About this game
Once a young basketball prodigy destined for the NBA, your dreams were shattered by an injury.
Three years later, living with your gambling-addict father and bouncing between dead-end jobs is pushing you further into a suffocating situation with no way out in sight.
But your uncle gets you a job at a renowned music entertainment agency, giving you some room to breathe—until a encounter with a pressured superstar threatens to turn your world upside down.
You will be immersed in the city of Brookside, where you will discover the stories and characters that inhabit it—for better or for worse.
Shattered Dreams: Redemption is a visual novel with mature themes, focusing on its story and the various branching paths you can explore.
The further you progress in the story, the more your choices will shape your story, and only you will decide the kind of relationships you'll build with the girls you meet, the enemies you'll confront, and the allies you'll rely on in Shattered Dreams: Redemption.
And these choices will likely become increasingly difficult to make, as they won't only affect you but also those around you. The consequences will always be there, waiting for you.

Regarding update 0.7 and the Future of the Game
Hello everyone,First of all, I would like to apologize for my silence and for the delay regarding the release of update 0.7.I want to be completely honest with you: for more than a month and a half, I have made almost no progress on the development of the game. What has prevented me from working is not a lack of time, but simply a complete creative block.Whenever I try to make progress, whether it is working on the renders or rewriting certain scenes I was not satisfied with, I just cannot do it. My mind goes completely blank. I cannot come up with any good ideas for the writing or the direction of the scenes.At the moment, seven and a half of the eleven planned scenes have been completed, and I still need to rewrite two scenes.I will not lie to you: this situation has been affecting me deeply. I am disappointing myself, and I feel like I am greatly disappointing all of you as well.I do not want to abandon the game. I also do not want to announce the end of development, only to regret that decision a few months later if my motivation returns. I think I simply need to take a break.I am going to give myself until the end of the year at the latest to make a decision and see whether I am capable of returning to the development of the game and enjoying working on it again in the meantime.Honestly, I do not know what else to say. I am truly sorry.Before I go, I would like to ask you one thing: would you like me to release the unfinished version of update 0.7? It would include the seven completed scenes.Once again, I am sincerely sorry.Have a good day, everyone, and take care of yourselves.Read full article on Community Announcements (nebuladreams)Patch NotesOfficial

Roadmap for 2026
Hello everyone, First of all, I’d like to thank you for your enthusiasm and support regarding the Early Access release of Shattered Dreams: Redemption. Today, I want to present the roadmap for Shattered Dreams: Redemption for the year 2026. These are estimates and deadlines I’ve set for myself, but delays or unforeseen issues may still happen. That said, believe me—I’ll do my best to stick to this schedule. A small clarification before we begin: version 1.0 will not be the final content update. I don’t yet know what number the final version will have, but I’m certain it won’t be version 1.0. Late February / Early March 2026: Release of version 0.6a — this update will add a scene that couldn’t be completed in time for the Steam release, as well as in-game achievements. May / June 2026: Release of version 0.7 — this will be a standard content update, expected to include around 900–1000 renders and at least ten scenes. October 2026: Release of version 0.8 — another standard content update, also expected to include around 900–1000 renders and at least ten scenes. Thank you for reading, and I wish you all a great day! Nebula DreamsRead full article on Community Announcements (nebuladreams)AnnouncementsOfficial
Slight delay for the release of Shattered Dreams: Redemption (February 4, 2026)
Hello everyone,Please excuse me, but the release of Shattered Dreams: Redemption will be postponed by one week, to February 4, 2026. Steam’s review team rejected the build because its content would include frequent sexual scenes/nudity. Despite my attempts, I unfortunately didn’t receive a clear explanation as to why the term “frequent” was used, considering we’re looking at a ratio of 7 scenes out of 100 containing sexual content or nudity.As a result, I updated the game’s classification to frequent sexual content/nudity and submitted the build for approval again. Since that was the only blocking issue, I hope a quick resolution will be found.I’m sincerely sorry for these issues. In mid-2025, when I spoke with Steam support about their definition of “frequent,” I didn’t seem to be concerned given such a scene ratio—but things have changed so much over the past few months that I got caught off guard, and that is entirely my fault.Thank you for reading, and have a great day,Nebula DreamsRead full article on Community Announcements (nebuladreams)AnnouncementsOfficial
