Really fun, but a little too unforgiving - deaths are way too constant.

Artwork is stand-out excellent though!

I didn't manage to get to the airport alas, death awaits at every corner of St.Petersburg, lol.

Really nice graphics but music was annoying, I don't think it fits the game well.

I liked it was however a bit confusing i believe i made it to the airport and the plane takes me home but then the game seemed to restart itself after that. For me that was confusing. Love the art btw

Strict interpretation of the theme as an expression i suppose ! I like it ! Sometime death seems inevitable, but it's maybe because I'm too bad !

Nice game ! Awesome graphism !

Love the art style, but I too found a few things confusing. It wasn't all that clear to me what was leading me to death. Russia is tough ya? I wasn't sure what the meter "WC" was for. And I found some dialogue to be confusing. Like the following text from the old lady: Strictly looking at you. What do you want, son? Probably could have been written: Strictly looking at you. "What do you want, son?" to make it more clear what is actually being said to the player from the NPC's.

I'm not sure how to not die, and it's annoying to restart; This game could use some balance to be a bit more forgiving, I think you are doomed to failure in many runs at least.

I played this game on stream at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/163569305 - timestamp 0:34:05

Interesting game! I'm not sure how to win (or if you can). I think I saw everything, though. In my browser I think the icons at the top of the game were cut off, which might be why I didn't understand things!

Really nice polished graphics and great idea!

Interesting innovative concept! The style was unique and beautiful.
It was hard to find out why I die the first times. The for "power bars" should have been promoted more in the beginning.
I would have liked to be able to vote for humor, some things where quite funny.
Great idea good job

Nice little game. I found it a bit confusing at first. Then I tried to play the game in full-screen (which broke the graphics btw) and then the power bars became visible. After that it made more sense :) All in all a job well done.

Made it to the airport the first time but I'm not sure what the implications of each dialog were.
Nice game overall!

Cool art and cool mechanic but it felt like whatever you swiped didn't do much outside of keeping your 4 bars topped up? Felt like I could just keep swiping in any direction with no context and still make it to the end.

Interesting concept, but it basically seems incredibly hard to win after trying a bunch of times... Nice game though!

Lovely graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 39 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFwNYcB13dA
