| 36 Years Since the Death of Viktor Tsoi | 2026-08-15 | On August 15, 1990, Viktor Tsoi — musician and frontman of the legendary Soviet rock band Kino — died in a car accident. He was only 28 years old. Thirty-six years have passed since then, yet his songs remain as relevant as ever, and Kino's music continues to win over new generations of fans. Every year on this day, concerts and festivals are held across the country in his memory, a reminder that Tsoi lives on as long as his songs are sung."Death is worth living for, and love is worth waiting for" — these lines became one of the defining mottos for generations of Russian rock fans.We deeply value Tsoi's legacy and his immeasurable impact on p |

| Developer Diary: Re-launching Doomer | 2024-10-04 | Greetings, everyone! Doomers Team is back and today, we'd like to share how we breathed new life into the Doomer game and what motivated us to take this step. In recent weeks, we released a major update that marks the beginning of a long journey and ongoing development of the game, which has already become something personal to us. First acquaintance with the project. Our team got acquainted with Doomer already after its release. The game had a huge potential and interest from the Doomer community, but, unfortunately, it did not gain the popularity it deserved and was not evolving. The project piqued our cautious interest at first, but as eac |
| Neon Doomer 85 is your ticket to join the retro doomer movement. | 2024-09-26 | Folks!!!

| Content update №1 is available! Changelog post. | 2024-09-23 | Greetings from the Doomer development team! We apologize for the long absence of any news and game updates since the announcement of our roadmap. As is often the case, everything that could go wrong went wrong.

| Doomer EA Roadmap. 2024-2025 | 2023-11-02 | Hello fellow fans of nostalgia and the Doomer subculture! While it took longer than expected, we are now getting back to you with a Doomer development plan.
