Sleeping Dragon

About

Sleeping Dragon has you navigating dreamlike diorama stages to uncover ancient totems and solve spatial puzzles. As a 3D platformer, it mixes exploration with environmental challenges that demand precise movement and creative thinking. You follow Hiru, a boy tied to a slumbering dragon, as he explores a surreal castle built from fragmented memories. Each level functions as a self-contained world where mechanics change to reflect the story’s shifting mystery. The handcrafted aesthetic gives puzzles a tactile feel while hidden collectibles encourage backtracking. The castle’s design shifts to reflect the dragon’s fractured past, tying gameplay directly to the central narrative. With a May 2024 release, it promises a focused indie experience built around tight level design rather than large open worlds. Early builds show strong puzzle variety and a distinct visual style that sets it apart from generic platformers.

Storyline

What was a fearsome dragon, now sleeps in a human body. In the attempt to remember his forgotten past, Sleeping Dragon created the Gallery of Lost Memories, a oniric castle where he gathered recovered memories. In the center of this, Hiru, a boy with a strange connection with the dragon, and his companion Clockbirdy, a cuckoo, explores the castle and unravel the past of Sleeping Dragon.
