After a deal with the devil goes horribly wrong you must quest to find your way to hell to confront the beast and rescue your love! Your quest will take you from the city, into space and back, into a gigantic termite mound and even to the pub. Quite the adventure for one small pug.

Are these in game graphics? I see no characters, no GUIs, no cursors...
I wanted to post the backgrounds without clutter but you're right I shouldve posted in game screens. I'll replace them with in game screens within a day or two.
Thanks for the interest everyone!

*hopes for some weird dialoge involving how the octopus found a new meaning in life with needlepoint accuracy inksquirting* ;-D
This looks really creative, nice work!
Thanks guys, i'll try not to disapoint.
remade the grub room, made it a bit more beehivey in there.

I have 4 pugs, and this seems absolutely the game for me. You have completely understood the 'smart' expression of these dogs (which I do not consider dogs, in fact they are a breed that has little in common with dogs). Great idea :)
After having played a lot of dramatic style games lately, I'm really looking forward to playing something wacky like this one looks...
Oh....and your artwork is stunning!

I only have 2 more ‘rooms' to draw before all the scenes are made for the first chapter (and what will become the demo.)
I'm going to complete the demo before doing any work on the rest of the game, for feedback etc.

is that a pugcup? :D
Nah no date set, i'll have a demo out by the end of the year hopefully (sooner rather than later hopefully), then we'll see how it progresses from there.
If the game is half as good as the teaser trailer I will definitely be playing it (laugh)
i'll see what I can do! thanks for the interest

This looks so unique.
The style,characters,locations...perfick!
It reminds me of Rocko's modern life and all those other quirky 90's nick toons.
Oh and a crab playing pool with a sloth, yes...just yes. (nod)

I got a bit carried away there.... This is essentially the personality I attributed to my cat Tiggy, who always had *that* look about him, and he passed away nearly a year ago now on the 30th October. I know Tiggy is not a sinister enough name, so feel free to change it if it gets used! We were always convinced he was plotting things when we weren't there, and I don't remember how it came about, but we used to joke that he was writing piano concertos...
This is him plotting whilst looking out across his territory..
and this is my favourite picture, because I made him wear a Christmas hat :-D
And finally, because there wasn't a good view of his face:

Just the posting of the cat pictures (they're in "hide" tags so I didn't alter them to links like I normally would) is a good way to start off topic posts talking about your [adorable] kitty.
That's all; carry on!

I love the graphics, the storyline, the crazy whacky surreal setting and characters.
How far does the demo go? does it have an end? Dont want to bang my head against a wall looking for things that are not there. Really like it though, cant wait to hear SFX, music and hopefully voice acting?

I really don't like the font. Sorry, I know you probably put in a lot of hard work on it, but I find it hard to read as being so big. Maybe if it was smaller it would work, I can't say.

Haven't tried much more than the first task, as the mentioned above problem, made me want to stop.
Post by: rickious on 06 Jan 2015, 20:48
I personally love the font from an artistic point of view, but its a little 'form over function', not as easy to read as I would have liked. Maybe smaller with a more contrasting colour? or outline? id hate to see it go, especially as it looks (am i wrong?) like your own creation.
*EDIT*
Downloading the updated demo now.... :)
