A massive missile strike against Ukraine - 10th October 2022 Dev update

Ukraine War Stories

Ukraine War Stories is a set of visual novels about the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Set in the early months of the war, it tells the stories of civilians trapped on Russian-occupied territory. All stories are based on real events and eyewitness accounts.

Hello We are here today with an urgent report about the massive missile attack against cities all over Ukraine, including the capital Kyiv, where our team is located. This is how the day started for us: Part of the team was already in the office, while other were getting ready to go to work or en route, when the first missiles hit Kyiv in the morning of October 10th. That was followed with several more rounds of attack. Overall, it was reported that 83 missiles of different types (43 shot down by AA defenses) and some kamikaze drones (some say 9 out of 10 destroyed by AA) were deployed in this attack. We decided that everyone could work from home, although some people were already at the office. That came in handy, as subway stopped for a few hours. As a person who lives in Kyiv my whole life and knows the city quite well, I can tell you that most places of the reported attacks does not make any sense in terms of military logic - its just some parks, squares or cars in the middle of the street, some tourist places as well. Nothing like an important military target, or even government building… The only explanation to that could be that the aim of these attacks is terror of civilians and an attempt to sow panic and chaos. Yet, some strikes did hit some power plants across the country, causing power shortages in several large cities (but not in Kyiv). Right now, I am writing this news update in my apartments in Kyiv, not knowing where the next Russian missiles would land… Ukraine War Stories tells the story of the first month of the war. It would take more than one game to tell the story of this entire war… Still, if you want to know how everything started for the civilian people of Ukraine back in February - join us for the full release of our free title on 18 October 2022. The story of this war is far from over. Stand united, support Ukraine! With Best Regards from Kyiv Oleksandr and the Starni Games team
