Eu sou uma das pessoas que joguei a demo, e me apaxonei naquele mesmo momento e é muito bom ver que hoje o jogo esta completo mesmo não tendo condiçoes de comprar e poder contribuir. mais mesmo assim espero um dia poder jogar essa obra-prima
(Played the demo) Lenin the Lion is a story about mental illness, and this theme subtly influences the game in a lovely way. The environments are very immersive and fun to explore, and all the characters feel a bit distant as they struggle in their own worlds. The demo's story was short and sweet, and I look forward to what the full version will include, as the demo feels like only a fraction of a much grander narrative.
There's just one concern I had, and it's going to make me sound like *that* person, so I apologize if anyone if provoked by this.
The Bipolar Woods feels like it is wrongly evoking the name of bipolar disorder. I feel like it more closely resembles the personality disorder Borderline, as the plants are convinced out of their moods and are transformed by them. At the same time, the main antagonist of the area follows the traits of Borderline, as he quickly comes to distrust Lenin and also pushes everyone away from him due to guilt and traps everyone in their homes because of a fear of the uncontrollable.
That's just my two cents. Maybe there is already an area based on this concept in production. Please let me know.
The gameplay was reminiscent of RPG Maker classics with a twist including a choice-based combat with the boss and a minigame to create the umbrella. I also enjoyed the interactions with the characters in the village. Again, the demo ended with a feeling the future game is much grander, and I look forward to what the final version has in store. I've always enjoyed games that talk about mental health, and it's a personal interest of mine, as you can see. Looking forward to more Lenin!
The game will be on Mac, but not at the first day of the release. But asap I’ll upload the Mac version since I don’t want anyone without playing it because of their operational system. And sorry beforehand for not being able of releasing the Mac version in the same day at the Windows release, but as I develop the game all by myself I need a little more time to do additional stuff like that. Thanks for understanding.
The song name is “Empatia”, by niLL. The song is yet to be released, probably alongside the game, but it depends of the singer (it’s an original song so it has its own releasing process).
Heya, I'd love to try out this demo but I can't seem to get it to open. I'm on a Mac, and when I try to open the html file on Firefox I just get a black screen that says "Reference Error, process is not defined"
Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: I tested out the Portuguese and Spanish demos and they both work fine for me, so there might be something wrong with the English demo, if that helps.
Hey, thanks for letting me know it. I’ll try to upload a official demo version for MAC soon (before the official release of the game). I’ll let you know when I do it! See you soon :)
Are you downloading it and trying to extract using a zip/rar software? Like winrar, per example.
Besides, take a look at the download. If it’s taking just a few seconds and its size is lesser than the one indicated at the download page, there’s a problem when downloading it.
I did a quick research and it may be your anti virus software, since I can download it on different PC’s and it’s working just fine. Take a loot at it too.
I really liked this demo and totally can't wait until the full release! But i did have trouble getting past the second boss paw at the end boss battle:
Jogo sensacional, que ideia incrível, ambientação apaixonante, historia bem trabalhada e com ótimas metáforas, alem da trilha sonora bem feita. Parabéns, vocês vão longe!!
All I can say is... Wow, ABSOLUTELY WOW. It sucks that this game is still in a demo phase because holy damn. People who thought that Undertale was good. This game. Blows it out of the water.
there're some issues when the game is being exported for MAC or Linux in Windows and I can't solve them yet. So I'll need more time to understand what's happening before release it for MAC and Linux!
This is so darn beautiful. I loved every second of it! The off-the-wall characters, the colourful backgrounds, the heartfelt moments. Everything works so well, and I was genuinely sad when I hit the end of the demo.
I really hope you hit your funding total for this, because I'd be all over the full game! Even if you don't reach your target I certainly hope you still endeavour to complete this game because you guys deserve the world! Keep up the amazing work =)

Amazing game. Loved the messages and it hits home hard, as I as well suffer from depression,anxiety, ptsd and some physical conditions. Will this be free or have a cost? Not that would matter, ad I'd pay. I love it. And when is the expected release date?

