just awesome, and the voice acting is carrying the process greatly! респект)

albyk 2021-10-05 01:01

Such cool Graphics and great voice acting, really interesting story line as well i was hooked from the beginning

dawnflame 2021-10-05 01:22

A really cool concept, very atmospheric too!

zvyaga 2021-10-05 07:09

Ребята, очень круто, я как будто вернулся в детство и послушал "Модель для сборки". Очень классный сюжет, озвучка крутая, для 3-х дней шедевр. -------------------------------------------------------- Guys, it's really cool, it's like I went back to my childhood and listened to the "Model for Assembly". Very cool plot, cool voice acting, a masterpiece for 3 days.

cerieyele 2021-10-05 10:40

impressed with voice acting, simple, but catchy gameplay

govoruhin 2021-10-05 13:04

Very cool is it possible to complete this?

morhailen 2021-10-05 13:38

@fluorescent, @albyk, @zvyaga, @cerieyele, Thanks a lot guys. We appreciate your support. Спасибо за тёплые слова, ребята. Мы старались, а актёры решили тоже не отставать. =)

@govoruhin, We will try. Постараемся довести до ума. =9

d3w 2021-10-05 17:13

Понравилась атмосфера и арт. Молодцы! )

morhailen 2021-10-05 19:19

@d3w, спасибо большое! Похоже, будем всё же доводить до финала.

uglyswedishfish 2021-10-06 17:50

AMAZING Art and voice acting!!! I don't speak russian unfortunately, but I was still able to enjoy this a lot!

andrey30353 2021-10-06 18:03

Thanks for your comments! We appreciate it a lot

rainbowdied 2021-10-06 18:06

больше игр с таким артом тут не видел. это круто. прям моё-моё. звук создает настрой. озвучка кинематографичности. но со своего мака через браузер толком не смог поиграть. правда когда запускал игру ожидал что что-то более рисованное будет а не 3D. but anyway

andrey30353 2021-10-06 18:31

Но это не 3д, это спрайты)

geckoo1337 2021-10-06 19:09

Странный рассказ. Мне очень понравился, но играя на русском языке я не понял всё - доказательство того, что обязательно я должен продолжать своё изучение русского языка. Все умерли из-за меня :) Ваша видеоигра напоминала мне другие повести, которые я прочитал когда я был молодой человек, в том числе научно-фантастические произведения братьев Стругацких и Андрея Тарковского. Голоса были отличны - вы настоящие актёры. Я хочу хранить в сердце это выражение ; Богиня стала матерью всех людей, а некоторые предпочли остаться сиротами. Вас поздравляю за то, что вы сделали. Желаю вам успехов. Пока ++

What an amazing game with a strange and immersive mood. I really loved it. It reminds me some stories which I read when I was younger, studying russian language. Well done - you deserve more ratings. This is one of my favorite entries for the 49th LudumDare. It fits with the theme. I wish you the best ++

dj-depressive 2021-10-06 19:54

This game is insanely cool!!! Love the style of it and how you manage to create such an engaging and well put together story during 72 hours is beyond me. WELL DONE!

t1h4n 2021-10-06 19:54

Very cool stuff!

morhailen 2021-10-06 20:04

@geckoo1337, We did English in a hurry, so there might be mistakes. Naturally, we will correct them in the future. It is a pity that due to a bug in the game, you cannot get a good ending. But we will work on it. Thank you very much for such a detailed review and kind words.

P.S. - You can also play in English - by changing the language in the menu.

transylvanian-blacksmiths 2021-10-06 20:14

Killer graphics and sounds. Well done voice acting.

ryanjavanshir 2021-10-06 20:59

Really impressive that you did this in the time frame. Great visuals, surprisingly engaging voice acting and interesting story. Nice!

morhailen 2021-10-06 21:01

@ryanjavanshir, @transylvanian-blacksmiths, thanks a lot for kind words!

betamorfosis 2021-10-06 21:03

Wow. Absolutely perfect mood and voice acting. That was incredible guys. I was terrified all game long as for the mother to wake up. Thanks so much for this entry, no way I'm going to sleep after this one, I need to forget about that mother ahah. Beautiful

pilcrow 2021-10-06 21:08

Im genuinely speechless. Its more of a work of art than a game! amazing!

