Me

Overview
Me, め, or 目 (lit.eye, sprout, or bud) -- as in the phonic syllable, not the pronoun -- is a game originally made in RPG Maker 2003 (Remade in RPG VX Ace) about a girl who shares the same name as the game's title. Made by Isasapiens, the game consists of the eponymous Me possibly going inside her mind, or "dreaming," by the use of the stereo system in her room.

The atmosphere is similar to .flow's, with dark and often visceral imagery, though it seems to also have a penchant for surreal imagery too. Me draws a lot of its inspiration from both Yume 2kki and Hallucigenia, as well as some other places with somewhat similarly styled areas to the originals. As one would have guessed, Me also frequently features imagery involving eyes, with sprouts sometimes showing up from time to time in certain areas of the game.

Gameplay
Me's style of gameplay resembles both Lcd Dem and .flow.

The objective of the game is to gather all the orbs and Effects. The few Effects that are in the game are used to help the player find the orbs. You must collect all 30 orbs in order to receive one of the game's four endings (as of Ver. 0.05).

The latest versions have wallpapers and background music to collect on Me's computer, as well as e-mails when you collect orbs.

Me is vast and dense, with many events packed into an enormous dream world.

Plot
There is little to none, though some events at the game may or may not give hints about Me's previous whereabouts.

Effects and Items
There are 11 Effects found in the game. Their abilities can be used with the action key, Shift. Contrary to most fangames and the original Yume Nikki itself, all of the Effects found in Me have a purpose and can be used frequently. Effects can even be mixed together by selecting one Effect then another while the first Effect is still active. Effect Mixes combine the abilities of the two Effects, but other than that, they are only there for looks or to change the environment around them. There are a total of 10 Effect Mixes.

Items (as of Version 0.05)
 Lollipop:  found in the MOTHER 3 Area with the mailboxes. Interacting with it will cause Me to pick it up. You can give it to Peanut (a little pink creature that looks like Charlotte from Madoka Magica) in the open mailbox. Doing this will give you a wallpaper.

 Box:  found in the Igloo World and is used to obtain the Distort Effect. It's a blue block that moves around until you pick it up.

 Key:  obtained from the red-haired clerk in the Purple City after you give it the Box. Use it to unlock a previously restricted building in the city that will give you the Distort Effect.
