There's a fine line between dreams and nightmares...
THE GAME:
“Very Bad Dreams” is an intense and demanding experience that will put your nerves to the test.
Forget everything you thought you knew about horror games, because “Very Bad Dreams” transcends the boundaries of the gaming experience.
Developed by a 3-person independent French studio, “Very Bad Dreams” is much more than just a game.
It's an extraordinary immersive experience, where your survival depends on real-life actions. You'll have to react instinctively to survive in this frightening world.
Feel the impact of your strike force, feel vibrations in your head when you're hit by an enemy or your heart races, run and jump using your real gestures, hold your head with both hands to keep from going mad.
All these new gameplay elements will give you the impression of never doing the same thing.
Do you like to search for endless loot? Try out hundreds of weapon and potion combinations? Spending hours in your inventory?
“Very Bad Dreams" is not for you... Whether you've got a gun, a bat or a knife, the best thing to do is to run away and NOT TO SINK INTO THE MADNESS...
THE STORY:
You wake up on an idyllic beach, your feet in the white sand, lulled by a gentle breeze as the sun sets on the horizon. During this tranquil stroll, the gates of hell open up to you.
Driven by your pride, you think you can pass through them without suffering the consequences, but soon the perfect dream in which you found yourself turns into an oppressive nightmare with no way out.
Fight for your very existence in an atmosphere where madness is palpable and anxiety grows with every step you take, confronting hordes of zombies, solving puzzles or searching for the best place to hide.
For the bravest among you, get ready for an extraordinary immersive experience, where horror comes to life and every moment can seal your fate.
Face your inner demons, triumph over your deepest fears. But remember, never succumb to madness.
Dare you plunge into the endless abyss of “Very Bad Dreams”?
We've warned you!

An Important Update About my VR Games
An Important Update About Our VR GamesHi everyone,I wanted to let you know that I’ve decided to remove the demos for GET OUT! and VERY BAD DREAMS from Steam.Why I Made This DecisionFor the past year, I’ve been working alone on our various projects. Unfortunately, VR game sales remain very low across all platforms, whether on PSVR2, Steam, or Meta Quest. As a result, I also have to return to my previous job alongside game development.Under these circumstances, managing several versions of the games, improving and optimizing them, while also maintaining separate demos, has become very complicated. It takes a great deal of time and can also create differences or bugs between the demos and the full games.I originally started making video games out of passion. I’m not a large studio with a full team behind me, so I now have to make choices that will allow me to keep moving forward without exhausting myself.I would rather dedicate my time to developing, improving, and optimizing the games themselves than maintaining things that are no longer truly essential.Why the Demos Are Being RemovedSteam already allows players to purchase a game and request a refund if it isn’t right for them, in accordance with the platform’s refund policy. In that context, maintaining separate demos no longer makes much sense to me.I’ll continue improving and optimizing the games for as long as I have the energy, desire, and passion to do so. But with the current level of sales, I need to focus on what matters most and avoid spreading myself too thin.Darkness Rollercoaster Will Become FreeI’ve also decided to make some of our older games free, including Darkness Rollercoaster. Even though it feels a little dated today, some players may still enjoy it, and I would rather make it available to everyone without a price barrier.I would have loved to release the PSVR2 version of Darkness Rollercoaster on Steam. It is a much more complete version, featuring a roller-coaster editor, new levels, races, and...Read full article on Community Announcements (Thaikorat)Patch NotesOfficial

3.6 - Hot fix VR Tracking Origin
We regret the negative experience players have had regarding their character's position in the game. We've been looking for solutions to this problem for some time now. Unfortunately, we don't have the headsets with which these errors were found. We have tried to interact with the Steam VR SDK to correct this problem. We're applying the Roomscale method (which allows us to collect the distance between the ground and the headset) directly via the API and hope that this will resolve the issue. Don't hesitate to give us feedback on your experience, especially if you have the following headsets: * HTC Vive * Valve Index * Other headsets with positioning problems... If the problem persists, we will integrate a feature to customize the character's position, but we wanted to avoid this in the first instance, as it could generate new problems since we are unable to detect the original problem. Life's a game, enjoy!Read full article on Community Announcements (Thaikorat)