criobite 2021-10-06 21:10

This is a really cool premise, I feel like there's definitely room to explore this world/story further. The sheer scale and surreal aspects really draw you in.

jan5366x 2021-10-06 21:18

I Don't understand russian but the mood of voice acting sounds very nice, graphics is also very greate!

morhailen 2021-10-06 21:25

@jan5366x, try to switch language in Main Menu. =9

@betamorfosis, @pilcrow, @criobite, Thanks for your words of encouragement, friends. Our team really appreciates this.

quite-good 2021-10-06 21:45

Really the best story i have seen of all the entries yet. Interesting concept along with high quality voice acting, which is uncommon to see in these game jams. The artwork was really cool, and I think the perspective was pretty interesting. I liked how my choices had dramatic effect, even if I was unsure of my decisions. Well done, and I will keep an eye out for your future projects!

morhailen 2021-10-06 21:54

@quite-good, Thanks a lot. We had exactly this task - to make something complete and in a format different from the usual jam. We will try to finish this game and put it on Steam. And there, most likely, new ones will appear.

jan5366x 2021-10-06 22:09

@morhailen Don't worry I was playing in EN

pixelydian 2021-10-06 23:58

I don't speak (Russian?) but that voice acting was incredible. After I played I saw the comment that I could apparently switch to English. The art was absolutely stunning. My one criticism is that the white text was hard to read against the background. This looks like it took a ton of work and its amazing you got it done in three days!

morhailen 2021-10-07 01:33

@jan5366x, Glad to hear!

morhailen 2021-10-07 01:34

@pixelydian, yeah, this is Russian. =9 We will FIX the white text in next updates, thanks a lot!

6smith 2021-10-07 03:19

incredible unique entry!! short, sweet, good writing, *amazing* voice acting, interesting story... it has it all, honestly. only (minor) complaint is that the text can be hard to read sometimes, would've benefitted from a dark outline

xpoho 2021-10-07 07:03

Молодцы! Хорошая идея. Можно попробовать развить ее, например, добавить еще игровых механик.

preda 2021-10-07 12:26

This is really impressive, the visuals are really cool, not to mention the voice lines. They really well done, I guess that is what professionals mean. The only problem I had is, I had a hard time reading all the text as the there was no outline on them or not a lot of contrast

javicoder 2021-10-07 12:54

incredible game, superb atmospherae and sound quality. Although I don't speak Russian, you can tell they are professionals. It doesn't look like a game of a jam. Fantastic job

morhailen 2021-10-07 16:13

@6smith, Thank you very much for your kind words. Text color corrected in post-jam version for Windows. You can download and watch. = 9

@xpoho, Обязательно. Планируем допилить игру полностью и выложить в Стиме. Спасибо!

@preda, Thank you very much, very nice to hear that. Now a lot of bugs are fixed in the post-jam version for Windows.

@javicoder, Thank you for your appreciation. And our actors are high-class dubbing professionals. It's lucky when the team has a voiceover director.

tory 2021-10-07 17:40

Nothing is clear but very interesting)

morhailen 2021-10-07 17:45

@tory, thanks a lot!

scrawach 2021-10-07 19:25

Awesome! Very cool voice acting, art, story and gameplay creates wonderful experience. Thanks for game!

morhailen 2021-10-07 20:11

@scrawach, thanks for commenting. You are welcome!

donatello 2021-10-07 22:39

Really good atmosphere, the sounds along with the graphic style really built anxiety in me and the actors sounded really good, I don't speak Russian but the feeling I had from hearing them was good, the narrative universe seems intriguing and I would like to see it further explored in the future. Very cool design for Mother she was creepy as hell! I don't know if someone already pointed it out or if you already know that but I experienced a bug when I clicked on the "Repeat" button after the first run, the game restarted but after the narrator finished the opening the game froze on that screen. I was playing it on the Bugfixed 86 version and with English language selected. Good work guys! Hope to see it complete soon on Steam as you mentioned above!

morhailen 2021-10-07 23:32

@donatello, Dear Donatello, first of all, you are my favorite turtle. Secondly, thank you very much for such a detailed review. This game is already the second in this setting and this universe (the first frankly failed and was on Ludum Dare 46), we plan to make games based on this universe and beyond.

