A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
... the most genuinely realistic game ever made. It is like life: puzzling, difficult, uncertain, unclear, always seen, in St Paul’s words, through a glass darkly. — Bryan Appleyard, The Sunday Times
The Night Journey (2007-2018) is one of the first experimental art games ever made. A collaboration between renowned media artist Bill Viola and designers at the USC Game Innovation Lab, it uses both game and video techniques to tell the universal story of an individual’s journey towards enlightenment.
After being exhibited around the world for the past decade, this foundational videogame artwork has now come to home platforms. Updated for this release with new, original dream footage, the project stands as a milestone in the search to expand the boundaries of what game experiences may communicate through their game mechanics and world design.
The game begins in the center of a mysterious landscape on which darkness is falling. There is no one path to take, no single goal to achieve, but the player’s actions will reflect on themselves and the world, transforming and changing them both. If they are able, they may slow down time itself and forestall the fall of darkness. If not, there is always another chance; the darkness will bring dreams that enlighten future journeys.
The interactive design of The Night Journey evokes a sense of the archetypal journey of enlightenment through the mechanics of the game experience – i.e. the choices and actions of the player during the game. The game design explores a challenging question: what is the game mechanic of enlightenment? How can we model such an intensely personal yet archetypal experience in a game?
Visual inspiration is derived from the prior works of Bill Viola which provide reference for the game world, while source material for the in-game “reflections” is drawn from the vast archive of his video footage. Textual inspiration comes from the lives and writings of great historical figures including: Rumi, the 13th century Islamic poet and mystic; Ryōkan, the 18th century Zen Buddhist poet; St. John of the Cross, the 16th century Spanish mystic and poet; and Plotinus, the 3rd century philosopher.
The team created a set of custom post-processing techniques for the 3D environment that give a sense of “explorable video,” integrating the imagery of Bill Viola’s prior work into the game world at both a technical and creative level.
The Night Journey was awarded 'Most Sublime Experience' at the IndieCade Festival of Independent Games.

FAQ
Q: There appears to be a gray/black shadow around the animations when I play them in RPG Maker MZ.
A: This was an issue/bug in the original release (V1.0) of RPG Maker MZ and it was fixed in the V1.0.2 update. Please make sure your version of RPG Maker MZ is up to date!
Q: I plan on rendering my own sprite sheets/videos/gifs from the Effekseer files so that I can use them in my non-RPG Maker MZ project, am I allowed to do this?
A: Yes! However, please note that these renders are secondary assets derived from the original, and they are still bound by the same terms-of-use stated above. As such, you cannot sell/publish/distribute these secondary assets outside of including them as a necessary part of your project.
Q: Am I allowed to use the sound effects by themselves?
A: Yes! While the sound effects were created to complement their respective animations, you are more than welcome to utilize them anywhere else in any fashion you would like.
However, even if you decide to only use the sound effects and not the animations, since the sound effects are a part of this Asset pack, you still have to follow the terms-of-use above, including proper crediting and the limitations on reselling/publishing/distribution.
Q: I have some other questions/concerns.
A: Feel free to comment below, or email us for a private conversation at contact(at)dreams-circle.com.

I am all for this new series. Real potential to cover all of the base animation needs for RPG Maker MZ with quality animations (weapons/magic, etc.) I am excited to see what you make in the future with these sets.
Including accompanying sound effects was also a step in the right direction. I am much happier purchasing this pack than I ever was the animations select as it really is more plug-and-play and I feel I absolutely got my money's worth.
Can this asset be used in Unity 3D or there is a way to export it?
Effekseer has support for Unity, please refer to their documentation for details on how to implement.
https://effekseer.github.io/en/download.html
However, please note that these animations were designed for RPG Maker MZ in mind, so we cannot guarantee that they are fully compatible in Unity.
Another 20 amazing animations, and I see some potential to break a few of these up as well for some more simple animations to expand it even further depending on a projects needs. Real nice.
really nice work!! I am waiting for the elemental effects
these are absolutely amazing I can't wait to use these I see so many possibility.
Hi Wolfs Moon Studios,
