MEDIA Molecule has announced it will no longer be updating its popular game creation tool.
The game allows players to make their own high-quality games with no programming experience.
Endless styles of games can be developed using Dreams.
Dreams is used by over a million people who log in to create and play new fan-made projects.
Using the tools inside Dreams, it’s easy to create and share in-game characters and objects, as well as level design and environments.
This means that multiple players can collaborate together in order to create a new game.
The process is similar to Mario Maker, where players can use different parts of Mario games to create their own levels.
Only in Dreams players have more freedom, and can include anything they can ‘dream’ of.
From September 1, 2023, developer Media Molecule will no longer be updating Dreams with new tools.
Players will still be able to create and upload new creations for others to play after this date.
You will also be able to choose and play games from the servers after that date.
However, there will be a limit on how many creations one person can make from September.
There will also be a number of changes to the games, and limits on different tools.
Events will no longer take place, and new content will only be created by fans.
Media Molecule aims to keep Dreams alive by limiting what players can do before the updates stop.
By placing a limit on how much each player can create, it will mean that people can keep creating and playing for a long time to come.
However, Dreams is popular due to its large player base, and people will be less likely to play after the game removes updates.
Media Molecule has claimed that it will be removing updates in order to focus on a new upcoming game.
Details of this have not been released, but it has confirmed that the new project will not be related to Dreams.
You can find out all the changes on the Dreams official website.