We know about the restart bug, but thanks anyway for telling us about it. The more complaints, the faster we will fix it. Also thanks for mentioning the version and settings You played with.

Thank you very much! The commentary is very inspiring for further work on the game.

trexxak 2021-10-08 00:36

I'm not too sure what I just witnessed, but I'm a big fan of it! The art in this game is simply something I didn't expect of a jam game, the sheer quality of the voice acting (I don't speak Russian, the production quality however did translate!), the intuitive gameplay... (I didn't really know what I was doing - finding corresponding text passages to mythological symbols, correct?). Wow! I love this so much! Thrilled to see the complete version one day!

morhailen 2021-10-08 20:42

@trexxak, Thanks! Every new fan makes us think about creating a new game in the same setting. At this jam we had the task of making something as non-jamish as possible. Translation into English was done in a hurry - if there are stupidities and mistakes, then correct us. We decided to do Russian voice acting for two reasons: we could do it - and we wanted to introduce more people to the Russian language. There is not much of it in games, especially outside of Russia - and for the most part it is distorted and voiced by non-native speakers. You got it right about the gameplay - matching symbol and text (and three options: success, failure and critical failure). We will definitely release the full version on Steam, thank you very much!

darthwaxus 2021-10-10 12:58

Such an anxious atmosphere. Great voice acting and visual style.

morhailen 2021-10-10 14:55

@darthwaxus, thank you very much!

npr0nn 2021-10-11 05:49

The voice acting together with the art made this game such an piece of art, its sheer quality and I loved, the gameplay feels intuitive and in the same way transpose an feeling of mystery, didn't expected find anything like this on a game jam, amazing

guitarbro 2021-10-12 03:01

Now that's a unique entry! Very distinct art style and the fact that you got actual narration for all the voicelines is pretty great (even if I can't understand the Russian, at least there was English text). The music fit the mood perfectly and the story was very interesting to piece together.

The only thing that really confused me was the actual gameplay. Was there a way to know which one was the right answer each time other than taking a random guess? I feel like there was and I just missed it. Either way, I managed to lose the first playthrough and then get to an ending on the second attempt (are there multiple endings and I got a bad one? Or does it always have a bad ending? I won't spoil it for anyone scrolling through. :stuck_out_tongue: )

Aside from that, my only real suggestion would be to make the text not require so much panning up and down as I didn't realize I had to move my mouse down to see some of the things the people were saying.

All things considered, a really cool game! Well done.

gullyngames 2021-10-12 20:45

This is really cool! The game has amazing graphics, and the audio is great as well (though I couldn't understand the voice acting). This is a really unique entry, great job!

morhailen 2021-10-16 20:07

@npr0nn, Thank you very much for your kind words. We just had a goal to do something not in the format of a jam.

@guitarbro, Thank you very much for such a great review. It was very pleasant to read it. Most likely, the complexity of the gameplay lies in the very fast translation into English. There is a chance that we messed up with the translation. The updated version of the game will receive a high-quality translation into English - we promise that. The game has two endings - good and bad. Due to a bug, the web version on itchi contains only a bad one. The bugfixed version for Windows allows you to get a good ending. About the floating camera and text - we will try to fix this so that English-speaking players do not feel discomfort. Thank you for your comment! We are very glad that you liked our game!

@gullyngames, Thank you very much, we appreciate your words!

guitarbro 2021-10-16 20:59

@morhailen ok that makes much more sense! Still impressive you supported more than one language in a jam game regardless.

morhailen 2021-10-16 21:28

@guitarbro, Last time we did not manage to make an English translation and did not manage to load the game on itchi - we are learning from our mistakes. =)

guitarbro 2021-10-17 00:26

@morhailen lol making progress.

jarnero 2021-10-18 16:11

Давно игра с джема не вызывала эмоций. Но у вас получилось!

Озвучка, графика, сюжет - топ. Единственное - иногда не нативно по связям символов и предложений.

morhailen 2021-10-24 16:31

@jarnero, спасибо большое за тёплые слова. Текст для символов и сами символы мы ещё точно будем улучшать.
