VLADiK BRUTAL is literally if Half-Life 1 + 2 and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. had a love child.
Even though the game has been developed in Unreal Engine, the game has a nostalgic sourcemod feel to it, from the layout of the menus, to the ambiance, and level design.
I applaud the single dev who poured sweat, blood, and tears into this project.

If this is indeed made by a solo developer, please give him whatever funding he needs to expand this game or create a new one because he is clearly exceptionally skilled at this. This game is actually better than some AA and maybe even some AAA games, it is THAT well made. From the story, to the feel of shooting weapons, the sound, sound design, atmosphere, all of it is just very very nice.

One would think this is some low bar shitpost game.
And you would be right, its filled to the brim with memes, janky as fuck movement and physics.
It also happens to have extremely good gameplay. A single autistic Russian has more power than the entire western AAA industry.
Its also dirt cheap.

One person,with small budget made a game,that outshadows most of modern multimillion games.
Thank you,Vlad for letting us dive into the classics.

Imma be real with you guys.
The first half of the game is amazing, the best game I've played in years, blows every "AAA" out of the water with it's simplistic brainless fun.
The second half is a fucking chore tho...seriously, enemies placed around every single corner just waiting to shoot you in the face, it isn't fun, it isn't fair, it's just trial and error at that point, plus enemies keep spawning all over the place, behind you, and it's really bad towards the end.
Some enemies are way too fast and way too accurate but overrall, worth every damn penny.
Just lower the difficulty after around the stinkworm boss, and its gonna be somewhat playable.

One man had a vision.
Just one passionate man with a very small budget was able to accomplish what countless soulless corpos could not.
Yes, it's a bit junky and rough at the current time (remember it was made by a single person), but the game will obviously be patched. Mind you the game is in a WAY better state than some so called AAA titles on their releases. Optimization is also great, there's even a Steam Deck preset (and overall a big amount of graphics options, including RT BTW).
Please support the developer, he asks absurdly small price for the amount of time and effort he put into it.
Upd. Yup, the quality updates are frequent. W Dev. Take notes AAA-studios.

Dude, you made this game all by yourself, man you nailed a lot of the elements in this fast paced FPS. Kudos to your efforts here, it really shows. You managed to achieve much more than some of the big studios.
Perhaps the shooting elements could be a bit more refined and sometimes all of the enemies rushing you at once could be varied up a bit but that's about all on the combat side.
As for the graphics and the user settings they are first rate with the exception of some textures needing a bit more refining. But once again considering its a sole development, you have made an outstanding contribution to my gaming experience with your fantastic game.
