The video you’re about to watch is already built in Dreamsis a video game but also some kind of mystical toolkit that allows you to create whatever.
You may have seen many, often hard to understand Dreams videos if you spend enough time on forums or Twitter. I say confusing because the game is very flexible and strong that many of its best works are beginning to look a lot like the things they are trying to recreate or pay homage to.

G/O Media may receive a commission
$10 or more
Humble Bundle – Starlight Bundle
Benefit the Starlight Children’s Foundation

And here’s a direct screenshot comparison:
If you’re wondering how Krenautican created it, or just want to watch it in higher resolution, this YouTube video breaks down his whole process. It shows the hard work required to build the set to scale, requiring everything from the size of the fence wiring to the angle of the car door to match the original.
