If you hadnt come across to any of the reviews in the web (which is, in the words of our Matryoshkan Scientists 99,9% impossibru), heres a small digest to what was going on since the release: "Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love is a wonderful point-and-click adventure that simultaneously feels very nostalgic and yet very much a modern evolution of the genre classics that inspired it. () the journey is filled with fantastic art, lovable characters, varied gameplay, and loads of fun gags, all wrapped up nicely in a story about being the change you want to see. This game comes highly recommended for those looking to have a good laugh and enjoy a very polished adventure at the same time. - Adventure Gamers (4,5/5) Irony Curtain is the funniest game of the year. Its also a great tribute to the PC clickers of old, and a good PnC game in its own right. - WellPlayed (8/10) It is brilliantly written, carefully designed and put together; and most of all, seriously brilliant satire. GO PLAY THIS GAME - Impulse Gamer (5/5) "To be honest, I didnt expect to enjoy Irony Curtain as much as I did, but when I found myself chuckling at even the first lines of the game, I was a goner." - Darkstation (4,5/5) "Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love delightfully intertwines a playful and original concept with an intelligent gameplay, making it one of the most memorably games of the year so far." - All About Casual Game (4,5/5) "(...) Irony Curtain is an enjoyable puzzle game that delivers an outlandish yet compelling narrative and will definitely keep your attention all the way through if youre a fan of off-beat humour and absurd puzzles." - Critical Hit (8/10) Thank you so much for your support all the positive reviews and comments on Steam, the private messages, and social media comments. Glory to Matryoshka! https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/

Irony Curtain's Revolutionary Update #1


Comrades! Thank you for purchasing the Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love! We hope that your journey to the bestest country in the world was as great as babushkas compot! If so, leave as a Steam Review for the glory of Matryoshka! This is the first of a few updates to Irony Curtain. We are aware that Western Spies have planted some bugs here and there, but our special antispy forces are ready to eliminate them once and for all! Thats why were presenting you the official Revolutionary Update with some fixes and polishes, including:

  • fixed a few active area points for better cursor feedback;
  • fixed a blocking bug that could occur when exiting the Floor Run minigame while Evan is still running;
  • fixed sound timing for two final cutscenes;
  • fixed errors and typos in the German version of the game;
  • made The Butcher's line of business more obvious.
As you might have noticed, the premiere build is missing manual save slots. Weve found that there is a possibility that reloading the manual save might fail to call all of the proper actions and changes on a scene, which can cause errors. Since those errors might be game blocking in specific cases, we decided to turn this feature off and only bring it back when we are 300% sure that it works properly. Hopefully, this happens very very soon. Dont forget to spread the love for the bestest country in the world on your social media, using #IronyCurtain hashtag. You can also reach us on Irony Curtains Steam Forum. https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/

Irony Curtain Premiere TODAY with 10% OFF!


Comrades! Were at the finishing line of accomplishing a dream weve had for a very long time publishing our own point and click adventure. Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love is now live! https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/ Throughout the years of avid gaming, sleepless nights filled with solving puzzles and laughing at all the jokes we kept dreaming of bringing something to the table, enriching the genre somehow and now we put Irony Curtain in front of you to gauge how we did. We tried to give you a classical point and click with all the things we loved about the old-school games such as the Monkey Island series, but also do something based on the experiences that shaped us such as the reign of communism in Poland, which affected most of us in one way or another. https://youtu.be/UIMTQysqbOg We joked about Irony Curtain being Deponia meets Papers, please and we hope its true! Its a classic point and click adventure, with a story that will keep you hooked, with fleshed out, relatable characters, full of humour and well-placed easter-eggs, riddles that will keep you puzzled, with a familiar interface, known from other pnc titles all that without the elements that made us grit our teeth in the classics the riddles can be solved by rational thinking (no dream logic!), some of them even have more than one ways they can be solved, it has good music created by Peter McConnel and Arkadiusz Reikowski and will keep you entertained for up to 10 hours! So, were calling on all point-and-click fans we know youre out there! Play Irony Curtain, tell us how we did! We hope that we managed to bring you a wave of nostalgia, laughter and some insight into the absurdities of communism. If you'd like to reach us, please don't hesitate to check out the Steam Forums. See you there! https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/

Our love letter to point and clicks - launching tomorrow!


We love classic point and click adventures. Thats why we decided to write a love letter to classic pncs - in the form of Irony Curtain. Creating a game that channeled our nostalgia and allowed us to include our collective experiences of the communist regime in Poland in a humorous way was a dream come true.
We believe there still are people who love this particular genre as much as we do and maybe that there are more who will be hooked on point and clicks after playing the right game, hence the mixture of nostalgia and improvements we presented in Irony Curtain.
Since the story is one of the most important elements in classic p'n'c games , so we made sure to have a well-written plot and interesting characters - Irony Curtain is about a goofy pen-pusher who gets tangled up in the spy-standoff between two powers. We wanted Evan to be likeable while also making him Guybrushingly funny he's an unwilling troublemaker and works really well juxtaposed with all the other characters, such as the ruthless Leader or Anna - who's smart, capable, mysterious... We wanted strong personalities to match the story and then we peppered it all with puzzles. A lot of puzzles.

And when we say a lot - we mean it. And mini-games too. This is where our HOPA background comes in we're really good in mini-games. Theyre not a classical pnc mechanic, but we know they enrich the gameplay, allow to pace it and also are a good excercise for the brain. Its also a tribute to our legacy we even have one hidden object scene in Irony Curtain as an easter egg! And believe us when we say - theres plenty easter eggs for you to enjoy try to find out if there really are 1951 hidden around Matryoshka. You can also read our previous Steam announcement on the topic here. Thats another point where the past intertwines with the present, bringing in jokes for both the fan of The Lord of the Rings and F.E.A.R alike.

We strived to create a game both familiar but also somehow innovative that's why the interface is exactly as you know it from other games. If youre a pnc player, youll know your way around from the getgo the inventory, the icons telling you what kind of an action is available, etc.
As both players and creators we know that being frustrated is not fun the game is supposed to be a challenge (like in the old, golden days) but at the same time we wanted the solutions to be more reasonable than use chickend and bucket to make a helicopter. The point is to get the satisfaction of solving a riddle using your brain, not a walkthrough. The puzzles in Irony Curtain can be ambigous, challenging but never absurd (and some of them can even be solved in multiple ways). The only absurdity youll encounter is the historical absurds that we really lived through. Yes, bribing people was normal. Yes, TP was a precious commodity and we stood in unending queues. But we hope that thanks to this youll not only get some mind excercise but also will learn about the oddities we had to live through back in the day.
When we pitched the game as Deponia meets Papers, please we were hoping to add value to the genre we loved talking about topics we cared about. And we believe we did. We hope we brought to the table all the things classical pncs represent: humour, wit, riddles and story thatll draw you for long hours (up to 10 ) so that the fans of classical point and click adventures will feel at home with Irony Curtain and those who are new to the genre will get hooked! Irony Curtain premieres on the 16/05 https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/

Composer Peter McConnell joins works on Irony Curtain Score


Agents! Today we have a top secret, exciting message from our on headquarters! When we first announced Irony Curtain, we promised no elevator music! Thats why we have established a Matryoshkan collaboration with an extremely esteemed, experienced agent: Peter McConnell. All fans of classic point and clicks will recognize that name such hits as the Grim Fandango or Monkey Island series would not be complete without the splendid soundtracks that enhanced the adventures of the wacky, weird heroes. The enormously successful composer collaborated with Arkadiusz Reikowski - best known for his work on Layers of Fear, Kholat and AMs My Brother Rabbit - on the OST to Irony Curtain, which resulted in an larger-than-life Original Soundtrack. Peter created the Main Theme, which inspired Arkadiusz's further work on the OST - the effect of their endavors is available on Soundcloud and Bandcamp as we speak! Irony Curtain from Matryoshka with Love is the satirical, classic pnc adventure about espionage and a bizarre, communist Matryoshka, full of no-nonsense riddles, politically incorrect jokes and vivid, intense characters youll be dying to meet.

Creating dialogues in Irony Curtain


Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love is a game full of different characters talking to each other. In fact, some puzzles can be solved only by choosing the right dialogue option. Thats why in todays episode of Behind the Irony Curtain wed like to tell you more about the process of creating dialogues in our game. Writing dialogues is just the beginning of the process. There are over 5471 lines of text in Irony Curtain and every one of them needs to be properly inserted into the game, to make sure all characters say exactly what Game Designer wants, in the exact time and place.
Heres how it looks in Irony Curtain: 1. Every game character usually has more than one dialogue line. One of the ways to operate it is to use logical TRUE/FALSE flags. These flags helps us determine the state of knowledge of a specific character or whether an event of which the character speaks has already taken place. 2. Each dialogue is built in the editor as a separate tree consisting of successive nodes connected with each other by lines defining the order in which the dialogue of the character appears. 3. To be honest, writing dialogues is just filling the form fields. It looks more or less like this:

