Gameplay is as follows: walk around in bizarre surreal planes randomly generated through as of yet undefined `logic`. Levels/dreams randomly end or 'transition' when the player walks into objects. No two dreams nor two playthroughs are anything alike. Interspersed with clips of surreal warped footage seemingly shot in China during the game's development in the late '90s. Dreams are charted on the four-way diagram attached to this post. There is no clear objective.
Pure chaos for the sake of chaos? A cryptic eastern philosophic message disguised as a video game? A warning disguised as a cryptic eastern video game? Pure schizophrenic rambling expressed in code? A way of linking the dream plane to the internet to the physical plane? A tribute to the unpredictability and beauty of lysergic acid? Nothing at all? All of the above ɪ n ˈ t ɛr ə b æ ŋ ‽
