A small sleepy town somewhere in the USA. A man named Dominic is an ordinary road construction worker, happy with life just the way it is. On a beautiful summer day everything changes. He gets fired.

But Dominic is no quitter. Instead of getting into depression and drowning his problems into alcohol, he starts fighting to get his beloved job back. With a little help from his friends, Dom gets into fantastic adventures filled with drama and action.

Screenshots:







There is no certain release date yet.

Progress:
The game can roughly be divided into 3 parts. The first one is almost complete. If things go well, I might release a demo soon.

I posted the bar bg on the CL a while ago.

Great work man, your color transitions are perfect and consistent, and I don't even see a dithering pattern. I wish I could draw like this.

Looks great, and I like the idea of starting out an adventure with the relatively normal premise of a guy trying to get his job back.

I like your style a lot! Those screenshots look very promising and I'm curious to learn more about the story.

This looks really nice.

I thought that too when I saw it :D

I love your art style though, it looks amazing. I'm interested to hear more about the story.

A small update: I'm working on the game slowly but steadily. I still hope to get a playable demo out soon enough.
