About YNOproject
A free online multiplayer hub for Yume Nikki and dozens of its surreal dream-exploration fangames, playable together in the browser.
YNOproject is a community-run platform that brings Yume Nikki — the 2004 cult dream-exploration game by Kikiyama — and many of its fangames online. You wander strange dream worlds, collect effects and discover secrets, but now you can see other players exploring the same rooms and chat with them.
Games such as Yume 2kki, .flow and Collective Unconscious are available, with expeditions, badges and a shared global chat. Everything runs in the browser with arrow keys, Z/Enter to interact and X/Esc for the menu. It is a fan project, not affiliated with the original creators.

How to play YNOproject in your browser
- Press Play in browser — the game opens on ynoproject.net in a new tab.
- Wait while the game files load. The first start can take from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on your connection; later starts are faster because the browser caches the files.
- Click inside the game window so it captures the keyboard and mouse, then switch to fullscreen (F11 or the host's fullscreen button).
- Open the in-game settings to adjust controls, graphics and sound. Progress is normally kept in your browser storage, so don't clear site data if you want to keep your saves.
YNOproject controls
Default layout for this browser version. Keys can differ between builds, and most hosts let you rebind them in the settings. A USB or Bluetooth gamepad usually works too.
| Action | Key |

What to expect from the browser version
The browser version of YNOproject is an independent web project — a port, recompilation or fan remake — hosted on ynoproject.net. It is not an official release from fan project, and MePlayable does not host any game files: we describe the game and link to the project.
Requirements
A modern desktop browser — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Opera or Safari 16+ — with WebAssembly and WebGL enabled, at least 4 GB of RAM and a stable connection for the first load. Hardware acceleration should be switched on in the browser settings.
If YNOproject doesn't start
- Black screen or endless loading — update the browser, enable hardware acceleration and reload the page with Ctrl+F5.
- No sound — click inside the game window: browsers only allow audio after you interact with the page.
- Lag or low FPS — close other heavy tabs and programs, then lower the resolution or graphics settings in the game.
- The site doesn't open — the host may be temporarily down or blocked in your region. Try again later or use another project link on this page.

YNOproject: frequently asked questions
Which site hosts the browser version of YNOproject?
The playable web version of YNOproject runs on ynoproject.net. MePlayable doesn't host game files: we check the link, explain controls and point you to the project page.
Can I play YNOproject online for free?
Yes. The browser version on ynoproject.net is free to open, and MePlayable doesn't charge anything — we simply link to the project.
Do I need to download YNOproject?
No. YNOproject runs directly in a browser tab using WebAssembly and WebGL, so there is no installer and nothing to download. The browser only caches files to make the next launch faster.
Can I play YNOproject on a phone?
Often yes: the host can show on-screen touch controls. Still, a computer — or a phone with a connected gamepad — is much more comfortable.
Can I play YNOproject with friends?
Yes, the browser version supports online play. Servers and lobbies depend on the host and on how many players are online.
Is this the official YNOproject?
No. YNOproject is a fan-made project inspired by Yume Nikki. It is not affiliated with fan project, and all trademarks belong to their owners.
Will my progress be saved?
Usually yes: saves are stored in your browser's local storage on this device. They are lost if you clear browser data, use private mode or switch to another browser or device.
