Publisher Feardemic and developer Jesse Makkone have confirmed that 2D psychological horror Afterdream will be making its way to the Switch later this year.
Boasting atmospheric pixel-art visuals, Afterdream blurs the line between reality and fiction as you explore a dream-like environment filled with spooky ghosts and engaging puzzles. You'll have a special camera at hand to analyse your immediate surroudings to ensure not only your progress, but your survival.
Here's a peek at the key features:
- Side-scrolling 2D with unique art-style
- Interact with hidden objects through the lens of a strange camera
- Atmospheric music and sound design
- Delve into a lucid dream, bending reality and fiction
- Minimalist yet efficient interface so the focus stays intact
- Hand-made in Finland, no asset flips or cheap tricks!
Afterdream is currently set to launch on Switch in Q3 2023.

I misread it as "Amsterdam" and though to myself "what's the monster gonna do, chase you on a bicycle?"
Looking pretty good so far, "Hand-made in Finland, no asset flips or cheap tricks!" is certainly a good selling point. They know me well.
@Princess_Lilly No, it will chase you in a speedboat through the canals of Utrecht instead.
@SwagaliciousJohnson ah yes, being chased through the canals, my phobia
@Princess_Lilly What does "no asset flips or cheap tricks" mean exactly in this context?
Love this type of games.
@ZZalapski
Not shovelware.
@ZZalapski I can only guess that it means it's hand drawn without copying and pasting various objects and then making them blend with the environment by flipping them (so that a tree or a house doesn't look the same as the one next to it), making them bigger, smaller, etc. It;s easier and faster than drawing a whole new tree
