A clean-up gig. 

A dissident thinker has tried to flee the authorities into her dreams by means of an altered tape recorder. Something went wrong and she now needs your help to make a second attempt. However, scraping the components together will take you on a trip through the ins and outs of the city.

The Dissident is a short point and click adventure. It features ornate retro CGA-graphics with BIG omnipresent GUI elements. Item puzzles. Phoone. Goofy characters. Character voices by Emma! A jazzy soundtrack with ambient in the mix. A good time!

Excellent little game with a great sense of humor. I found it by random chance in a previous stream and then livestreamed the whole thing a few days later. I'm going to turn that portion of the livestream into a YouTube-friendly video in the future but for now you can watch the full stream here: 

Holy shit! Thanks for streaming!

Congratulations on the release! I've solved it! 
The story and the graphics are cool and surreal - Wavey Games style! :)

The CGA graphics are peak!

The puzzles are not too easy, but also not too difficult.

I really liked it!
