FYI: Soldat means "soldier" in Russian. So not the most creative name, but it didn't matter since this game is awesome.

  The creator is Polish, and it means soldier in Polish too.

    No. The Polish word for soldier is żołnierz. There is a Polish word "sołdat", which is a borrowing of the Russian солдат, and it's mostly used to describe Russian/Soviet soldiers and comes with a negative connotations.