  • Create a new dialogue in the editor and give it a name. Then inform Level Designer about the circumstances in which it should be launched (eg. when Evans checks on the Prisoner);
  • Create the first Node (a red dot on the editor screen) and enter the necessary information (into the form on the right side of the screen):
    [olist]
  • Who is talking
  • The Dialogue text (or several dialogues if they should be drawn)
  • (Optional) The Dialogue text when repeating the talk
  • (Optional) If the dialogue happens not on the location but on zoom whose head and on which side should it be displayed
  • (Optional) Text display time (its useful when testing the game without recorded Voice Overs which determine the text display time in the finished game)
  • Where the text should appear on the screen (e.g. over the character or over the radio speaker)
  • (Optional) Actions to be made before or after the dialogue (e.g. acquiring an item or activating a logic flag character X already knows about Y") [/olist]
  • Create another dialogue node and fill it in
  • Connect the first node with the second one
  • Rinse & Repeat ;)
4. After creating the entire tree for all the dialogues we generate so-called keys. Keys consist of the location number, dialogue name, text position in the tree and the first letter specifying the character.
5. Thanks to this we can assign a specific Key to a Node, and not just the text. All texts with Keys can be saved to a shared Excel sheet with different languages. As a result, the different language versions of the game have the appropriate dialogues.
That is all in this episode of Behind the Irony Curtain. We hope you enjoyed it and don't forget to add Irony Curtain to wishlist! https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love

The making of stop-motion animation in Irony Curtain


Comrades! Today wed like to introduce you to our process of making a stop-motion animation. In one of the previous updates, weve explained what stop-motion animation is and why are we using it in our game. This is how we prepare each asset: 1. The whole process starts with the Game Designer. They prepare a documentation with all animations needed for the specific part of the game. There are several types of animations for example: idle animation, talking, specific animation for beginning or end of the conversation and custom animation.
2. Then the animator prepares everything that was requested in the specification in an animation software (we use Toon Boom Harmony for that). First comes the rough sketch, then the more detailed lineart and some colors and shadows at the end.


3. When the animation is ready, the animator exports each frame as a separate file. Our animations have usually 80 frames on average, so its a lot of files to export! Those files are put into our inhouse tool that does all the magic cropps them, sets the frames size and creates a file that manages animating all the cropped images. 4. Now its time for the Level Designer. They use the graph you see below (a kind of a state diagram) to control which animation should be used in which state (e.g., idle or end of the conversation) by referencing the files generated during step 3.
And that's all! Don't forget to add Irony Curtain to wishlist to stay updated! https://store.steampowered.com/app/866190/Irony_Curtain_From_Matryoshka_with_Love/

Easter Eggs in Irony Curtain


Comrades! Before we announce some more details about the Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love (which you can still add to wishlist by the way), we have something very special for classic adventure games fans! Although Matryoshkans love potatoes the most, theres also one more thing close to our hearts. Its eggs. Easter eggs to be exact. Irony Curtain is set in the 50s, but we did our best to spice it up a little with pop culture references from modern movies, comics, games and classic point & clicks. Its kind of mandatory thing when creating the classic adventure game. Overall, we keep the balance between the story and the references, and there are places you will have a hard time finding them, but sometimes we literally go crazy with Easter eggs in some locations. Just look at the screenshot below and try to find all the references weve hidden there. Theres also a hint under spoiler below:
[spoiler]ANSWERS: 1. key in the shape of Sauron's Eye 2. shape of the island from Monkey Island 3. sketch of a key game from Machinarium 4. crow from Enigmatis 2 5. Pirates of the Carribean key 6. Konami Code [/spoiler] The medals are more monothematic because they are all inspired by the works of one studio. Can you guess what every one of them refers to?

The creative process behind creating the locations in Irony Curtain


This time wed like to acquaint you with the creative process that goes into creating the scenes in the game. Here, for example, we have one of the first locations in the game the conference Evan attends in order to present a speech on Matryoshka. If you'd like to support the game, don't forget to add Irony Curtain to wishlist!
1. First off, we begin with a very rough concept art - mapping out the placement of active elements of the scene (the interactive parts that will contain moving objects), and on this, we build the gameplay (with placeholder dialogues and text and placeholder screens instead of minigames). This is usually the fastest part of the process. If we dont like it or something doesnt play out quite as well, we re-do parts of it until everything fits the way we want it to. PS. Drawing each location out by hand means, that we have concept arts for each and every location in the game! Would you like to see them as bonus material? 2. After the sketch is completed we create a mood board, which sets the color schemes for all locations (we wanted it to not only be cohesive throughout the whole game but also reflect the passing of time morning, afternoon, evening, etc). This is possible thanks to the macrolocation system we have once you go through a set of locations you will not return to them again, so we can give you this sense of passing time.
3. Based on the concept we then proceed to fill in the details this leads us to a complete lineart. A lineart is (just like the name suggests) a picture that has only the outlines, usually in black. If you havent seen one, it resembles a page taken out of a childs coloring book.
4. When were happy with the result we create a color palette from the mood board and roughly place them on the lineart. At this stage, we check out if everything works together if the scene conveys what we wanted to say and if its also pleasant for the eye.
5. Then come the flat colors literally filling in the line art with flat colors. Just one color layer, no shadows, no color blending. You could think of it as colorful paper cutouts placed on the lineart.
6. The second-to-last step is creating all the shading, light reflections, and all small details that will make-or-break the picture, bringing it to life and helping us tell a story even before theres a single word spoken or even before we introduce any of the main characters. 7. Then, of course, with games comes the step of creating the animations, different states of interactive elements (etc. closed/open doors), etc. But thats a different part of this tale. So, did you enjoy this little tour? Would you like to see more from Irony Curtain?

