About the Story

You Can Only Turn Left is a playful exploration of the hypnagogic state between sleeping and wakefulness. Within this liminal space, memories morph into dreams and dreams feather into reality. You, the player have to navigate these hallucinations by choosing how the character creates their sleeping patterns. Inspired by game books and guided sleep meditations, this story invites you to imagine both the mundane and the fantastic to practice the mental flexibility of an avid dreamer.

Author's Comment: "This game is the accumulation of dream journals dating back to 2017, the collaboration and patience of many mentors, and an incredible amount of energy drinks."
