Greetings! This is our first devlog, where we'll introduce ourselves and what we represent. We are a small team gaining experience in game development. This is our "side" project, and we're working on it because we love the meme universe of the ancient Rus and Slavs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44828911/22710e42e92a33f5b5ead02c7a9608b86ab18faa.png This game is a satirical visual novel about the endless battle between the Slavs Rus and the lizards. We focused on humor (both erotic and dark) and the storyline. It's a pure VN without any mini-games, match-three, etc. Just the plot, interesting choices with consequences, and the atmosphere of the true ancient people. In the game, we wanted to recreate that unique mix of mysticism, brutality, and a touch (or maybe more) of trash. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44828911/cebe67419ddeee9424d78104991ba50f870f8197.jpg We don't hide the fact that we used LLM for content generation, but believe us, there was a lot of refinement. Our artist had plenty to do, and there are quite a few animations in the game as well. The visual style was inspired by the paintings of Ivan Bilibin and Vsevolod Ivanov. The latter, by the way, is the author of all those strange works about Hyperborea and forgotten Slavic cities that I'm sure everyone has come across on the internet. It took more than six months of work during weekends and evenings to create the game. So, comrades, pour yourselves some Baikal water because you're in for an incredible story of friendship, thirst for power, and lost knowledge. And the next devlog is just around the corner, where we'll delve deeper into the game's plot!Read full article on Community Announcements (ssassy.studio)
