So I had a dream there was a psychological horror RPG that starred the Strawberry Shortcake characters that was kind of like Omori, and I shall now infodump about what I can remember from this dream
-The game was named something inconspicuous like “Strawberry Shortcake’s Adventure” or something. It had an Omori looking art style and in-battle menu
-It starts innocently where you’re playing as Strawberry, completing tasks for her friends and solves their problems. Strawberry is noticeably more stressed out than she usually is, though and it gets worse every time she has to do a task because she just wants to relax
-After helping like everyone in Strawberryland, she goes to chill out and work in her garden, but Huckleberry comes yelling for her to help him do something that I don’t remember. This kind of causes her to break, and she just whacks him with her shovel, killing him
-Orange goes to Strawberry’s house for some reason and sees Huckleberry’s dead body. Strawberry coerces Orange into helping her hide Huckleberry’s body, and they hide him in Orange’s garden. This is also what I mean by it being Omori like cause they have a very Sunny Basil and Mari thing going on here
-After a bit, maybe like a day, the other characters can’t find Huckleberry and think he’s gone missing. The game really starts here as a quest to “find” Huckleberry. You control a party of five characters; Strawberry, Orange, and three others from a roster of the characters from the original 80s, minus the baby characters, I think. Each character had their own unique stats and a personal weapon, but I can’t remember any other than Strawberry’s was her shovel, and Cafe’s was a hammer.
-I can’t remember what the characters looked like, but I do know they most resembled their 80s designs. Though some of them had personalities more similar to future versions like Raspberry acted more like her 2003 counterpart
-I remember in the dream that one of the critiques of the game was that it was hard to win fights and complete areas since you’d have to have specific characters in your party, and there were very few hints at what characters were needed
-Occasionally, there were puzzle areas that were each specific to a particular character. If you fail the puzzle, the character dies, and it’s game over.
-It is implied that since Huckleberry was murdered that Strawberryland was tainted or something, and it caused monsters and creatures to start showing up. I remember that certain boss fights were based on characters from the reboots like Ginger Snap and Cherry Jam
-Strawberry and Orange both saw hallucinations of Huckleberry though he looked widely different for both of them. It was implied it wasn’t actually Huckleberry, though, cause the game would occasionally switch perspective to Huckleberry in some sort of purgatory???
-The pets were implied to be less actual animals but more like manifestations of the characters' moral compasses and consciences. Custard and Marmalade look really unsettling after the Huckleberry thing
-I have no idea how the game ends because I woke up when I was only halfway through
