Finally got a chance to play your game, I had some problems downloading it. I love the style it is very unique everything looks like it was drawn for kids book, but with a twist haha! Amazing aesthetics,  great game :D

Thank you for the feedback!

Really enjoyed the eerie forest setting and the Slavic-folk horror twist. The visual style and lighting draw you in, and I appreciated how day/night cycles changed the mood. Would love to see a little more on the story side and some varied sound cues, but overall excellent work!

Developer

Thanks!

I really like the idea! Slavic mythology rarely gets covered in games! However, I could not complete the game because I was confused about the mechanics and what needed to happen to win. The one-hand controls are not exceptionally comfortable, and the movement should have been in the arrow keys instead of WASD. The shooting mechanic did not work at all, I don't know if it's a glitch or not. Otherwise, good job!

I really like this, especially the aesthetics, and the gameplay mechanics. The fire decreasing our view is a fantastic add-on. Very well executed. I have to say once again, I really like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really cool hand-drawn art, I respect the effort! I was able to pick up the game mechanics quickly, and going through the cycles was fun. I always enjoy game with a good challenge, nice job!

Developer

Thanks! We tried very hard to achieve a balance so that it would not be too easy, it would not be too difficult

Beautiful game! It has a straightforward concept with easy to pick up mechanics. I like the fairytale, almost whimsical feel in the art. The stress I felt when trying to juggle the traps, gun and fire was eating away at my anxiety haha!

Nicely done on creating a creepily unique game! ^^

I really liked the visual style and the simplicity of the gameplay. It's immediately clear what it takes to get through the night, and it's really cool that something new appears every night. You've got a beautiful game cycle. The only thing I would like to know is the timer of the night.

I really liked the hand drawn visuals and music! I also liked how the coordinates you put in the game actually are a real place in russia, that was pretty cool to find out.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, the coordinates were not written randomly =)

Игра в лучших традициях русского геймдева (Гульман, Месть боксёра и т. д.)

I really like the overall atmosphere of the game. It has a strange calmness outside the night scenes, which is interesting since day typically comes after a bunch of monsters or birds try to kill you. The radio conversations with our fellow soldiers tell a vague story, but you get the sense of it enough. You're completely alone in this war aside from this communication in the morning, and it often feels like the before or after the storm, even if your fellow soldiers probably aren't doing the best. It's a bit peaceful, as I said, showing one side of being alone in a war. You're safe for now, so it's calming, yet at night it becomes tense. You're alone, but in this case, only in the sense of having no allies but you, as things are surely coming out to kill you.

The gameplay was quite difficult for me, but I did manage to beat it. Everything felt solid gameplay wise; it never felt unfair or cheap, if that makes sense. I would love to see more games from you guys with this vibe, but I would love even more story. Really good work on the Gamejam boys.
