''Nocturne In Yellow'' is a {{Freeware}} FirstPersonShooter created for the 2015 Indie Game Making Contest. In it, the player assumes the role of Vikenti, a man who finds himself on a strange island full of horrifying monsters. Vikenti soon discovers that the strange creatures are the work of the island's enigmatic master binding the souls of the dead to his thrall and decides to press further, determined to put an end to the horror.
The game can be downloaded [[http://contest.gamedevfort.com/submission/657#.XyysrChKiUl here]].
Not to be confused with ''VideoGame/Nocturne''.
!!''Nocturne In Yellow'' contains examples of the following tropes:
* BladeOnAStick: Vikeni's melee weapon is the spear [[NamedWeapons Koroleva]], which deals more damage than the bow at the obvious cost of a shorter range.
* BottomlessMagazines: Vikeni apparently has an infinite supply of arrows for his bow, but this is {{Averted}} for the bolt-action rifle, where the player does actually need to collect bullets.
* BowAndSwordInAccord: Or bow and spear, in this case, though the player isn't likely to be using the spear very often since they have an infinite supply of arrows.
* BreathWeapon: Zmey Gorynych's three heads attack by spewing fire at the player, as is to be expected from a dragon.
* DarkWorld: The fifth level, the Anti-Cathedral, requires the player to go through portals that lead to a dark, ruined reflection of the Cathedral in order to find keys needed to progress.
* DontFearTheReaper: While Morena isn't particularly friendly and is fought as a boss, she repeatedly warns Vikeni to turn back and seems genuinely reluctant to kill him, letting him off with a warning in [[HopelessBossFight her first boss fight]].
* EldritchLocation:
** Level 6: Clock Tower. It consists of a large number of floating (and sometimes invisible) platforms hovering inside what appears to be an endless mass of crimson clouds.
* FlechetteStorm: Several of Morena's attacks involve her summoning and launching a flurry of flying red daggers.
* FlunkyBoss: Koschei and Morena both summon weak enemies during their respective boss battles, which have a very high chance of dropping mana, health, bullets, and salt crystals when killed.
* FlyingFace: Zmey Gorynych's three heads, as well as a standard enemy type that appears to be the decapitated head of a woman.
* TheGoomba: Zombies. They're slow, only have a melee attack, and have very little health.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Vikeni has blonde hair and is fighting to free the island from the influence of its dark master despite his fear, simply because it is the right thing to do.
* HomingProjectile: A few of the enemies and bosses have these. The player can use the Pallid Mask to get in on the fun as well.
* HopelessBossFight: The first fight with Morena. Thankfully she spares Vikeni at the end, leaving him with a sliver of health and a warning to turn back.
* HouseFey: The boss of the third level is a Slavic house fey called a Domovoi. He mentions working for and protecting the former residents of the house he is in before it was taken over by the master of the island.
* IHaveManyNames: Done by Morena when she reveals her [[TheGrimReaper true identity]].
--> ''I have been Freyja. I have been Thanatos. I have been Maman Brigitte. I have been Anubis, Izanami-No-Mikoto, Erishkigal, Hades, Santa Muerte, Azrael, Daena, Ankou, and more.''
* MultipleHeadCase: Zmey Gorynych has three disembodied heads that [[FlyingFace fly]] around the arena, breathing fire at you.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Domovoi doesn't like the master of the island, but he is a HouseFey who serves whoever owns the house he resides in.
* MythologyGag: Zmey Gorynych's head bear a very close resemblance to ''VideoGame/{{DOOM}}'''s Cacodemons, a nod to the fact that the game uses a modified version of DOOM's engine.
* NamedWeapons: Vikeni's bow is named Vechnost and his spear is Koroleva.
* NoArcInArchery: Vikeni's arrows are completely unaffected by gravity, allowing the player to potentially snipe off enemies from very far away.
* OneHitPolykill: The White Coal artifact allows your arrows to burn through enemies. The game is gracious enough to make it so the first group of enemies encountered after this artifact is obtained are all in a nice orderly line.
* OurLichesAreDifferent: One of the bosses is Koschei the Deathless of Slavic folklore, who is probably the UrExample. His nature as a lich is only alluded to in the game though.
* PlayingWithFire: Domovoi, the boss of the third level, is a HouseFey that lives inside a fireplace and attacks by shooting spreading flames towards you.
* PowerFloats: Koschei and Morena.
* PublicDomainharacter: Koschei the Deathless of Slavic folklore serves as the boss of the fourth level.
* SaltSolution: Your supply of grenades is restored by picking up chunks of salt crystal, implying that the grenades use salt in some way to harm the creatures you fight.
* SkullForAHead: Koschei has an ox's skull atop his shoulders, though whether that's his actual head or just a mask is unclear.
* WhiteMaskOfDoom: The artifact that is acquired by defeating the fifth level's boss is the Pallid Mask, which Vikeni is seen wearing in cutscenes after that point.
* WolfPackBoss: While Zmey Gorynych does attack you by itself, its three floating heads and body all have separate healthbars. As each one is killed, the rest begin to attack more ferociously.
