Rukavychka is a short puzzle game created for the United with Ukraine Game Jam 2022.
The game draws inspiration from the Ukrainian legend of Rukavychka (glove), in which an old man loses a glove that becomes a home for many forest animals of all sizes, from a little mouse to a huge bear. Although the old man in the original story takes back the glove, the game imagines a world where the animals can live safely in the magical home.
The game designers, Agata Nawrot and Sebastian Krzyszkowiak, use the characters of a fox from the Ukrainian story and the Wawel Dragon from Polish legends to lead the animals to safety and unify nations through social cooperation. They hope to create a peaceful future for all, including the forest beings.
The first level of the game involves guiding a little mouse to the magical rukavychka. The designers were inspired by traditional floral patterns for the backgrounds, created using watercolors and ink. They also incorporated colors from the Ukrainian flag, including yellow and blue shades, with green leaves, as well as significant Ukrainian flowers like sunflowers and Vinca species.
User guide
The objective of the game is to find the mouse (with dragon) and the door to Rukavychka (with fox) and then guide the mouse to the door. The mouse can only walk on plants within the fox or the dragon and will stop in front of gaps. Although the dragon and the fox are in two different worlds, the game aims to unite everyone in the end.
