With quite wonderful dream-like visuals, Into A Dream is an in-development narrative adventure inside the dreams of someone suffering with a deep depression.
"Wake up in a mysterious place devoid of all your memories and come upon a recording addressed to you. As you listen, you realize that your mind has been linked to the dreams of a Luke Williams, a man diagnosed with severe depression. You are Luke’s last hope and must prevent him from fading away."
Mixing shadowy figures like something out of LIMBO with bright coloured lighting, it has a very captivating style choice that really does look fantastic. Charming music to go along with it too. Have a look at the trailer:

Into A Dream is currently seeking funding through an IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign, and for all pledges selected at "The Coping Companion" reward level they will donate 25% of the total raised from that to the CheckPoint mental health charity. It's using a flexible goal, so they will get any funds raised by the time it finishes (they don't need to hit the full target).
The developer, Filipe, mentioned to us about their Linux support and that it has a demo build you can actually try out right now on itch.io and you can also follow on Steam.
