Dig into an overview of what you can do when starting the game, check out the Story mode and meet its lead characters, then enjoy a showcase of how easy it is to create environments and levels using either PS Move or Dualshock 4 controllers.

Studio Director Siobhan Reddy, Art Director Kareem Ettouney, Technical Director Alex Evans and Creative Director Mark Healey offer an overview of what Dreams is all about.

Here’s your first look at the three interweaving narratives that make up Dreams’ central Story Mode, all built using the very same tools that you’ll have access to.

Kotaku- Dreams For PS4 Is Hard To Explain, But It Looks Brilliant

Quote:Dreams does not really make sense until you see the creative tools that were used to make it. Those tools are given to every player. Unlike LittleBigPlanet, or indeed any other game that invites you to create your own levels, Dreams does not limit you to collaging together textures, items, music, characters et cetera created for you by the developer. It lets you create every single one of those thingsyourself, if you want. Once I realized that every tiny detail in the single-player levels was made with these tools, from the suitcases on a train platform to the flying dragon with its emphatic facial expressions—and then I realized that I could make something like that, too—I began to understand the full scope of Dreams, and what it is trying to make possible.

IGN- PSX 2017: Dreams is Beautiful, Complicated, and Has Endless Potential

Quote:Dreams is a hard game to explain. It is a game, but it’s also a creation tool, a social network, a film studio, a music editor, and so much more, all wrapped into a single package.

PSU- Dreams for PS4 is the ultimate creation engine

Quote:Dreams is an incredibly deep experience, but only as deep as you make it. No interest in creation, as quick and accessible as those tools are? Sit back and enjoy auto-surf. Let Dreams stitch together various community creations into a loose, two-hour play session. Filter your experience by tone (cute, horror, action, etc.), by game type, or with custom tags. Search for creators by name, or find any topic and subject matter using text search. Like something you see but have ideas for making it better? Take that content and publish a Remix. Want to know all the assets and creators that went into making something? View its Genealogy, a branching cookie trail that shows all content and creators involved plus relevant Remixes. Don’t care for that complexity? Start a project with baked-in characters and environments. Invite your friends to be collaborators and add their touch. Publish it, or keep it a private workspace.

DigitalTrends- Dreams’ is a game about making games, and it goes as deep as you want

Quote:The ultimate goal is that, as users create and upload stuff, the growing compendium of shareable elements that anyone can use will form the backbone of a massive, collaborative community. And if you use someone's original music or their original character or their original animations in your level, Dreams automatically credits them in your creation -- which makes it possible for others to see who made what, and potentially follow that person, commend them, and find their other work.

But while Dreams' capabilities are complex, using it is meant to be as simple as possible. Most everything can be controlled intuitively with the motion capabilities of the DualShock 4 controller, and the developers said they're working to make performance the means by which things are added to the game. That means if you want to add a simple animation to something, like moving a platform back and forth for a character to jump onto, you just select the object, set the game to record an animation, and then move your controller however you want the platform to move. Stop recording and the animation is there in the game.

Some info:
- Dream is coming in 2019.
- For the open beta MM will be inducting players in waves starting the week of January 8th
- Think LBP in 3D and with way more possibilities.
- Couch co-op up to 4 players.
- Local multiplayer on launch, online planned after.
- There will be a beta before the release.
- You can play and create using the normal Dualshock 4 controller, Move is an option.
- There are also tutorials built into the game.
- PSVR support is coming post launch.
- There is a full physics system included in dreams for things like gravity, weight, and projectiles etc...
- PS4 Pro support: 4k output or 'arcade mode' (higher frame rate) at 1080p. But all gameplay, tools and content is the same on pro & base.
- You can share everything you make and collaborate with other people.
- You can download other people's creations and play or use them as assets in your creations.
- You can gain XP on your profil depending on what you do, for instanceas as animator, player, or designer. That allows you to easily find people that like doing specific things.
- Thermometer limit is about complexity, not size.
- You can link the levels.
- You can create 100 levels on 1 map, and you can put 4 maps in one
All the things you can make in Dreams.

The NDA has been lifted so now people can stream the game to their pleasure, it looks pretty amazing! Now remember all of this stuff has been created within just a few weeks, imagine the games/movies that will be made in a year's time.

Another good write up, glad to hear creating things is super easy unlike LBP.

Quote:Dreams for PlayStation 4 seems almost too good to be true. It’s a video game-meets-creative-suite that enables players to craft 3D characters, full environments, visual art, music, and even full video games inside itself. I’ve been making digital art for almost two decades, and I’ve never been able to create this much content in a single application — let alone one I can use from the comfort of my couch

Quote:I control Dreams with just the motion sensor, buttons, and analog sticks in the controller. Within seconds of learning the controls, I was creating 3D objects, speeding through menus, tweaking my creations, and editing my work freely inside a 3D space. The ease of which soon became comparable to using ZBrush on a drawing tablet or sculpting in virtual reality in Oculus Medium.

Quote:It’s fascinating how Dreams almost replicates the near-natural manipulation of objects in 3D space, something that I’ve only experienced in VR, and it’s done without a camera, headset, or even more than one controller. The game doesn’t even require the PlayStation camera, as I use a combination of the analog sticks and motion controls to move the cursor along the X, Y, and Z axes. I create every 3D object in the game while laying back on my couch with a single DualShock in my hands.

Quote:When I forst saw trailers for Dreams, I was skeptical that Media Molecule could create something comparable to the design tools I already have at my disposal. But I stand corrected after spending a few hours with Dreams. While Dreamswill hardly replace any of the gear I have in my own home, the included tools come close to matching their capabilities for a fraction of the cost.