This hits home quite a bit. Not sure if this was inspired by one shot but, I got a big vibe from it. It's sort of like that but, unique and, great in it's own way. I really can't wait for the full game. I'm just getting started in the story and, it's deep!
Hey, Ratithias, I saw mostly all of your LP's, and now there's a crowdfunding campaign for the project! If you liked it, please, consider back the game on Catarse! Here it's: https://www.catarse.me/lenin_the_lion. Thanks a lot for your support!
I appreciate you watching my LP's and, very grateful you made this game. I'm sure you can tell I connected with Lenin on a personal level as, i'm sure most people have with him! I wish I could donate right now to crowdfund this! Sadly I don't have the funds to back this at the moment. I have been doing my part the best I can to promote the crowdfunding the best I can! Retweeting and, posting about crowdfunding on social media. If finances change i'll definatly back this!

This is a game that tackles some very harsh and real things that people suffer from everyday, it shows that games are one of, if not the best form of media to learn from or share an idea.
Visuals wise this game is quite impressive, it's colorful and vibrant, the art is fantastic and the accompanying music is beautiful.
What stands out with this game however is its story, a story many can relate to including myself. A story about someone who's different, who goes against the norm though through no choice of their own, and is abused and ridiculed by those around them. It's a sad story about dealing with these harsh things, and discovering that being unique isn't something to be ashamed of but something to be proud of.
Thank you for making this game, it's charming, clever and it delivers a message that truly means something.
I've started my let's play series of the demo and I hope you don't mind if I share it here.

This game is absolutely charming, and the soundtrack is lovely as well. It's very mellow and quite peaceful. I still experience some lag at the beginning town, though. Even after upgrading the drivers and whatnot, there's a tad bit of lag. It's not too gameplay breaking, though. Overall, I'm looking forward to the full release.
Oh, I appreciated that, MaliceDiary! I really don't know what the problem is in the matter of lag, since some people who played didn't seem to have problems. But I'm trying to find solutions to this! If I find a way to fix it, I'll update the demo version for a possible smoothly experience. :)

i little help please I'm having a little problem extracting the game files it always says file not found

Besides, take a look at the download. If it’s taking just a few seconds and its size is lesser than the one indicated at the download page, there’s a problem when downloading it.
If the error persists let me know.
Nope, it is still not working even I downloaded correctly, correct file size but "file not found" again :|
I did a quick research and it may be your anti virus software, since I can download it on different PC’s and it’s working just fine. Take a loot at it too.
Crap I forgot about that, thank you it really works
hey bro i can translate the game to ptbr for free, the game is awsome in all the ways i realy love the game, thank you for do this game
is he russian?
Looks super cool! Wish it was easier to play on Mac, but it's on my Steam wishlist, and I'm looking forward to the full game.
I absolutely adore this game, the art style, the message, the gameplay, the characters- the list goes on.. Very excited for the full version
I really liked this demo and totally can't wait until the full release! But i did have trouble getting past the second boss paw at the end boss battle:
What kind of trouble? Have you finished the demo or did you find a bug that prevented you to do it?
During the boss battle at the end, i couldn't get Lenin to move fast enough by pressing Z or Enter, the paw kept catching me.
Either it was the game being slow or my settings in my recording device.
Jogo sensacional, que ideia incrível, ambientação apaixonante, historia bem trabalhada e com ótimas metáforas, alem da trilha sonora bem feita. Parabéns, vocês vão longe!!
Played this back when the first demos came out and I loved it. Can't wait for it to come out!
I really liking this game, I would buy it on Steam but it's still on demo and it's not available yet
All I can say is... Wow, ABSOLUTELY WOW. It sucks that this game is still in a demo phase because holy damn. People who thought that Undertale was good. This game. Blows it out of the water.
Fanbase is... But what Im saying is. this game surpasses it in terms of the feels. Feels great man.
Hello. My name is Mel. I was wondering if I could translate your game into Spanish once it's complete. If you don't mind, of course. <3
Game looks nice.
Since the game seems to be made with RPG Maker MV why no make a build for Mac & Linux so everyone can play?
there're some issues when the game is being exported for MAC or Linux in Windows and I can't solve them yet. So I'll need more time to understand what's happening before release it for MAC and Linux!
I see, thank you for the reply

Such a wonderful little game. Some of the messages are really on-the-nose and others are very subtle which I appreciate.

Hey, hello!
Songs in the game are mostly original songs, except for "The Builder", that's a song in public domain.
But you can listen the title menu music and Lenin's theme on SoundCloud! Thanks!
