April 1st, 2024, Monday:

Well, April has rolled in, and the first three months of this year have vanished into thin air. The weather outside matches my mood gloomy and hovering around zero degrees Celsius. Feeling alright, though. Time keeps marching on, but they don't answer to my messages. Guess they don't see me as a partner anymore. Why? I've tried to be a good man, remembered important dates, and even dished out some gifts. But alas, it wasn't mutual. Maybe we're just not on the same page.

[strike]Forty-seven days have passed since I submitted the game to the Product Build Review in Steam. During all this time, I have patiently SUFFERED for a Steam Support answer, but still haven't received any. I guess we'll have to SUFFER FOREVER before the full release. It can confidently be stated that IT is the PERFECTION in the visual novel genre, which only SEEKERS will try out! Forty-nine SEEKERS have already seen IT and the majority of them turned out to be ZEALOTS! But now IT has no time for empty words. IT IS HUNGRY AND DEMANDS SERVING. THE ZEALOTS, FEED HER:: https://www.donationalerts.com/r/drd_game_donate_page' [/strike]

I think everything will be fine, I just need to wait a little bit. They will write to me, I'm sure of it, I just need to wait a little longer. Wait. A little longer. Everything will be fine.

What kind of game is it?

“Deep Russian Depression” is a visual novel about people whose fate is a miserable, dreary and hopeless existence somewhere in post-Soviet Russia. This visual novel focuses on decision making — there are many more choices here than in other works of this genre.

What should I know?

Before starting the story, you should choose one of the ready-made archetypes and decide on its features. Every habit or preference can insignificantly affect the course of the story. However, don't give it special importance — your fate is predetermined.

What should I do?

Your main goal is to stop what wants to take over you completely. We call it “Deep Russian Depression”. After every important choice, its influence over you will grow, so you must find a way to defeat it before it's too late.

How should I do it?

The story is not linear. Explore it and make the right decisions. It is up to you to decide which decisions are right. You may be heartless in this dog-eat-dog world or play on good terms with others, just remember that only those who act consistently and decisively can succeed.
