The Story of Rude Workers

Nazis have found the secret to time travel – opening portals throughout history – they have recruited fellow Nazis from throughout history, genetically modified them, and imbued them with dangerous extra-physical powers. Together with their incognito followers in the corporate world, they are reducing civilization to ashes. Only you, in control of a collection of out-of-work weirdos, are interested in rescuing the world from History’s scum. 

Play as four socially inept members of the marginalia, each with unique sci-fi abilities, and the power to summon the souls of the dead in their defense. When all is lost suicide is the natural answer.

Meet the Rude Workers – each with their own story of survival in a rapidly decaying society. Like everyone, they watched as societies across the world destroyed themselves with a vapid and hateful ideology. As morality did a 180 degree turn, the previously reviled became the earth’s new leaders. This gang of four complete strangers met by chance – and decided only they could stand in the way of these savages. Each had hidden their specials powers from society, but now find they can also summon the souls of the dead.

RYLE

Raised by rich adoptive parents, Ryle never fitted in with his siblings or parents. After a journey to find his birth parents, Ryle discovered he had the ability to shoot plasma bursts from his hands. Only when he joined the Rude Workers did he find a home.

SERA

Sera was always an outcast, living deep in societies margins. Gay, butch, and borderline psychotic, she built a life in the peripheral. Bullied in school she fought back and discovered a powerful ability to channel psychic telekinetic weapons.

Amber

Born Adam Noble, Amber’s journey is one of transition – changing from powerless to strong, from boy to woman. In constant danger in a society which is becoming increasingly hostile to her very existence. Now she fights back.

SID

Sid is the archetypal punk, crude, loyal and fiercely anti-fascist. Between band practice an rocking, he finds time to bust some Nazi heads. With the power to summon and launch fireballs at will.

Platformer shoot-em-up action

All the graphics are hand drawn and animated using Aseprite. Animations are drawn frame by frame. All recreated from pencil concepts. It takes longer but hopefully will give the game a unique look. Code is written in JavaScript, currently utilising the HTML Canvas object in modern web browsers. I have extended an existing HTML/JS library called ImpactJS.
