Ant Workshop, the studio behind recent, twin-stick focused puzzler Binaries, has announced that their latest project Dead End Job will be coming to Nintendo Switch next year.
The game is a twin-stick shooter that sees you take on the role of Hector Plasm, (an employee of a paranormal pest control company called 'Ghoul-B-Gone'). Your aim is to become the employee of the month, at which point you will be deemed ready to avenge the murder of an ex-coworker. Despite this shockingly dark plot, the game looks like a whole lot fun featuring some lovely cartoon-like artwork and the potential for some great humour.
You can take a look at the game's announcement trailer below.
The game will see you clearing out ghosts that reside in a variety of buildings, using your vacuum pack to suck them up like our favourite, overshadowed plumber. It also features drop-in / drop-out couch co-op play, enabling you to go it alone or easily jump into a game with friends - a perfect fit for the hardware.
This could well be another cracking addition to the eShop's library of multiplayer fun but, until we know for sure, let us know your initial thoughts in the comments below.

Honestly, in this day and age, you can play games equal or better on the internet for free. I personally wouldn't pay more than a dollar or two for this.
I just bought Stardew Valley last night so I've got a farm to get going and I'm strangely drawn to Farming Simulator which comes out next month.Then we have that cleaning game on the way from Curve Digital, I forget the name but it looks alright and since it's from them it probably will be. That's enough working games for me. Anyway, this looks comparable to some of the worst jobs I've done in the past so I'll be giving this one a miss.
I guess it looks okay but I definitely won’t be picking it up.
Looks okay I just hope it doesn't get flamed in the increasing flood of games on the eshop. Twin-Stick shooters are fun but, I feel like there has been an over saturation of them over the past 2 or 3 years.
@Fake-E-Lee I used to think buyers would speak with their wallets until I realized RCMADIAX became one of the most prolific, yet trash developers the Wii U and 3DS have ever seen. And, according to GameFAQs, he has two Switch titles in development... Ugh.
Nope.
Is dead end job a title or a description?
@LiberatedAnimal Nice! I see your hidden message. Flame In The Flood!
@insertcoin2play Thanks. A great looking game. I'm going to download it after I beat Secret of Mana on my Snes Mini.
No
Doesn't look that hot. And let me guess...its rogue-like?
