I was playing The Lab in my dream
I was playing The Temple and The Exit in my dream, and The Edge, The Core and The Plan, when they weren't released.
Funny fact: When I am inside Submachine games (when I am Player), these games looks like Survival Horror. And it really creepy. XD

Sub, you better pray your dreams were anything close to the real games :P Why don't you make some Theories to reflect them? :P
...and probably watched a few of those promotional animations.
Possibly, possibly, didn't think of that (being it's been so long, lol.)

Today I again saw Submachine dream. Today I was guest in Mateusz's house, and I was betatesting Submachine 9. And I saw, how HE was developing Submachine 10...
And I saw MasterPlan, Liz, Player's copy... I asked Mateusz about it, and HE EXPLAINED everything! :O

No, I had too much Submachine dreams to make at least one normal theory... XD

I had an interesting dream last night, though I don't remember it all.

I was at a froze over base I believe on a distant planet (or another layer as will come up later). There was a huge ominous sense, like in a space horror movie like Aliens. Yet ironically, there where these playful slides built in the ice all over the complex. You couldn't walk through the complex because of damage and ice piles, but you could go through very low to the ground obstacle courses, like sliding through ice tunnels then jumping over gaps in the ground. Finally I got to the back of the compound where there was a long shaft with a blazing furnace at the bottom. I knew intuitively that the damage to the base was because of a black alien monster that lived down at the bottom of that tunnel. There was a huge maze of tunnels for ventilation and air purification down there, not just the blazing furnace.

The "story" of the dream gets mixed up for a while, the I'm rescuing a worker that was trapped at the base and we are scaling up the ventilation shaft where the rest of the crew of the base are hiding out. We are trying to out running both the black alien, and an explosion, though we never see either. Instead, while I'm half way up the shaft, I get an intuitive feeling that the explosion has ended and the alien is dead. I never did see the area where all the other people were hiding.

The next section of the dream was more tight obstacle courses, but without the ice, and while I'm thinking I'm still on the space station, and some things are still looking very space station like, there is more and more evidence I'm in a very elaborate kids play place. The tight obstacles are long maze like tunnels with ropes and pulleys you have to navigate through. I'm crawling the hole time in a way that should be claustrophobic but isn't. I finally get out and indeed it is a kids play ground and an adult helps me strap in to a huge barn swing (that's what we call them in the ozarks at least: an extremely high swing that rotates 360 degrees which you can do all kinds of crazy tricks on. Their very fun.)

Now comes the coolest part. I'm in a very odd Alice-in-wonderland like place. I'm on a small rock island with a group of people and there is a big (2 stories at least) box constructed there that is half as deep as it is wide. The shore is far away, everything is kind of brown, and there is some kind of structure opposite of the direction the box faces, like a house moored at the island. Inside the big box is a live action performance of the structure of the multiverse. It consists of a painting of our world at the top, and a painting of more and more stars as you go down and away. But there are people on tight ropes directing your attention and holding important objects. The most important are many large but light weight glowing sea shells (as big as a person, but one person can lift them). These I intuit are representations of how our world views the other realities in the multiverse. The are separate from our universe, yet when we look up in the sky we are actually seeing them in some ways, and if you were to go into those other universes, you could look back out and see the others and the one you came from. So all the universes are connected somewhere in space, like a region of space that is a portal, but arranged differently in each universe (makes me think of the tree portals in Nightmare Before Christmas, which I've always guessed each holiday land has, but in a different place). The people are picking the shells up and moving them, indicating some kind of movement that happens in the universe.

(I don't actually see how that could possibly be an actual model of a multiverse as all we see in our universe seems to interrelate, like the microwave background map, red shifting and such. But it sounds cool! XD)

Someone finds something at the foot of the box they think is really important and I get the intuition that something bad is about to happen, like a guardian is about to arise. And sure enough the mud at the edge of the island starts to rise in a 3 or 4 foot broad heap and a bubbling deep growl is heard. Then the mud sluffs off to reveal a giant toad! We immediately start pelting it with rocks and it cries out in pain in a surprisingly human, though deep voice.

That's all I remember.

A few comments on my dreams. They are never linear long term. They meander and jump around just as much as my normal thought processes do, which isn't surprising. I imagine that a more linear thinker would have much more linear dreams. Like a friend of mine, who gets so made at me when I start to redefine terms instead of making new terms. He finally said one day that my mind seems to work more like a cloud, a mist of thoughts and ideas creating random leaps and associations all the time. His works more like long strings of tightly bound information, which serves him well as head over a division of computer services at one of the local universities. The cloud thing seems really true. I can't remember things unless I have many associations with them, like stories or multiple views of the same problem. I have the hardest time learning math concepts because math is so very divorced from other subjects, though once I learn the concept I can do just fine.

Anyway, I say all that just to illustrate how dreams relate to the way our minds process information while we are awake.

One by one we get to that "place" it seems... maybe we could find some similarities, eh?
