PS4 game Dreams allows you to create your own games in a relatively easy way. This has even led one player to a job in the gaming industry.
What is Dreams? Dreams is more of a playful development platform than a real game. You get a toolkit for your PS4, with which you can create your own game worlds, levels, characters, and gameplay. Essentially, you build your own game.
This has already led to some very interesting creations, such as a parody of Red Dead Online.
From Hobby to Job Offer
What impact does Dreams have on players? It’s a lot of fun to create your own games, and with a bit of talent and luck, it could even turn into a job.
Player Jimmyjules153 had never developed a game before. But Dreams sparked his interest and creative flair.
The tools exceed anything I could have imagined on any platform. I could immediately see what potential this game could have with a supportive community behind it.

So he set out to develop an arcade shooter called Blade Gunner. He was inspired by the PS4 game Resogun.
In the game, you control a spaceship that orbits around a kind of city and must destroy wave after wave of enemies. It’s actually a pretty simple game principle, but it works really well.
So well that Dreams developer Media Molecule featured the game, allowing it to be seen by even more players.
However, not only players took notice of Blade Gunner, but also a European game studio.
I was approached by a European game development company that asked me to join their team. I’m excited about the future and where this could lead me!

Maybe you also have a really great idea for a game? Then try to realize it with Dreams. Who knows, maybe a game studio will notice your title, and you’ll receive an enticing job offer like Jimmyjules153.
