Changelog

  1. v9.91999.12.31

    Chrome everywhere. Rewrote the moon in liquid metal. Fixed a leak where daylight entered the render path.

  2. v9.71999.10.04

    Lucidity API opened to the public. Deprecated nightmares.dll — legacy users may notice it persisting for compatibility.

  3. v9.41999.07.19

    Added 16× dream-sampling. Falling no longer clips through the floor; it fades to velvet.

  4. v9.11999.04.02

    Specular highlights on every memory. Known issue: some operators report dreams “too beautiful to wake from.” Working as intended.

  5. v8.81999.01.11

    First public build. The night ships in chrome.
