About a day ago, I had this amazing dream that I had when I went to sleep, which was represented in the form of a series of locations that I was traveling through. It was lucid with darkness and lighted areas with different colors, and it changed as I traveled through one location to another location. It ended when I discovered at the end of this chain of locations that were connected together, a monster like a dragon. The dragon chased me
out of all the connected locations that previously traveled through to the beginning of where I supposedly started. And thats not the whole of it - because there more details like characters in the movie. Now, god help me, I wish could do anything to have that dream again, because it was either a game design or a movie in the form of a animation about something. Now the problem is that when I have these lucid and detailed dreams, when I wake up - 80% to 90% of the dream disappears from my memory, in terms of the images and details. I have had this happen to me several times, and no matter how I try to recall the details of a dream that inspires me with a game design represented as a movie animation - I cant recall it. Its the worse feeling to know that just a few moments ago - I was experiencing the greatest dream in my sleep and yet, now I cant recall it to even write it down, because 80% to 90% of the details are now lost. Nothing , I could do - would be able to repeat the dream so I could have the same experience if I dreamed again.
I would do anything to remember the dream with the dragon in it. But its really hard to wake up , and write the details down to something that feels
like you watched 2 hour movie inside your head, that your inspired by. Even if I were to TRY and remember the details, half of it wouldn't be accurate to
what the dream was about. This was a 3 dimensional game, it was like a first person point of view, like I was traveling in a space ship through a connection
of dungeons or rooms. It;s like a collection of influences ( or confluences ) from maybe movies I had once watched long ago, or a video game that one of my friends was playing, that I was watching. It drives me crazy when I have these really cool dreams that I wish I could write down. But I am back at the problem that 80% to 90% of the dream is gone. It could be described as a phantasmagoria dream where the scene changes because I am traveling in progression from one location to another, and then in reverse to escape the dragon chasing me. I would be making up the dream if I were to try to remember it. But it was like a movie, more than a game design. And thats it.... thats my problem... when I have these amazing dreams and wake up - their gone forever. It would be lucky if I had the same dream again.
My dream makes the game that I am currently working on, look like crap. I feel like , I wish I could design a game like the dream I had , or create an animation like the dream I had. I was ready to toss my current game design, but I didn't. I've had this happen to me before in my own dreams. I dont know why I cant recall it - but thats it.
Have any of you ever had this problem, when you wake up from an amazing dream that represents a game design in the form of a movie animation to recall, just to know that in the next hour its gone from your mind?
What are your experiences?
