How fun, the review seems great, I'm so hoping this game gets greenlit on Steam soon!

A new writing comp is up    If Blondbraid doesn't mind, I might use those daggers as part (along with bloody backs) of the trophies for the new comp.

Sure, sounds like a fun idea!

Thanks so much for your support, guys. We're getting there!

Awesome, I'm so excited for this game, when will it be released? 

It looks impressive! Will you be able to climb the waterfall? 

Finished. It was a real treat to play   
The puzzles were fairly easy yet the storytelling made my day.
I like the episodic format too.

Using the smooth scrolling module when the charaters walk outside may reduce Olga's jerkiness.

I did think about trying to implement smooth scrolling, but I didn't notice the jerkiness in Olgas walking until I had already completed most of the rooms and graphics
in the game, and learning lots of new things as well as redoing a lot of the objects and backgrounds simply felt like too big a task for me. 

I also wish to thank you all for the kind words, it's been a week I released the game and 50 downloads already! 

Cool, it looks trippy!

Since Frodo's vot broke the tie between Mandle and Kconan,
I hereby declare Kconan winner with Mandle at a close second
and Sinitrena at third place.

Here are your Trophies:

Here is my take on the theme, I was going for something Lovecraft-inspired:

I've counted the votes, and since there is a tie between Mandle and Kconan,
I suppose it's up to me to decide. But I have such a hard time deciding between
such different yet interesting takes on the theme, I'll give you one more day to vote.

If nobody has voted and broken the tie by this time tomorrow, I promise to declare a
winner and hand out trophies then.

It grinds my gears whenever people making games/comics/movies promoting a "strong female character"

You could stop right there if you wanted, because it shouldn't be exceptional to have one.

I like your analysis. I remember thinking this about Nina in the Secret Files games. She gives so much sass all game that she just seems like a rude person. There's a point in one game where she gives sass to a SWAT crew in her underwear. She's strong, independent, but she needs Max because... ? Also, they end up getting married, so she really is the archetype you're talking about.

I think Nina is far from the worst example, but yeah, so many of her lines are pretty cringe-worthy, especially the jokes on housecleaning, they felt recycled from the 1950's. 

While we're at the subject, it also bugs me when people claim that female action heroes are unrealistic because the average man is slightly larger and stronger than the average woman.
Aside from the existence of guns, bows, spears and naginatas rendering size a moot point, male action heroes defeat bigger and stronger foes all the time!
Like when Indiana Jones fights that huge, muscular guy, or when Indiana Jones fights that other huge, muscular guy. 

It grinds my gears whenever people making games/comics/movies promoting a "strong female character"
and say "she's not like other girls, she's a strong independent woman" and then proceeds to use exactly the same cookie-cutter character we've all seen before,
who starts out being pointlessly rude only to have a change of heart and fall for the hero anyway, and despite being introduced as a strong fighter just ends up being
used as damsel in distress in the third act anyway. Seriously, these characters are so predictable they should be considered walking spoilers by now.

It's exciting to see you make new music tracks, they are pretty good too! 

Also, my latest game is out now, and I used seven of your tracks in the game!

[Great news! Congrats for the release!]

   
Great news!
Congrats for the release!

Bye! Got to play that game now! 

Wow, big congratulations on releasing!

Thank you both, how nice of you!

Done!
Nice little game. Good storytelling. Great ending.

Thank you, I'm happy that you liked it!

It's OUT! Yes! It's out!!! 

But ewww... need to wait for a mirror... 

I thought I included a mirror on the AGS page, is it working properly? 

Think you mean https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2150 and not https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2050 ? :O (interesting coincidence btw)

Congrats on the release! I've always loved your art style! , will try give this one a go!

Thank you so much for pointing that out, I've corrected the issue! Yeah, that is an odd coincidence with the numbers, that's probably why I didn't see it sooner.
Anyways, I'm glad that you like my art style, do let me know what you think of the game once you finish it! 

If you have any questions on how to complete Sniper and spotter serving the motherland,
post them here!

At last, the game is released!!! 

You can head here to play the Sniper and spotter serving the motherland!

[Get the game here!]

Ivan and Olga, two soldiers in the red army, finds themselves tasked with preventing a small village from falling into enemy hands. Their orders are simple, destroy the bridge and poison the food and water supply before the enemy soldiers can reach the village and destroy the bridge or poison the food and water supply...

Get the game here!

Sniper and spotter serving the motherland is a standalone sequel to my previous game Sniper and spotter being patriotic.
If you like this game, there is also another short game in the same setting called Fallen soldier.

The AGS games in production page for this game can be found here.

Well, it looks like the terrifically, fan-fically and magnifically prolifical Mr Slasher has won the crown unchallenged.

Reminds me of Monkey Island... 

Anyway, congratulations slasher, your game was the best game by far this month!
