Alien invasion is imminent and you are in control of Tax Payer! Carry The President to safety at all costs!

Tax Payer has strong muscular arms and can use them to his advantage in creative ways, mostly by picking up and throwing various objects.

*Note: Reading the in-game dialogue is highly recommended, though reading it can be difficult due to the low-res font.*

Controls

> WASD and arrows to move

> Space to pick up and throw objects

> E to interact

> R to restart the level

Credits

> Programming - elq and unityyyy

> Music - EddieTheCubeHead and elq

> Graphics - AXLplosion

!!!Disclaimer: The HTML5 web version seems to be missing a couple lines of dialogue. We recommend downloading the .exe file for the "complete" experience.

Awesome Game! I Loved the music, and the art and the player controls felt awesome and reactive, it was really satisfying just to walk around! I also appreciate all the little details like the cars driving on the road!

Very cool game!

Loved it! The player controls felt very nice and the graphics fit the game well

Really like the concept and especially the pixel art. I did think the text was a little hard to read at times

Zachary Rodrigue21 Apr 2020, 02:43

the game is awsome and the puzzle are just hard enough but I found a small bug: if you go down on a wall it will push you ether to the left or the right. nice job

KilThrall21 Apr 2020, 02:45

It was hard for me to read the font and it took me a while to understand what I had to do, but it's an interesting game

Dryden21 Apr 2020, 02:45

Very good music + art combo. Everything worked together perfectly... Good work. Keep it up!

AntaresValdemar21 Apr 2020, 02:46

Really cool game. It took me a bit to figure out the puzzles. You nailed the visual style and it was funny as well. Great work!

mrcrazysci21 Apr 2020, 02:46

The music/sound effects really nice! I also liked the level design it was thought out well.

yscik21 Apr 2020, 02:46

Love that you can just pick up the aliens and throw them over the river! Two negative points, the music is pretty annoying, and the text is hard to read. Otherwise, really well done!

I really enjoyed it! controls were quick and gameplay felt smooth.

causalpigeon21 Apr 2020, 02:48

my favourite game i've played so far. I absolutely love the art and the mechanics .Once I first started I thought the speed was way to fast but as you play it it makes more sense. The puzzles are simple but fun

PrimalShadow21 Apr 2020, 02:48

love the art style!

CyclonicHeart5121 Apr 2020, 02:48

Really nice game, though the text can be quite hard to read

darthnumbers21 Apr 2020, 02:48

game is pretty funny, I enjoyed throwing things. Text is pretty hard to read

rufson21 Apr 2020, 02:54

love it!

Very nice game. I really liked the artstyle, sound and mood, they gave the game a fantastic atmosphere. The dialog was also well done, albiet sometimes a lil hard to read.

Took me quite awhile to figure out you could throw the president through the fence though. Really hope to see more levels!

awesome game! the text can be hard to read at times however.

The humour for this game was wonderful, the art style was charming, and the music was enjoyable (if a little repetitive for how long I played, but still fun). The puzzles were slightly challenging - not too hard and not too easy for a delivery like this! I had a lot of fun with it! ☆ ⭒ ☆ ⭒ ☆ ⭒ ☆

Awesome game. The controls for throwing were a bit confussing at first, I thought the throwbar was a healthbar and I was hurting myself by throwing. Text was hard to read at times. Otherwise funny and well made!

Reid Willis21 Apr 2020, 03:36

The music got a bit repetitive to me over time, but the graphics are very pleasing, and the dialogue was very funny! I enjoyed throwing the president around, it's unfortunate what happened to the white house, though

CokeJet21 Apr 2020, 04:27

nice game! guys, I like it!

Sheinxy21 Apr 2020, 15:13

Oh my god!

Amazing game! Congrats!

The pixel art is wonderful, the music is nice, pretty catchy and funny!

The dialogs are funny!

And the gameplay is great, I wish there were move levels because there is so much potential to do great puzzles! (Took me some time to figure out I could pick up the aliens tho x3)

Ended up on my favorite games list!

zillix22 Apr 2020, 05:17

Absolutely superb. Super fun, original, and funny. Great work!

Really an excellent and fun game. Great work for a jam!

Mathieu Semin23 Apr 2020, 15:08

Really funny and original game. Nice job !

itsdanidre25 Apr 2020, 01:12

Wow! HAHA PRESIDENT!

Not gonna lie, that ending was unexpected! And who is your artist man!? They've sure got some talen! @AXLplosion :wink:

Nice game idea, and nice game! The only caveat is the smaller text but everything came off solid and well done! Nice!

nice work!!!

zubspace30 Apr 2020, 14:38

Very nice! Cool little puzzles, combined with cute pixel art and funny dialog. Love it!

I was laughing :D audiio also perfectly fits the mood. I'm not a big fan of that kind of graphics and should notice, that text is a bit hard to read. But anyway it's a good entry, well done guys :)

If you're looking for a tiny but readable low-res font, I used this nice 3x5 font for one of my previous entries: https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/1602566/unnamed-3x5. Though the one you used isn't bad either!