Why we've changed the art style of Irony Curtain?


Comrades! Some time ago we showed you how Irony Curtain looked in the early prototype phase and how it looks like now. Today wed like to talk a little bit more about the reasons behind the change and the whole creative process. Its no doubt that Irony Curtain came a long way from the times when it was just a prototype called simply Matryoshka. There are three main reasons why weve decided to simplify the art style:

1. The previous style looked great but it didnt play well


The before screenshots weve shown are undoubtedly the ones that look brilliant detailed backgrounds, vibrant colours and original characters. And thats the whole point. It looked awesome on static graphics but the puzzles and navigating through the level seemed frustrating just BECAUSE of all those things. When everything is so detailed every object fights for your attention so it feels like pixel hunting all the time. It is crucial for us to have the best possible gameplay without any frustrations and unfortunately, the previous style caused a lot of it. One of Irony Curtain's minigames: the very detailed BEFORE (left) version and simpler AFTER (right) version

2. Weve changed the way we animate characters


The characters in the early prototype we've were made with a technique called cutout animation, a form of stop-motion animation that uses flat objects (think about the paper theatre that youve probably played as a child) . Right now Evan and other characters from the game are animated in a traditional stop-motion way that requires simpler textures on the models. And simpler textures mean simpler art style everywhere in order to keep the project consistent. BEFORE:
AFTER:

3. We want the art style to be a part of how we tell the story


When Evan first arrives at the Leaders Heart Hotel, hes overwhelmed by its monumentality and splendor. The location should reflect that, so weve decided to add a lot of empty space and make the character look really small in comparison to the building. There are locations in the game that didnt change that much though (e.g., Evans bathroom in the hotel room), weve only adjusted them to the current style of the game. BEFORE:
AFTER:
In the next episode of Behind Irony Curtain, well show you the creative process behind creating the locations in Irony Curtain. Stay tuned!

The past and present of Irony Curtain + Steam contest!


Dear Comrades! We'd like to show you the past and present of our upcoming point and click game Irony Curtain: From Matryoshka with Love! Below you'll have the opportunity to witness how much has changed and how far we have come from the original idea that we presented at Polish festivals a while ago.
What you see before you is the prototype of Irony Curtain, which back then was called simply 'Matryoshka'. It was always our dream to make a game based on our own experiences, but also tackling the topic with humor and rowdy resistance. And since we love classic point and clicks, there wasn't much of an option but to make one! The pictures you see is from one of the locations which remained almost the same through the evolution of the game - the 'Leader's Heart' hotel lobby, from the beginning of the game.


What's your opinion on these? Which verision do you like most? Let us know in the comments below and don't forget to Add Irony Curtain to your wishlist! We're incoming in 2019!

IRONY CURTAIN CONTEST - WIN 3 ARTIFEX MUNDI GAMES

Pamela Cavendish is back on a new adventure. A few months after solving the case of Minotaur, the famous anthropologist receives a surprise letter from Sweden. Her former colleague from the university - Peter - who studied unusual traces of Norse gods Hod and Loki in the local mine is missing. The only surviving member of the expedition to emerge from the shaft went mad from the experience. What happened in the depths of the mine? What unspeakable secret was discovered by Peter and what does it have to do with Norse gods? Team up with Pamela to solve the case! Endless Fables 2: Frozen Path will launch on 16 November 2017

Important notice:


Starting with Endless Fables 2 we will be adjusting the prices of our games and the launch discount on Steam. Please allow us to explain why: for the last 2 years we’ve been working hard to be in a position to deliver you a new adventure every 3 weeks. This intense development comes at an increased cost of each project and the current market situation also demands adequate investments in the process. All this in order to make the games as best as possible. We would like to continue to design these fantastic worlds for you, hence the rather difficult decision to adjust the prices. We do hope that you will stay with us and remain the continuous source of inspiration in our work! http://store.steampowered.com/app/699780/Endless_Fables_2_Frozen_Path/
