Desperate Days
CLICK HERE TO TRY THE FREE VERSION
The city is under siege. The snow is falling. And you have to survive.
Set in a modern city inspired by the conflicts of Eastern and Southern Europe, Desperate Days throws you into a gritty, open-world struggle. You are responsible for keeping yourself and your household alive in the dead of winter, scavenging for food in dumpsters and navigating a society on the brink of collapse.
But even in desperate times, life goes on. You have the freedom to choose who is worthy of your time, your help, and your appetite.
Survive & Thrive:
- Scavenge & Loot: Break into buildings, climb obstacles, and scour the snow-covered streets for resources.
- Master the City: Play poker, fight for dominance, wrestle opponents, or use persuasion to get what you need.
- Card Collection: Build your deck and collect cards as you explore.
A Unique Visual Experience: Explore a world rendered in charming Pixel Art, with intimate scenes transitioning into full 3D. While the setting is serious, the game offers a light-hearted, semi-short experience focused on worthwhile build-ups and satisfying payoffs. With over 100+ animations and multiple endings based on your focus, how you survive the siege is up to you.

So, for some reason I can't click my save when trying to load my game on the front menu. I can click the "New Save" button and that works, but clicking the save I want to load does nothing. Any ideas?
Might have to do with the resolution / ratio, this is an old game, can you try running it on windowed mode, or change the resolution of your desktop, etc...?
I thought that may have been the case honestly. I run a Wide screem curved monitor, and my next thought was to make it run on my 1080p side monitor. How do I run it in Windowed mode? I don't see an option anywhere. Also, I can't seem to click any of the buttons for the keypads even after I found a code. Is that the same problem?
Method 1: The "Alt + Enter" Shortcut (Try This First)
Most Unity games built for Windows support a universal toggle.
How to do it: Launch the game, wait for it to load, and press Alt + Enter.
Result: This usually snaps the game instantly from fullscreen to windowed mode. Pressing it again will revert it.
Method 2: Force Windowed Mode via Shortcut
If the keyboard shortcut doesn't work, you can modify the game's shortcut to tell the engine to start in windowed mode before it even launches.
Right-click the game's shortcut (e.g., on your Desktop) and select Properties.
Note: If you don't have a shortcut, right-click the game's .exe file, choose "Create Shortcut," and use that.
Locate the Target field. You will see the path to the game file ending in .exe".
Add a space after the quote, and then type:
-window-mode windowed
Example Target: "C:\Games\MyGame\Game.exe" -window-mode windowed
Click Apply and then OK.
Run the game using this specific shortcut.
Optional Flags:
If you want a specific size, you can add width and height commands:
-window-mode windowed -screen-width 1280 -screen-height 720
How in the hell you get the perk luded mind or something like that? And why you make impossible to beat that gang with Penny?
Just for people that got stuck with this questions:
- To beat Cody gang with Penny you need to got luck every time you go fight them (i believe);
- To get luded mind perk you need to help your friend in the apartment, fight the Cody gang in the front door (You will need help from Penny to do that);
I wish I knew how to save, i cant click the save button
go to sleep

I do, but i cant click the save button.
