The world's first ballet slasher just dropped a playtest on Steam and nobody is talking about it yet. Tsarevna is a dark fantasy action slasher where every single combat move was motion captured from Alyona Kovalyova — a principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet. You play as the last heir to a fallen dynasty fighting through a world of Slavic mythology, ancient gods, and mythical monsters with a magical blade that transforms mid fight into a storm of daggers. The playtest is live on Steam right now — go request access before it fills up. #Tsarevna #BalletSlasher #IndieGame #SteamGame #HiddenGem #DarkFantasy #SlavicMythology #ActionSlasher #PCGaming #SteamPlaytest #NewGame #Gaming #Shorts #IndieGames #HackAndSlash

This looks really good, but if I must nitpick it also looks stiff ***for a video game*** I'm not judging her performance as a ballerina because I'm very much not qualified, but there is a reason movements tend to be at least a bit exagerated. If you don't want to rerecors evetgujg however, might I suggest adding more transition animations? I've noticed a few moment where the character just kinda slides
It would be better if they didnt derail the integrity of the game by putting their main character that is a warrior in a bikiniesque thing that wont even protect her from freezing to death.
I love it!
Dagger (Cloak optional)
Thats a fun idea
Didnt BOUND did this already?
Should have a permadeath mode where she's made of porcelain like those little wind up toys, and if you die she just breaks.
Wow its very pretty
Reminds me of that one movie on prime
It's creative, but I don't really see it being profitable to a large audience
Awesome concept!!
fireee
