Projects

1.5 years of side-project development

A multiplayer text RPG delivered as a Telegram bot: a bogatyr travelling across Russian lands and fighting Koschei, Zmey Gorynych and Nightingale the Robber. My last large project written entirely by hand, without AI.

• Over 1000 hours of work, with time tracking.
• More than 500 sign-ups on the first day.
• Day-one retention at 20%, day-30 at 5%; a peak of more than 200 players online at once.
• Story campaign, turn-based combat, PvP arena, leveling, inventory and a random item generator.
• In-game shop with real payments, referral system, daily rewards, and an HTTP admin panel with Telegram-based sign-in.
• Three projects in one repository: a .NET bot, a game-data editor and a statistics viewer, both with their own GUI (Avalonia UI, MVVM).
