7.3/10 - Such an interesting prototype that has me confused, (20-40 mins), To preface, this game is not for everyone for a variety of reasons. This game is difficult especially if you don't pickup on the queues that it provides.
The game is beautiful in it's own strange artsy way, but I can see many people being put off by it due to how much flashing and visual hallucinations there are in this game. The game has chaotic structure but you really don't realize it until you start to understand the mechanics whether that's visually or auditory. I also can't image the experience this game would provide on drugs as it would be terrifying.
This game is a prototype and I would love to see what more this game can offer as it's an unique experience that you rarely come across. So i'm hoping a full game off this does come out.
However I do have a few issues with this game, this includes the barrier of entry of this game as it's difficult at times. Having some additional elements at the start to help out in the coding section ( I progressed though to a point but got stuck as I couldn't find the right word so I had to watch a video to progress) or 3D section (It took me 10 mins to even realize the main mechanic). My last critique are the visuals, although amazing are disorientating due to the swift black and white flashing contrasts which did cause my head to slightly hurt ( I'm unsure how this would be fixed except for it being slightly toned down which could detract from the game).
Nah, he had IRL stuff going on for a while, but is working on the game in his free time, and is slowly working his way to a release. I wouldn't expect it soon as there is still a lot to do; but he is 100% intent on releasing it based on stream discussions.
The name "Memory of a Broken Dimension" is the perfect way to describe this game. If I had computer data transmitted directly into my brain, this is how it would look at feel. The game will not appeal to most people, because it's 'loud and confusing', but that fact works in its favor (game starts at 2:15:37)
Interesting. Since 2012, you're developing this one, aren't you, ya? I hope you can launch I would like see whole. The ending is the memory dump, isn't it? Or I step or going to wrong way?
I remember playing this year ago and I'm waiting for it ever since. I hope you won't leave it and one day I'll be able to play it. It's the most stunning thing I've ever seen here. Wish you luck and if you'd need someone for beta testing the game, count me in :D.
Echoing everyone else, this is seriously phenomenal and it makes me horrified and alienated and awestruck in a way only NaissanceE has done for me before. I really do hope you resume developing this in the future because what's already here is breathtaking.
It's rare to find an experience this fresh and visually arresting. Really great concept, and the puzzle of the prototype was satisfying once I learned how to get my bearings in such a strange space. Really does feel like you're trespassing.
i doubt it (sadly). xra probably got tired of it and scrapped the idea along with all his social media.(game didn't receive a lot of coverage) his twitter been inactive since 2017. if anyone has any information on the whereabouts of xra reply to this comment.
This game is really interesting the asthetic is amazing with the sounds and fragmented geometry i didn't looked for a walkthrough online so i kind of got stuck at the part where you are making a stair case of meshes, using bash only once in a while figuring out how to join this static world was already really fun in it self, just the moment where you finally get to dive with this agressive loading was hilariously good ! Keep dreaming

I really hope this is finished or atleast a new update is released
Is this normal?
uh i got stuck literally on the first 3D encounter
the site went down huh so the game probably ended here
He's still working on it
Oh nice
Where did he say that?
He streams on twitch, link in description
sadly this is the only response i've been seeing for the past 8 years. "Q: is this game dead? A: no, he streams on twitch."
at this point where the developer is absolutely silent to the public except for the mute twitch streams, the game is, unfortunately, as good as dead.
Wdym mute twitch streams? He does interact with the chat. He's cool afaik.
But fair, no one is sure when it will be finished, it's done when it's done. Sure some can interpret that as "dead".
Nah, he had IRL stuff going on for a while, but is working on the game in his free time, and is slowly working his way to a release. I wouldn't expect it soon as there is still a lot to do; but he is 100% intent on releasing it based on stream discussions.
If I follow you on here will I become notified when the game releases? I want to throw money at you, been following this project for yeaaaaars

how do I make things solid?

Bruh, is this even being developed anymore? It's been 5 years and all we have is one trailer. I love the demo to death, I NEED this game ;-;
Right!? I totally agree! ;n;

Memory of a Broken Dimension
i am not able to play it because it needs to be updated to work with macOS high sierra 10.13.4.
it would be great if you could try to update it
got past the initial dos part in to the world but now i dont know what to do. how do i move the objects in to one piece as some of the reviews say.
It seems to be about perspective.
I feel like was I be dreamming! It's amazing! This aesthetic is very cool and impressive! Good job!
Very impressive, can't wait to see the final product on steam!
best sales pitch ive ever read
I played it back in 2012! Or somewhere near. I dig this game, it tickles my perceptions so much I get instant fear attacks and I love it.

make sure to wishlist this
Please get rid of the command line section. it really isn't fun and it's quite frustrating and acts as a barrier to the meat and fun of the game.
I thought it was fun.
I think it adds to the eerie mysterious atmosphere of the game. I'd say it should be expanded.
Why i just see code? I can't get it start!! How to play? Need tutorial or something wrong???
OK, I will try. Thank you.
when is the release date for the full game?
Still waiting for the full game! Update soon, perhaps?
