A very vibey game. Nice graphics, nice sound design. Awesome set of cassettes for dubbing. Great game to chill out in the evening

It’s immersive, but where’s the gameplay?
@myokka Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted to achieve. @kremlebot You could consider this a small puzzle.
Это мой сын! мой мальчик! или наоборот это мой папа... да... это мой папа....
Wow, the art is so appealing and cozy, literally an eye candy. Impressive. Very nice.
P.S. Doesn't a "dubber" translate from one language to another? And in ex-USSR context it relates to a home-brew voice-over with the all time classics: "ты глупый или что-то? (are you stupid or something?)"
@metalgear Thank you for your kind words.
Most likely, you are absolutely right about the dubber. But honestly, I can’t even imagine what you’d call someone who churns out pirated copies back in the days of VHS tapes.
@artalasky a duper?
Wow, the graphics are absolutely stunning! A solid 5 stars from me!
As for the gameplay, I would've loved a little more interactivity. I think adding just one or two factors that affect the quality of the tape recordings could make the gameplay much more varied. And maybe the new movies could be hidden at first and unlocked as rewards for making good recordings of the previous ones.
But of course, it's your game, and you know best! Either way, the visual style absolutely blew me away. Fantastic work!
Nice one. Great game!
Where’s the gameplay, Lebowski?
Looks cool, but AI art. I like the mechanic of hitting on equipment, but the game is completely broken. The recording process gets stuck in an infinite loop. In total, my feelings are mixed. It feels as though no actual human developer ever laid a hand on this game.
Отличный арт, жаль не хватило времени на гемплей
A fun little experience! Like you said, more a graphics concept. But for what I saw, I really liked it! Smashing the device felt good and had great "feedback".
I've done the same thing before, spending too much time on the art with little to give for gameplay haha but the art in this looks sick so time worth spent I say. I also love how you can beat up the machine.
