream/nightmare world, collecting crystals as you go and trying to *spoiler*.

But Giana has grown up... well, has become a teenager. The nightmares she had as a little girl no longer scare her, while the cutesy things she liked as a kid she now rejects. As a result she has control over her dream. You can switch seamlessly between the two dream version, changing the environment, the enemies and your abilities and the soundtrack. Cute Giana in the nightmare carelesly spins and twirls through the air, while angry punk Giana bashes and dashes through things in the nice dream world.

 

It's a challenging game and ramps up the difficulty.

It's absolutely gorgrous and the twisting through dreams actually does work seamlessly.
