Deep Pixel Melancholy (AppID: 3694190)

A city is lost in a polar night. A snowstorm that never ends.

It's the 2000s. In the far north. Egor works at a research institute, stuck pushing paper in the world’s most soul-crushing job, but those utility bills won't pay themselves. He dreams of the sea, but let's face it — hell will freeze over before he can afford a vacation.

His routine is shattered when he discovers he's stuck in a time loop. Trying to make sense of it, he’s forced to face the real question: Why bother escaping at all? Tomorrow doesn't bode well, and maybe a single carefree day is all he needs to be happy.

THE SILENCE OF STAIRWELLS

 Deep Pixel Melancholy is a visual novel about inner emptiness and the search for meaning. When one bad event follows another endlessly, what does it take to push through, and reignite a spark inside?

MYSTERIOUS PHENOMENA

I drop to the floor and bury my face in my hands.

Something’s happening. Something I don’t understand.

My thoughts buzz in my head like a huge traffic jam until the howling wind drowns them out. The storm carries me off somewhere far away.

Somewhere no one can reach me.
