Please note: Most of the ambient audio was added by me in the edit as the game is still in development and doesn't have any yet (so the ambient audio in the full game will be much better than my effort!). All the sound FX and music is from the actual game though. It's a pretty freaky game. Hope you like it! :)
These few words in the beginning tell us more about depression than the whole feminist "Depression Quest" bore. Firefox still refuses to play newly uploaded videos but I cheat with Chrome. Good job as always, you are a beast, Sir!
I believe "Monogorsk" takes inspiration either from Norilsk or from Vorkuta. Huh, interesting moment - "Mono-gorsk" probably originated from "monogorod" - a town with only one major factory/industry, which is the core of it's entire economy. Everything else exists "in orbit" of that "big beast". P.S. Design of the creatures and locations strongly remind me about Soviet adult animation from 80s.
Also "Militsiya" is a term used by the Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc countries during rhe same time period. Some former Soviet countries still use it occasionally but I think this game takes place during Soviet era.
@@azalago They specifically mention the flashlight being from the "Soviet era", meaning this is after the dissolution. That also makes much more sense because the level of decay depicted is more like what happened to Eastern Bloc countries after the USSR dissolved and all of their industries were privatized and their wealth was stripped by international corporations. That lead to a lot of abandoned factories and other such buildings left to just slowly fall apart.
Lol, as opposed to...sleeping and hunting and looking warily out at the foliage? Life has always been boring, civilisation gave us options. Look at dogs, now THAT is a pointless life.
@@yueshijoorya601 Exactly, options. The "normal" depicted above is specific to certain types of cities. It's a big world out there, there's places with far better weather, prospects, and people to spend your life with.
The art style is what caught my attention but Matvei is very relatable. Having issue letting go of past trauma and it holding him back as well as wanting to try and help every other lost soul he comes across as is human nature. Can't wait for more.
I wasn't paying attention when I clicked on this video. Didn't know it was a horror game until the protag mentioned working in retail. Also that 1st Game Over screen is unique and haunting, I like that. Reminds me of Bloodborne.
the words written on a bloody sheet of paper at 44:20 are lyrics of the song called Uvula - you and your shadow (увула - ты и твоя тень). Check it out, it correllates with this game and it's theme.
@@xto_t0374 это просто правда что многие промышленные города - бесперспективные земли. особенно в красноярске, и тоже в китае, и в США. Современная жизнь в многих странах, не только в СНГ.
It's like David Cronenberg and Junji Ito played Silent Hill then read about the Backrooms and decided to make a collab. I am absolutely LOVING this aesthetic and can't wait to see how the game turns out!
Hands down the most disturbing enemy designs since the first Dead Space game. I would like to ask the developer (if he is watching this of course) to NOT add jumpscares in the final build. Because horror genre nowadays is so badly flooded with such games, and it would be a shame if this title goes down that path.
Reminds me of that one comic where the guy gets dragged into that vast underground cave system to be eaten by insectoid creatures and then he turns into an eldritch horror.
@@youwatch2muchtv it doesn't really have a name, it's an old MS paint comic, it starts with this guy seeing a monster in his house then insects kidnap him and use him as food.
Given the mood and tone and theme and style of the game I don't expect it to end like this but...I hope if there is more than one ending one of them is at least Matvei escaping the hell he found himself in. Guys miserable enough as it is he doesnt need to end by some...horrific random human eating/killing monster.
The aesthetic of that game is SO fucking on point. I really love to see people pushing the limits of simple game engine like this (I assume this is RPG maker here) I like that is very "Silent Hillesque" without feeling derivative
the three frame movement and how the body looks while walking left and right does look like an RPG maker engine game, and the idea that you can achieve that look in rpg maker is fucking nuts
@@monotone2256 I do recommend you to check out more RPG makers games then, especially the "RPG maker survival horror" there are a lot of small indie projects with fucking crazy ideas and visuals out there that really push the engine
For other part of the World it's just another horror. But for me, russian, it's great gold, because I thought we can't make a single game. I very proud about this developers and hope, that they will go well.
I’ve kept on coming back to this a good few times today. The absolute screaming silence of the death scenes with brutal churning sounds of a body being murdered/mutilated is just so unnerving but brilliantly brutal. I WANT MORE
Really relatable. Not just the retail job but wanting to die until a painful method presents itself, then you know no one really wants to die, they just think they do.
There are a certain charm on a look and art style like this. On one hand, Its ugly at best. On the other hand, It fits and really giving alot of atsmosphere that exist only as one of a kind too. Hope to see this as a full game on Steam, Would bought it.
because it is, it makes you feel depressed and sad thats how every country is like this like america russia and china only some places some places have colorful decent place to live and too happy and too bright some places are bleak and sad
Why you even made up Monogorsk city name if we already have a real city *MAGNETOGORSK* ? That is more badass name that you can ever imagine. And absolutely real *MAGNETOGORSK* is way more worst place than a Silent Hill. Folks from *MAGNETOGORSK* go on vacation to Silent Hill. Just to see nice things and get some rest you know.
Holy shit, I really like this. Amazing art and attention to detail. And despite just watching a video it really made me feel unsettled at times. Lots of butt-clenching moments trying to get past these creatures without getting spotted.
Artwork heavily reminds me of UMAMI's style for " Interface " ..... One of my favorites, hard to believe its designed & animated all in photoshop... Curious if this was too
Man, if I had a kolpeck for every time an old woman gutted me with a pointed stick and pushed me into a putrid maggot-strewn pit of viscera, I'd be rich
Idk why but it reminds me of that horror webtoons with body horror called Lacrim. A huge classic horror comic and disturbing too. I recommend y'all to read because omg does it slap. And it's all hand drawn as well with red ink specifically and black too to give off that disturbing feeling of hopelessness.

