Hello! My name is Yakov Butuzov, and I am an indie game developer. I would like to present to you a game that I have been working on - Loretta. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1592540/Loretta/ [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37392446/3f08723fd421824743446b5aaafaab10ace4c97a.png[/img] Loretta is a psychological thriller that would make the player an accessory to the heroine’s crimes and would lead her through a self-crafted nightmare. This story is about a woman, dealing with betrayal, her husband’s infidelity, relationships problems and difficult social situation of the 1940s.

Loretta is a story-driven adventure game in which gameplay focuses on choosing phrases in dialogue, interacting with objects, and making decisions: planning the murder and getting rid of the evidence. Small teaser-trailer: https://youtu.be/ReWu9hMH1Es I released my previous game DOM RUSALOK without a publisher, and got positive feedback from both journalists and players. Also, it gave me an opportunity to gather a small, but loyal audience. Despite having studied epidemiology, I soon realized that I wish to dedicate my life to game development. Thank you in advance! Sincerely, Yakov Butuzov
