Susan Taxpayer is a free 2D platformer made in the SMBX2 engine, meant to imitate the likes of the later Wario Land games (specifically WL4!), with music by the Super Lesbian Animal RPG composer Beatrix Quinn! Follow Susan and her coworker Franky as she powers through the worst workday ever. Help her platform through a myriad of office themed levels, from orientation videos to mailrooms to forests made of printer paper!

Susan Taxpayer has a strong focus on fun, fluid platforming, replayability, and exploration, allowing for many different routes through each level that lets players of all skill levels complete the game, but with a high ceiling on mastery. Grab every Golden Paperclip, unlock every door, and get to the exit in time to avoid the wrath of the Briefest Case!

We've currently got a demo out! The Orientation Build as I'm calling it. There are two levels packaged inside; Employee Training and Office Orientation! Additionally, there's an extra bonus room for players that gather the Golden Documents in each level. Give it a shot! The build also comes with six achievements to snag. :D Grab it below at my SAGE Booth page!

Notice! Everything in this demo is subject to change; this includes graphics, animations, level design, and even movement skills. As this is an early build of the game, there are still some engine bugs present! If you end up stuck in the Ground Pound animation, simply mash the movement and charge buttons, and you should break free. Feel free to send any feedback to me at @punkittdev on Twitter or punkitt-is-here on tumblr! Or, y'know, comment down below.

I love this with all my forces.
My constructive criticism is to doing more of this, this is good.
