Desperate Days
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Desperate Days
Desperate Days - is an adult game which is set in a modern city which is currently under siege .
You are thrown in to a somewhat depressing (open) world setting, in which you will have to scavenge for food in dumpsters under the winter snow, so you and your mother may live another day.
You will have the freedom to choose who to spend time with, and the luxury to invest in any of the following activities:
- Scavenge \ Loot
- Climb \ Break into places
- Play Poker
- Fight
- Complete Quests
- Wrestle
- Persuade
- Collect Cards
Desperate times lead to desperate situations
Help the many different characters in this world with their own desperate situations. You have the freedom to choose which one of them is more worthy of your time and appetite.
Even though it might seem to take itself too seriously, it's a semi-short and light-hearted game, with a lot of sexual content, and hopefully, long & worthwhile build-ups.
Noteworthy Points
- The game contains more than 100 animations
- The world is in pixel art, while the scenes are in 3D.
- The game features multiple endings which depend on what the player sets its focus on.
- It's inspired by eastern & southern Europe and it's modern time conflicts.
Common Issues you might encounter
Linux video issues - scenes are visible if you use latest wine GE (Wine-GE-Proton7-22) with windows build
Things not being clicked / visible - Change your desktop resolution and run the game again
Saves removing stuff? - Note that save files happen exactly when you go to sleep, and by chance going to sleep clears a few temporary perks. It also dismisses all of your party members.

If you cant load your save try turning your pc resolution all the way down.
Hey, can anyone tell where I can find this Sabina???
I have the newest version but the saves are still bugged
I turned my resolution all the way down and that worked.
probably the hottest game i ever played, thanks!!
Hey guys, I've played this one in the past and i'm giving it another go now. However, I'm having MAJOR issues with how poorly the game's runnig, like crazy low fps. Anyone has a clue about that? Anyone with a similar problem?
What platform? The game is very lightweight... More details about your setup may make things clearer
probably is and I've just missed it but is there a walkthrough
How do you meet Rebecca? Also is there a walkthrough for this game?
this is you best game, male protagonist, has a variety of choices for women. Hope to see more games like this.
This is your best game! You managed to build a world where I got lost for days and still like to wonder after I've finished it! I hope you will use this game's engine to build another one like it in the future! I also loved playing a male protagonist! Great job!
I cant find the spy location on map, where it is?
In the abandoned restaurant at the bottom left of the "Park" map
how to go to park map, its my first game of this type🫨
how to go to park map, its my first game of this type🫨
Will an android version be possible in the future?
Due to the complexity of this game's controls, I had chose to avoid that. Have you played the other games tho? they do support android
Actually yes, Housewife and Refuge Roadtrip are my favourites, and I would have liked to be able to play and support you with this one too.
I look forward to your next game

¿Hola cómo estás? Soy un comprador frecuente de sus juegos. La verdad es que me encanta la mecánica y el estilo artístico que lleva. Me gustaría que pudieras hacer un juego con más historia o con más caminos por recorrer pero con la misma temática impresionante de tu trabajo.
Lo siento mi ingles es que mi idioma es el español y uso el traductor de google jeje
tus mejores juegos son
Dias Desesperados - como la mejor de todas aunque me hubiera gustado mas imagenes con la madre
Ama de casa - Muy bien, aunque todavía no he avanzado mucho.
Refugio Road trip - el primero de todos con quien te conocí y me encantó muy mal no puedo pasar el punto final para que el hijo y la madre tengan sexo
RecienDivorciados - y este ultimo muy bueno solo que lo vi con poco contenido
Realmente amo tus juegos y los compro todos para apoyarte porque me gustaría que siguieras creando más pero por favor si puedes hacer un juego con más historia te lo agradecería mucho
bro no one knows wtf you are talking about, fucking learn english

My homie just a suggestion.. instead of selling games like this u must start Patreon that's how u'll get paid even more. There's no point of even trying this game if u hide out the sexual content
Nah, trust me it's the other way around
look at That Dude who made Summertime saga he makes 70k a month ur games got potential too
Yeah, but that's not the same type o game nor I have any intention to be obliged to a patron page.
Can't wait for new games
so when will a new game come out? :) 9.9
Why did I get Kim' poker card x0 instead of 1 ? Now I cannot proceed any further in her quest.
Walkthrough pdf please
I really want to play this game but it's difficult for me.
A walkthrough pdf would definitely help me.
Had to learn poker because of this and whaddayoknow it's actually a cool game
Huh! What a funny surprise

Can i have your mail id please? Because, i would like to talk to you more about this game and other projects
So I'm trying to be nice with this game but I have reached the point where I am confused and frustrated and and really hate this. I have found 20 lockpicks, I have had 2 in inventory, I have had one, I have both mother's dialogue and still for the life of me I cannot unlock the gate near the post office, I can get inside but that doesn't seem to trigger dialogue with the mom. Also the poker game is miserable, she gets like 18 lives while I have 5? I really do wanna like this game but this is ridiculous.
It doen't trigger dialog and the poker can be pain in the ass sometimes but you can do it if i did it twice :)
It may be a bug in which it only updates the gate after you re-enter the scene... As for the poker, the tooltip when you hover on the button shows what's missing, what does it say?
pro tip reading helps alot in the game
Great game, I think most people wanted a game with a female MC, but this one was an amazing game. Maybe you can make another game like Housewife (with a Female Mc)? But exploring and focusing more on the son (cuz that was what most of us, myself included, liked) How the mother starts seeing his son in a different way, how they feel more comfortable with each other and maybe more (A LOT) scenes. Because as in a lot of games with this style, the NTR topic is a double edged sword, I remember that there was a game about incest and stuff like that, but in a update, the author introduced "sharing", and a lot of people where complaining about this in the game (even when you were able to dodge this route) but in fact, people had a point, because the route was too forced and strange when you try it. Anyways, keep going I love all yours games!!!!
And I think you are the first one to start this very elaborate genre of games
Thank you, I too like the female MC idea. The next game would be like that.
Any way to make the card game easier? Can never seem to beat it
Are you talking about Poker? Just see a video on YouTube of how to play poker five cards (That helped me)
Love your games man, thanks for creating it. How often can we expect new games ?
Most kind, can't tell, I never release them "unfinished" (even tho some may argue about this point) So it takes alittle more time. Not long tho, since these games are not too robust.
Where is the location of spy?
The park level, bottom left at the toilet of the restaurant.
Awesome game again dude. I'd recommend having a point and click type of game since it's rather complicated to have a keyboard and mouse combo. And maybe have a game where it's updated periodically like starting a subscribestar and working at your own typo or creating a larger game with an extreme amount of content. Personally, wouldn't mind waiting for a huge game even if it takes half a year.
Most kind, I'm not in to that type of relationship. Those games also usually get abandoned...
Honestly, you're right. I've seen dozens of games abandoned this year. I think most fans love your games for the fact that they're completed! But hey, I'd genuinely be happy with games that are longer even if it takes much more time to develop them.
Awesome game man, love your type of games, really unique with great storys. Good job man! Would love to see more MMF stuff. Was hoping to being able to invite the friend and sharing mom with him or sharing her with codys gang. I understand if thats not your thing but would be awesome to see. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Is there anything to help with the wrestle mini game? I get overpowered no matter what and even an auto key presser isn't enough to win.
Do you press "space"?
