Description Steam (Français)
You wake up nowhere, with no body.
In fact, less than that,
You feel all the different parts of yourself have been torn away and thrown to the wind.
You stand and look ahead,
Not even knowing how you're standing without a form.
Before you is a beautiful haven, but you're no fool, you know a gilded cage when you see one.
Time to pull yourself together.
What, or Who, is the Star Haven?
After the events of After Light Fades, the alchemist Aura was left devastated. Sniffing out her shadowy vulnerability across space and time, the cosmic parasite Star Haven swallowed her up into its world of illusion.
Star Haven dismembered Aura's being – her hands, feet, eyes, mind and heart – and cast them away, and now it slowly digests its host with serene detachment as she struggles to re-member herself.
Upon waking inside Star Haven, and being ever the masterful alchemist, Aura condenses her last remaining mana into a time node, to set up a time loop as a last resort for her perilous search for a way to escape this dreamy illusion.
Gameplay
Dream of the Star Haven is a 1st person giant-leap platformer with a side-scrolling 2.5D platformer and a sokoban puzzler nested inside its time-loop structure (time-loop gameplay coming soon in early access).
A unique hybrid of exploration, puzzling and combat - a magical odyssey through the being known as Star Haven, where you soar gracefully and eventually even bend gravity itself to your will, giving you the power to literally turn the dreamlike world upside-down in search of the missing parts of yourself and a way out of the illusory parasitic world of Star Haven.
At each repeat of the time-loop, learn what is lost and what is kept, and strategise your own non-linear way forward, to eventually confront the great parasite itself and transcend its strange world.
Embrace the joy and melancholy of a strangely harmonious yet subtly twisted journey, as you reach toward a higher dream of the Star Haven!

Small Update
General • updated all laser-beam-wheels to the new octopus-orb type for more of a flowing organic look and feel • weapons now persist across levels, and so are kept permanently (except after a time-loop reset) Sokobans • fixed a few small bugs and glitches with animation behaviours so that both the avatar and the sokoban objects visually respond with more consistency
Small Update
Removed both the hidden-switch that required the Eye and the look-ring, and replaced with a sokoban puzzle to open the door to the Hand. This also means that from the start of the game, and after a timeloop-reset, you're now able to get the feet OR hands first - you're no longer locked into the linear sequence of feet-eyes-hands. Also added the first pile-of-bones helper. I'll be gradually adding these throughout the game to give help to players who're feeling lost, as well as tying in the story better.
Small Update
• highlighted the airstream in the overworld, since many players got stuck right at the start trying to find it • fixed an issue with the cursor not displaying
