DreamCatcher: Reflections, Volume 1
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Riza Wolfe is the kind of person often referred to as a daydreamer. With her high school days approaching an end quicker than she would like, and the threat of a mundane adult life looming over her, she’s always wondering if there’s something more out there.
As it turns out, there is.
After receiving an unassuming dream catcher as a gift one day, Riza soon finds herself following a character she thought she’d made up through a mysterious nexus realm and into a parallel world, where she is supposedly one of seven “Dreamers” of legend. She gets what she’s always wanted–an adventure, and a greater purpose…sort of. The problem is, no one seems to know exactly why the Dreamers are there, just that it means something very, very bad is coming. It’s up to Riza, her new werewolf guardian, Luna, and the assortment of companions they collect along the way to unite with the other Dreamers, and figure out why they were summoned…before it’s too late.
Follow Riza around the map as she chases destiny...or maybe it chases her.

This is a kinetic novel series adapted from a webcomic--there are no choices to make or alternate endings to unlock; just sit back and enjoy the story!
"BETA" vs. "COMPLETE": Chapters listed as "BETA" are the original early releases, and are available for free but are lacking many of the features and polish of the "COMPLETE" version. Betas do not include the voice acting, art gallery, or bonus story, and the first few chapters have the now-outdated GUI and sprites. However, they are perfectly readable and while not the final versions, they are a valid way to enjoy the story.
VOICE CAST:
- Multiknights as Riza
- Elissa Park as Luna
- Jazzy Oliver as Daemian
- Joshua Cookingham as Lunos
- Ray O'Hare as Ooji
- Geoff Butler as Raus
- Shakyra Dunn as Suzume
- Katie Otten as Mel
- Ryan Hoyle as Salvatore

how many volumes left in dreamcatcher?
Feels a bit oddly short but I could be wrong.
Question, is there romance
Not in this volume since it's just the beginning of the story, but it's definitely a possibility in the future as the characters develop!
(That said, this isn't a romance-centric story; if anything it'll be a subplot.)
