Rumors are that there is a creepy creature crawling at nights in this forest: half a man, half a wolf. Nearby villiagers find enourmously large traces of unknown beast time to time. Many hunters went into the forest, trying to track and kill the beast, but nobody came back alive.

Facts are that there is no calm place for peaceful werewolf in this formerly calm and quite forest. Loud peasants shouting for no reason, curious hunters tracking your traces in search of glory - all this makes you tired, angry and hungry.

So, okay, this is a network game, you can play as a werewolf or as a hunter. Game assumes that you have friend to play with over Internet.

Control: WASD - walking
Mouse - aiming
Left Mouse Button - shooting / biting
Spacebar - jump over tree (Werewolf feature ONLY)

To run game just do double click. If it's not working run from the console "java -jar za_bochok_ldjam-35-assembly-2.3.jar"

I was stuck on the pairing screen

Really nice game but i was stuck in the pairing screen for quite some time. I really liked how each person had different roles.Nice entry.

@marmpa, you can try this again, I'm online now and ready to play!

fullmontis23 Apr 2016, 10:04

I really like this! The blocked view crated for some tense gameplay and an excellent mood. The differences in style are balanced. I can see this working very well as a small two player game. Very nice!

In case anyone gets stuck on the pairing screen you could also run the game twice to at least see it. I like that you got networking in the game in such short time!

HolyBlackCat23 Apr 2016, 12:05

Sadly, there was no other players, so I had to open to instances and play solo.

Anyway this is a nice game, I really liked the mood that you've managed to make.

HolyBlackCat23 Apr 2016, 12:07

Also, I got that reference to a russian lullaby in the title.

I really like the idea of a network game, but maybe you could've added a solo game as well. It's kinda hard to find a opponent when not many people are playing your game.

Nice asymetry balanced with vision cone and long range. Pretty ambitious & risky to make an online game requiring pairing but it worked really well. :)
Very nice mood too!

Stechas24 Apr 2016, 08:47

Graphically well implemented game with a little bit of tense in possitive sense. Singleplayer would be also good addition to the game.

goost24 Apr 2016, 09:17

Nice, artstyle, cool online feature.
Getting to choose your partner (for playing with friend) would be awesome and also the ending is kinda abrupt.

BubuIIC24 Apr 2016, 12:25

Looks really great and the music gives it a nice eerie touch!

oparisy24 Apr 2016, 12:26

Yay, scala!

Great mood (music, lighting), liked the clearly differenciated classes. I had no issue pairing, took some seconds at most.

The visual footprints were a nice touch, would have loved some audio hints too.

Multiplayer network games are always hard in jams but you did it! grats!

MayankUnreal24 Apr 2016, 18:28

Nice game with great graphics.I like the concept and the game mechanics

Pestel Crew25 Apr 2016, 17:52

No players online I guess... I think making a multiplayer only game for LD is not so good idea. Gonna rate by video

Croze25 Apr 2016, 19:14

Only had a chance to view the gameplay video, that's the struggle with multiplayer games sometimes :( I'll rate what I feel comfortable rating from the video though! It looks like a really cool horror game :) Not too sure what it had to do with the theme though

pixelpotions25 Apr 2016, 20:08

Cool idea. I always give a bonus point for multiplayer games and you did very well on this one! :D

Lee112126 Apr 2016, 20:30

This is a very enjoyable game

matiasbontempo26 Apr 2016, 22:09

Excellent graphics and very catchy music. Loved the tenssion looking for the other player. Well done!

Reis Mahnic29 Apr 2016, 06:11

Really atmospheric and uncomfortable... in a good way. :)
Neat concept for gameplay that lead to some really tense moments. Also, wonderful visuals.

Amazing game. Hello from Omsk!

neilcorre2k61 May 2016, 12:23

Great game! :D

psychomonster3 May 2016, 23:18

Wow really nice idea... great artwork. Could not find other players so a single player would be really nice. But it is a good job. Well done!

TheCain4 May 2016, 00:18

With some audio I would have given it a 5/5 mood.

Seregy75 May 2016, 18:55

It was really fun to play, but it seems like werewolf is a little bit underpowered

zateamplay7 May 2016, 15:56

Only siberian guys knows how to make atmospheric games about wolves! I don't try scala with libgdx, maybe some advices on it? Anyway good game and great job.
And hello from Novosibirsk :)
