I Dream of Sands

I Dream of Sands was not only a heck of a challenge, but also a small contemplative game made in Unreal Engine 5 by three creators :
-> Légende_Urbaine (SoundCloud/itch.io) : Sound Design (1h30), Music (1h), Sound Placing and BPs (20 min)
-> (OFF_)RAID (itch.io) : Visual Effects (1h), (speedrun of  x')...) landscaping and level design (1h30)
-> Wav_Le_Hib (itch.io) : Code (1h), (rushed :' D ...) landscaping and level design (1h30), Assets integration (30 minutes)

Synopsis
You play as someone, walking on a land covered by sands, as your portal to your bed disappeared... find the fragments on the island to rebuild it.

Controls
WSAD moves your character.
Your character jumps with Space and sprints with Shift.
If you're blocked somewhere, awake directly with R and restart the game.

How does it run ?
We understand Unreal Engine 5 can worry some players, as it is reputed powerful but heavy in resources.
Fortunately, we've managed to make some quick optimisations during the jam : reducing size of textures, disabling Lumen and Virtual Shadows, checking LODs...

[UPDATED] : More friends played the game, so now, here's a real recommendation spreadsheet, for 60 FPS gameplay :
