Today it's time for a story of how Marcin came up with the idea to make games about the legendary Slovakian Highlander, Janosik! [h3][b]A Page From the Dev Diary #2[/b][/h3] Now that my game is out, I’d like to take a moment to reminisce about how it all started. You already know who Janosik is and what to expect from the game. But let me tell you, in true Drax fashion, [b]“Why is Janosik?[/b]” Janosik is a prominent character in Slavic culture, especially in Poland. I’m sure if you asked any Polish person who Janosik is, 99% would know. There have been tons of TV shows and movies about the legendary “Harnaś” and his adventures, but until a few years ago, he was missing from the gaming world.

Sounds like a perfect upgrade system for a video game, right? And so, I got to work. Bringing Janosik to life in two games now has been a wild ride, and I can only hope it sparks the same sense of wonder I felt when I first heard his story. Thank you for all the support, and remember - if you like my game, please consider sharing it with your friends and leaving a positive review to make sure Janosik 2 reaches as many players as possible!
