Listen closely. I got it. You need to get it too. I desperately want to fuck up your attempts to tell a cohesive story. What is Sleep is Death? Read school's post about it.

While the game used to cost 14 dollars, you can now pay what you want for it. Get the game here. If you are still confused, click through the flip-book explanation at the bottom of that page.

I've also included a "story" and the creator's video tutorials after the jump.

    I was a little apprehensive about this game at first, but now I don't see why I shouldn't at least spend a bit of money and try it out.

    Got it for £8 when it was pre-order able. It'd be sweet to play a game of it with you man.

    I'll probably pick this up now. I was extremely aprehensive about paying $14 for something with only a few more features over doing something similar in a forum thread for free.

    I think you would need a lot of patience for this. It's like making an animated icon or typing a paper: you'll spend hours on it but when you go back to read/watch/play it, it's only 1/10 of the time you spent on it long. I think it's a unique and overall impressive idea and looks like it be fun to play other peoples strories but I wouldn't enjoy the process of making one too much

    I'm really impressed by some of these indie developers recently, I mean they are really going after a specific audience, and they know that they are mainly aiming at a smaller group, but o-boy they are going to hit some people's fancies right on the nail. I'm glad to see more games like this, especially the Love MMO by Eskil Steenberg, games not intended for everyone, but for smaller groups with certain tastes. Great Job game developers, you get a cookie!

    I like that some games are starting to let you pay your own price because it gives everyone an opportunity to enjoy a game as unique as "Sleep is Death."

    I picked this up a while ago and played a little bit of it, It's is a cool idea if you have a person who is a good storyteller and not someone who goes "You are in a white room you exit the room. You are in a black room now ."
    Thanks for posting a tutorial for the more advanced levels. I have played some sweet levels but I have never been an "amazing" level editor plus it's kind of hard to get your bearings in this editor.

    Buy this game even if you only pay $2 it's fun.

    Looks really unique and enjoyable but I don't think I would have the patience for it.

    It looks interesting if you can get two people to play together, though most of my friends probably wouldn't care much for a game like this.
