KEG 2023

I'm very glad I had the opportunity to participate in the Kaliningrad Annual Jam (KEG), the theme was "Keeper of Ruins." The player is a lighthouse keeper (based on the lighthouse in Zalivino, KO) inside a toy sphere. Voxel atmosphere, day and night cycle. During the day, everyday tasks, and at night, you need to fend off ghosts, otherwise they'll tear the whole island apart. Turned out to be a decent meditative game.

Hamster's Escape - GGJ 2018

This story begins long ago in a distant secret laboratory where no ordinary human foot has ever set foot. Once everything was fine, many happy neighbors enjoyed their hamster life, where wonderful food fell from the sky for dances, and the light shone brighter only from the morning jog in the favorite wheel. But something went wrong and only Lambert remained alive. Supplies gradually started running out, and the face of the man in the white coat hadn't been seen for a long time; something needed to be done. For this purpose, resourceful Lambert came up with a wonderful system; only a hit would shatter the ball, but he needed to ensure energy transmission for fast growth despite having paws.

Island Battle

Resonance - GGJ 2017

This game tells the story of a lost soul wandering through floating islands. Our character must find a way out to find peace. But it's not that simple. The mighty crystal - the heart of the small cloud area - is gradually cracking, resonating around locations, creating an unfavorable situation for both the area and our character. Music plays a significant role in the game, accompanying your actions. Correctly passing locations leads to your immediate victory, while mistakes lead to defeat or uncomfortable situations where balance is hard to maintain. The world is crumbling. You have 6 minutes to reach the top. R - restart. E - Use.

Terminal Mania - Game for Qiwi Wallet

Flash game. The plot was built around setting up and taking care of a terminal, with each terminal generating income. Terminals needed to be collected, protected from drunk homeless people; users also got angry and vandalized our terminal if they couldn't pay. As a result, the gameplay turned out to be quite amusing, and the client was satisfied.

Quick Shutdown Shortcut

There's a little-known way to create a shortcut that will perform shutdown actions instantly (for lazy people like me).
Create a shortcut and enter the following in the Target field:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll,SetSuspendState, this is for hibernation.
For shutting down the system:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe PowrProf.dll, shutdown -s -t 00

p.s. If you have a different Windows location, don't forget to modify it accordingly.

Material Facing the Player

There's a misconception that you can't create logic inside a material to make it always face the player. Through trial and error, I managed to achieve the desired effect using World Position Offset.

CSS Style for Basic HTML5 Player

When I was building this website, I needed to play audio. Unfortunately, the default HTML5 player's visual style doesn't suit a dark theme. Surprisingly, I couldn't find anything decent online (without JS) until now. So, after studying the specification, I created my own style.
You can download it from this link, just add these values to your style file.
