About
It's been years since humanity enjoyed its last normal day. Everything lost its meaning, when a mysterious chemical compound leaked from one of the nearby laboratories on the edge of town. Today this event is known as, The Leak.
Chaos consumed the streets and crept into the lives of everyone. Over time, the people who had been exposed to chemicals for too long turned into monsters. Fast, ruthless creatures, driven only by instinct. Those who could, have long since fled. The lucky ones hid in bunkers, some built by themselves and others hidden deep in archival plans of the city. The unlucky ones are slowly dying, or worse.
The game puts you in the shoes of the survivor, whose job is to protect the other people who are still trying to lead a normal life in a bunker. A normal night watch turns deadly, when the only working generator malfunctions and turns off in random intervals for 60 seconds.
Features:
2D rotoscoped sprites in 3D environments. Enemies and NPCs are cut out manually frame-by-frame. Everything is made out of about 3000 frames in total.
FPS time-based defense game with First Person Tank Controls.
FMV cutscenes with visual novel elements.
Various enemy types e.g masked mutants or mutated football players.
Use the rifle, revolver and double barrel shotgun to defeat the threat.
Defeat enemies and defend barricades in a small forest area.
Utilize trapdoors and kicking to keep enemies at bay.
Use the sound cues and sensors to pinpoint the enemy’s location.
Original soundtrack composed by Olga Lewińska.

Great work by the dev on this. Tells a cool story with a unique concept.
[b]One Rotten Oath[/b] to ciekawy growy projekt z gatunku horrorów, w której poboczna fabuła i niezbyt porywająca rozgrywka stanowi jedynie dodatek do filmowego developerskiego wątku – lecz nic więcej. Nie jest to tytuł dla każdego to pewnie, duchowym szkieletem stara się upodobnić pod klasyczne produkcje jak Virtua Cop (1997) czy też The House of The Dead (1998), lecz pod względem technicznym nie wygląda to już aż tak różowo, a sama rozgrywka dosłownie nie powala – z całym szacunkiem dla twórcy ale tu już nie te lata, można było zrobić więcej. Jako produkcja free-to-play „może” by przyciągnęła większe grono graczy, lecz jeżeli pojawi się w absurdalnej cenie to nie widzę tu świetlanego sukcesu.

A beautifully crafted experience. This game is exactly as much as it needs to be. Tension, timing, and an unravelling story. Can't say too much without spoiling the experience but the dev absolutely ate with this, and it's worth the few bucks and 60-90 minutes of your time to walk away with a memorable experience. (Also kudos for the added behind the scenes content!)
Good game. A bit short for the price but it was pretty fun.
Not gonna spoil the story but the steady changes that happen as you progress kept me invested. It took a unique spin on the survival horror, which is always nice to see. The game controlled well and was easy to grasp after reading the tutorial. The FMV design threw me off at first, more in a curious way, but this actually fits the overall concept and story. I like each enemy had a brief description as they were introduced.
Very unique and (good) schlocky game with FMV-style enemies🧟♀️. Some cool artistic meta storytelling intermixed with the game's story 👨💻. check out my playthru here: https://youtu.be/OZAfZDEc0d8
A really short but nice game. Worth its price. Played the game at PGA, and promised the creator to give it a go when it will go out. Now I want to have 100% achievements in this game
Picked it up because of the unique aesthetic, ended up being absolutely blown away by where the game went and how it got there. Really cool stuff.
I don't know what I expected when I picked this game up but it wasn't this amount of good content. It's a short game (I pretty much saw all there is to see in about 1.5 hours but I'm also kinda slow on the reading side) but an experience I really enjoyed. Hope to see more from Piotr in the future!
A fun FMV experience that doesn't overstay its welcome! A great foot forward for the dev. Story is the most compelling part by far, can't wait to see the next title!