Great work! It really helps a lot in assisting the game vibes as desolate world
Good job, it definitely helps to create proper mood.
Wow that's really going the extra mile to help the devs and to give us a better experience. Great stuff, a winner is you!
Did Alpha provide the moaning and groaning sounds?

@@mortimerwake2974 Good to know, I'll be honest I got distracted A LOT while watching this and I definitely missed stuff. Thanks.
It's really not a good sign for our civilization that what's considered a "normal" life for a lot of people is so existentially terrifying and bleak.

"Also I don't need this metal bar anymore"
mm, I can think of some Silent Hill-related reasons you might want to carry a metal bar.
"Just working to pay bills and exist further" I didn't realise it was based on real life!
I feel personally attacked
Work to live, never live to work
i hjate this world. where everything is too difficult in life.
@@darassylmoniakam You'll become stronger. Don't worry.
Simple Russian days
Honestly, I want more of this game. I want to see Matvei live. I want to learn more about the murderous lady, and the cat (yes, even the cat).
I am so glad that someone else in this world cares about cats. You are a 100% wonderful person.
she could be the crazy lady killed matvei mom
@@GregoryTheGr8ster of course. Cats are great, in the right hands.
I spoke to the creator of the game and he told me he didn't planned a happy ending.
I can’t wait to see more too!! Is there by any chance a date when the finished game will be out or anything like that??
"These red objects make my head hurt and save my progress..."
Nice
So Silent Hill!
The art style is what caught my attention but Matvei is very relatable. Having issue letting go of past trauma and it holding him back as well as wanting to try and help every other lost soul he comes across as is human nature. Can't wait for more.

truly a universal language regardless of the culture.
The first minute and twenty seconds is the true existential dread horror story of adult life
I'm only about 10 minutes in and this game is the perfect kind of ugly.
This isn't even horror, it's just an accurate depiction of what life is like in Eastern Europe.

I´d buy the shit out of this, it´s like Silent Hill had a child with Yume Nikki
I love Slavic indie games with dark themes like this, but usually they end so miserably
Straight up gem of a game here. It's almost more art than game how relatable yet cosmologically horrifying this game is.
It's like David Cronenberg and Junji Ito played Silent Hill then read about the Backrooms and decided to make a collab. I am absolutely LOVING this aesthetic and can't wait to see how the game turns out!
yeah... I was definitely sensing Junji Ito vibes.
exacdtly what i've though
i really like it too, it has a complexity and yet the design seem eerily familiar
try hen, his wife cartoon. Or any other things from Pilot studio
Show it Junji Ito. I’d love to see his reaction video...
Disturbing, nightmarish and has a daily life sadness and dispair that hits home. I hope this indie gem get the attention it deserves in little time.
This is a horror game in it's truest sense. Holy smokes...
Wow. I REALLY dig the artwork in this. It's beautifully grotesque.
lord gore has grotesque aesthetic
Todd Howard: “You can do anything!”
Sirogi: “You can’t do anything.”
20:50, props to the sound design. This game probably has the most "icky-icky" sound effects I've heard in a long while!
Most normal day in Russia
Damn, the protagonist kinda hit home hard
Facts, that hit close

I love the artwork, everything just looks so brittle, like it's about to break and disintegrate in a million pieces and end up blown away by the wind.
Simple graphics/gameplay but great art direction and worldbuilding--can't wait for the full thing! 45 minutes wasn't long enough I need to know more
Love the sound design in this game. If I’m not mistaken the sound used at 30:00 is a emperor penguin calling.
I had to go back and listen, but I'm pretty sure it is!
Let's watch this russian indie horror game.
as someone who's recently lost a loved one that intro speech absolutely obliterated me
Reminds me of that one comic where the guy gets dragged into that vast underground cave system to be eaten by insectoid creatures and then he turns into an eldritch horror.
Name?

If you see a demon tree with bodies around it, maybe don’t eats it’s fruit. I guess that would be one of the morals here.
Giving me Fear and Hunger vibes. I like those vibes.
This is basically my life except mother thing. I also want to create escapism just like this world.
If remove the horror part, everything else is true about the territories far from moscow.
Outside the Moscow Ring Road - there is no life.
Во всем виноват Алексей Навальный
@@Аптекарь999 that sounds so harsh but I believe you. Kinda sad how all of Russia's development is focused mostly on Moscow.
@@hazzmati Ironically, but Moscow has trillion rubles budget and even still has theproblems.
@@hazzmati All this is a joke, of course, but still there are problems. Russia is completely different now and everything is not so gray and bad.

For other part of the World it's just another horror. But for me, russian, it's great gold, because I thought we can't make a single game. I very proud about this developers and hope, that they will go well.
Ever heard of Pathfinder? I think it's a great example of russian game industry.

Pretty sure it looks lika a common salix viminalis, my dude.

"I shouldn't have done that"
Lies. You love cats and want to help them, Matvei. Scratches are the reality of owning cats.
Slavic games and bleak, surreal horror. Name a more iconic duo.

thats how every country is like this
like america russia and china
only some places
some places have colorful decent place to live
and too happy and too bright some places are bleak and sad
Honestly I feel like that gritty, raw ugliness is part of what makes the aesthetic so oppressive
If you have severe depression...the beginning of the game is very triggering. Had to skip that part.
Why you even made up Monogorsk city name if we already have a real city *MAGNETOGORSK* ? That is more badass name that you can ever imagine.
