Basically the theme usage is: You go to the center of the earth to try and retake your lost snack

So, did ya ever felt that you need to be an angry Russian guy whos snacks had been stolen by a demonic rat that lives in your basement?

No? Just me?

Anyways, if you wanted that, which I'd doubt, you have it in this absolutely god-awful gane made for ludum dare 48 in 72 hours by a snack and a squirrel.

Enjoy, and remember that no rats (and no Russians) were hurt while creating this game.

Oh, and also the creators are Russian themselve- wha? Polish is NOT Russian? Shut up, no one will notice.

​​​We really like Russians pls don't sue us Putin

Very good game! With a lot of little interaction, it's pretty fun, but I had impression that magic attack always miss.

The beginning is very nice, really had a good laugh. However, I couldn't finish the game due to walking into spiders _all the time_ which was really annoying. Good job on the bad puns xD

The game was pretty cool but at times I wasn't sure where to go.

@alyd-asmar xD I've tried to not make them be random encounters but it would take too much time - In fact I almost didn't make it beacuse of it haha. I've included a way for you to escape as some sort of "Choose your own difficulty".

Also, I've made rubble jokes for like 3 days straight, help me

Nice game, very funny! Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to get past the giant room with all the spiders in. I think you move a bit too slow to really be able to explore things without it getting annoying. I also wish you could move diagonally. As a side note, the music and sound was very good, but the volume was balanced poorly - it gave me a heart attack when I started up the game and for some reason the volume controls only go in increments of 20. It should go at the very least in increments of 5.

Your game took a very different take on the deeper and deeper theme. I liked it! You did really good on making it humorous and the world was fun to explore. Loved beating up the rat dummy. The only thing I see that could be improved is the audio. I don't know if it was just me, but when I got to the place with the mining tracks the wind was really harsh. Overall, pretty good game!!!

Hey, good on you for putting it together! Congrats! It's always a challenge :) I will say the map felt a little too directionless, and there were a lot of red herrings where I thought a door should go somewhere, but it didn't. Also, you might consider slowing down the encounter rate on the spider floor- the combination of a huge, sprawling map and constant spider interruptions with no variation was a bit of a bother- still, I had fun playing it! Thanks for putting it together.

@iron-leonem thanks! For the spiders, while I was making the map it was smaller than it was in the game on the preview. I could just click the button - actual size, but I forgo it existed xD. Definitely my fault, but it's kinda a fun story. I'll try to mess with the ecounter rate and see if it will be better.

Cool game :) I loved the jokes :D. How long does it take to beat the big spider? I spent like 10min. and sadly enough lost hope to win :P. Other than that good music and art :).

Hey, we don't drink soplitca unless we're in Poland on holidays. And Sushitto... What is it? We only eat vodka, which is brewed for us by our bears. Putin will find you all for that(no).

I didn't expect to play a jrpg about Russians. It was fun))

very funny game. i am not a big rpg fan but you made the story enjoyable for me to continue with it. it would have been nice to show items that could be picked with maybe some indicator. most of the time i feel i was just clicking everywhere. love the rat. thanks for making the game.

The game started well. I enjoyed the into and the first couple of levels. The rest unfortunately were just way too long and tedious. The boss too was not interesting as it had way too much health and you can just heal infinitely.
The ending is also just a black screen with music. I guess you just ran out of time.

As a russian I can appreciate the humor, I also really enjoyed the visuals and the music. I'm not to sure if drinking vodka does anything though and the combat text is somewhat buggy, everyone is just always attacking with vodka, there could be a bit more combat options as well imo. Nonetheless, a solid entry, I really liked the game. Good job!
