Despite its twee, borderline infantile presentation, Media Molecule's Dreams does not mess around. It takes incredible steps to democratise the tools of development and inspire creativity in players. I also believe it could help contextualise discussions people have about the often harsh realities of game development and, hell, maybe inspire a little kindness in these troubled times.
