“I think Dhruv, Matt, and I learned how to see what it can be rather than what it is right now. The house is going to be beautiful.”

We Make Games!
Dare to Dream
Brave Eduardo (On-Going) MAC/PC/Switch
Brave Eduardo is our attempt to return to form. With the completion of Mirablade, we really thought we needed to recapture our imagination.
From that thought, a 2D open world RPG was born where you play as a Teddy Bear who travels throughout the world making honey, learns about the conflict between Bears and Spids, and survives a Lovecraft horror assault.
Also, not sure what got into our head, but we are also making a Brave Eduardo card game.
Mirablade (2018) ios/android
Your title as God of Lavinia is at stake! Craft and customize swords so your summoned heroes can demolish all those who are stopping you from getting the Ivald pieces back. Obtain unique powers from your crafted swords and accessories to slice enemies down in fast-paced hack and slash gameplay. However, beware! Enemies also have a slew of abilities that will require dexterity and a fast reaction time to evade.
Earlier Projects (2011-2017)
Cliche, Dream Arena, Never Ending Night, Project M…etc. We've been making games for awhile. Check out what games have been released and what hasn’t! Most of them have been released because we ain’t no quitter!

We are Dot Dream, a small team of game developers with big dreams
John, Matt, and Dhruv, the artist, musician, and programmer of Dot Dream Studio. Not in pictures: Alan, Tessa, Annie, and Michael.
Dot Dream LLC is a game development studio that specializes in 2D games that focuses on creating contents that connects older and younger generations. Brave Eduardo is our current WIP project that will cultivate a generation of children that will be enjoying a creative and collaborative experience with their parents.
“We provide thought-provoking experiences with innovative gameplay designs to help raise a generation of empathetic and sociable gamers.”
John and Dhruv co-founded Dot Dream during high school. Everything started during that fateful swim meet!
Matt Fan Chiang (Middle) is the musician that makes everything come to life. We are nothing without him. Jeffrey (Right) came and supported us during our all nighter for Never Ending Night.
Our philosophy is to simply create. While planning is important, we gave birth to many of our innovative features and games by redirecting the time it takes to “conjure hypothetical doubts” towards making samples and alpha versions. We then make decisions based on hands on iterative tests. Never try, never know. It has been a difficult process so far, and we doubt it will get easier. Our love for the medium will be tested, but we know this is what we love to do. We are happy you are interested, and we want you to know you are the best.
