Back to Bed

Back to Bed

A surreal puzzle game in which the player guides a narcoleptic sleepwalker to his bed, moving objects in each level to ensure he gets there safely.

Overview

Back to Bed is a puzzle game by Bedtime Digital Games, an indie studio formed by a small group of Danish students. It takes place in a surreal, Escheresque dream world, through which the player must guide a sleepwalking man safely to his bed by moving objects around.

Development

Back to Bed began as a student project for the Danish National Academy of Digital Interactive Entertainment (DADIU), and was a collaboration between many students of various schools. The original prototype was met with great praise, which encouraged a small section of the development team to expand the prototype into a full game. Funding was originally sought through Kickstarter, with later support from Danish investment company Capnova, who had previously helped fund Limbo.
