Description

Top-down pixel art investigation game, with mechanics of switching between the real world and the dream world in a hotel. The game was created in GB Studio, based on the super gameboy standard.

You control Emily, an investigative journalist who enters an abandoned hotel to investigate her mother's disappearance. You then discover that she is trapped in a parallel world inside this hotel, the dream world. When lying on a bed, you can switch between the real world and the dream world, and you must use this to search for and save your mother. The actions in one world affects the other.
