About This Game

Dive into the post-apocalyptic world of Bifrostia, populated by two mutant races as well as their robot assistants. The first
Act takes place in the rusted city of Ilgrot, under the rule of an artificial intelligence. Strange things are happening there.



One regular day we discover a space shuttle with a mysterious robot inside. You will have to escape the city,
uncover the robot’s origins, why it is getting hunted and what is happening.



Plunge into the adventure quests with puzzles and mini-games.



It’s a new stylized world with an illustrative atmosphere of retrofuturism, with hand painted 3D locations.



Enjoy the relaxing ambient soundtrack by Alexander Zhelanov with cyberpunk elements.

The wheels are turning! This is the last location that was not started at all.

We are improving  game levels now. In our opinion the result justifies all delays.

What do you guys think about this?

This looks very interesting. It reminds me of Machinarium Nice graphics!

This looks really interesting, the visuals look very unique!

I tried out the demo and it was pretty good (I finished it). A few comments:

- really liked the atmosphere and setup (world building/ fiction etc) - it made me want to know more
- the puzzles were generally pretty good/intuitive and felt the right level of hard/logical

Probably my only real criticism is it lacked some tiny bits of 'polish' which actually would go a long way to increasing the immersion:

- confirmation when you successfully use an item (comment/sound) - at the moment nothing happens....
- it was pretty confusing when the helmet/pda was introduced. what are the helmet/eye augmentations for? I wasn't sure. Again, I think some sort of comment from the main character or text in the PDA would really help

but overall this looks really promising - nice job!

Thanks for your comments and advice!

- It's interesting  and we will take it into account in future updates!

- At first we had an explanation, but in the demo we removed it temporarily as we were not fully sure how everything would be used. These are technical issues.

We want to improve the dialogues and at the same time increase  intuitiveness. Something else will change and probably until release.

Available Alpha v1.0.1: nudiventra.itch.io/mechanic8230. Fixed Alpha 1.0.0 bugs where possible and take into account your tips and opinions.

Updates:
— Added display of a character entering the room in the form of a shadow (in cases when the door is frontal. (Idea by Alexo Mandini);
— A hint that appears at the beginning of the game, informing the player that he can only hold one object in his hand. ( Tip from Airat Muhametdinov);
— Changed some puzzles in the first level and added sounds of "events" (these changes are implemented based on  Exooman advices);
— In the main menu in the settings added the option to enable dubbing, taking into account the selected language (not recommended to use because of poor quality, and moreover, it works only in first level);
— Some animations have been finalized;
— Fixed many bugs found as a result of testing (from what we did);
— Added sounds for confirmation when you successfully use an item(Suggestions from RichSG).





Thank you all for playing the game and writing your opinion about it!
