This game looks like Nickelodeon with a machine gun.
The plot of Dead End Job is ghost busters, more or less; you assume the role of Hector Plasm, a worker at Ghoul-B-Gone, the #1 expert in paranormal pest control. You shoot ghosts with an array of weapons, then suck them up using your vacuum pack, as every ghost you catch, citizen rescued, and job completed is added to the client’s bill. You gotta make that money and take out the ghosts.
The art style is a lot of fun and I'll bet the humor skews immature as hell.
Take a look at the trailer and official announcement below:
EDINBURGH, Scotland - October 16th 2017 – Independent game developer Ant Workshop is delighted to announce their new game, Dead End Job, is coming to Nintendo Switch in 2018!
Talking about bringing Dead End Job to Nintendo Switch, Ant Workshop’s Founder Anthony Gowland said, “Ever since I first saw the Switch announcement I wanted to get Dead End Job on the platform as the crazy cartoon visuals and gameplay felt like a perfect fit, and after the fantastic reception we’ve had from Switch players with Binaries it would be silly of us not to! I can’t wait to see someone blasting ghosts and earning as much money as they can for The Man while on their daily commute , how many other cartoon shooters can you think of with that ironic symbolism?”
Also releasing on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Dead End Job merges the frantic, addictive, highly replayable game-play of a proceedurally generated twin-stick shooter with the iconic look of a 90s cartoon.
