Back To Reality - A Psychological Thriller (in development)
Hi guys, my name is Leonid Pilchin (@LeonDaydreamer).
I am excited about an episodic text-driven adventure game I've been working on for the past little while called Back To Reality.
I would describe Back To Reality as a manic depressive psychological thriller, with humorous highs and intense crashes. It also has
supernatural and science fiction elements that unfold as the story progresses. The first chapter "A Day in the Life" sees our main
character, attorney Sam Nichols exposed to progressively dire circumstances that threaten to unravel his reality and destroy those close to
him. With your firm struggling and on the brink of going under, you take on an important new case, but the odds already seem stacked
against you. Things are not as they appear, and a deeper conspiracy begins to emerge. Where will you end up if you keep untangling the
threads? You will just have to take it one step at a time to find out.
I'm currently working on the artwork, the first chapter will be coming in a bit.

Sam Nichols is a Seattle attorney who managed to maintain most of his idealism about how the world works. No, it is never fair, but at no point would you hear him say there is nothing that can be done. Though he swears to protect his colleague's moral high ground, he himself is not above throwing a curve ball at the opposition to see what ripples it might stir. His intelligence, even his sanity will be put to the test amid a dark web of conspiracy he has the misfortune of uncovering.
@LeonDaydreamer
was this just a teaser??
He said he was working on the artwork and the first chapter is coming soon.
true. i was just being impatient instead of process what WAS said.
looks really good so far!!
Hey feliwebwork, thanks so much for your comments! I really appreciate it.
My job got a little hectic the past few months, so I had to take a little break from working on Back To Reality. I'm back on it now, though. At this point it's still a ways from completion as it kept evolving into a more graphical game. I'm almost finished all the character art, and then I have to do the background artwork for it.
Attorney Harold Kline (Harry) is more than a friend to you, he has been your mentor your entire professional life. Nearly everyone has turned their back on him now, but you would never. Can you save this man's life from falling apart?
Aaand, I'm officially finished designing all the characters for the first chapter of my game! :)
Next come backgrounds...
Now, without further ado I present my first background (which took me way too long to do :P ):
THE DINER
The neighbourhood diner near your workplace. Our story begins with a chat between two of our protagonists over a lunch that goes horribly wrong.

For one thing - the title is now A NEAR DAWN.
I wish I could go back and revise the first post and topic title, but this forum seems to be a little unforgiving in those terms.
At any rate, you can learn more about the project on our website: http://www.faroffdaydream.com
And here is the trailer to A NEAR DAWN:
