Info

Dreams of Icarus is a short adventure map that puts you in the role of an actor in the fictional play Dreams of Icarus on the night of the dress rehearsal before the premiere. It is that simple.

The map is played in adventure mode set on peaceful. There are no hostile mob fights, and minimal puzzles. The map is strictly story and exploration driven.

I encourage you to completely explore your surroundings using any resources that may be provided.

This map is very short, it might take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes to complete. It is probably not going to take most people much longer than that, so I'm reluctant to call this an adventure map proper. It is more of an interesting distraction if you will.

There is a phase of the map where you may find yourself in the position to use some creativity. I encourage people to post screenshots or even map downloads demonstrating what you did.

I played this last night. It was... interesting to say the least. I think I'm gonna make a video playthrough of this today just because it's so different. It'll be posted by the youtube and forum account dasbuttocks. I hope you don't mind.

Thanks for playing man, mind if I link the video in the op?

Here you go!

Thanks for playing guys, I put both Let's Plays on the op.

Not to be picky, but could you put the numbers in my name in the OP in order. It's not really a big deal, but I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

It's so different from other maps, that it should have it's own genre.

When you put it that way, it makes sense. If an adventure map is a novel, this map was more of a poem.

(And a Let's Play will be posted later).

I look forward to it.

I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience such an amazingly imaginative map.

Wonderful job.

Your map inspired this project!


I'd really like if you made a submission, and I'm going to send you a private message, so look out for that.

Seems like a cool idea.

I found this playthrough of your map on the youtubes. Though you might like to see, it's actually pretty good.

I will add it to the op.

If that's the case, the map might need to be retooled in the future.
