Tax-Force: Stickin’ It to Billionaires in 2D Style With Jim Lee Art!
By Xandria Morden|August 16, 2023|0 Comment
Northern Irish indie developer Outsider Games is excited to reveal their new project, Tax-Force. Tax-Force is a comic book-inspired narrative action rogue-lite. If you’re attending Gamescom, get ready to experience hands-on gameplay and meet the Outsider Games team at the Indie Arena booth. Tax-Force is set to arrive on PC via Steam, and you can add it to your Wishlist now.
In Tax-Force, players confront morality-based policies and economic strategy as they tackle themes of government actions and corporate accountability. The game’s backdrop is a galaxy in financial crisis. To rescue the planet and save Farset13’s Solar Shield from shutdown, you’ll lead Tax-Force, a squad of armed Treasurers with emergency powers. Their mission: track down billionaire mutant tax evaders.
With only 7 days to spare, you’ll battle defenses, negotiate repayments, and clear the debt directly, all while deciding whether to reinvest in the city’s economy or tackle the crisis head-on. The clock is ticking, and the planet’s fate hangs in the balance.
Stephen Downey, CEO of Outsider Games, shared his excitement:
“We’ve poured years of effort into crafting Tax-Force, our ultimate creation that fuses our love for 90s comic books with our stance against tax-avoiding billionaires. Revealing the game at the Indie Arena booth at Gamescom is a moment we eagerly anticipate after all the hard work.”
Don’t miss the chance to be part of the unveiling of Tax-Force, a game that combines action, narrative depth, and tough decisions in an exhilarating rogue-lite adventure.
Melee Combat – a focus on tough, close-range combat, with hand-drawn, rogue-lite biomes that remix with every run.
Mutant Powers – Specials inspired by superhero mutant powers. Astral Projection! Metal Man! Optical Blasts!
Strategy and Morality – Negotiate with targets to affect the economy, narrative and gameplay on each run. Every decision challenges players to choose between sci-fi metaphors for socialist vs capitalist economic policies.
Rebuild – As you reinvest in society, the gameplay reacts. Price and potency of healing responds to public or private investment in healthcare. Weapons and criminal activity adjust as you increase defence spend, while new bridges and paths appear as you invest in infrastructure.
Branching Narrative – Every decision leads to narrative consequences for the Farset13 citizens, as their stories are guided by your choices, and the city organically grows and changes around them.
Timeloop – Death activates your time-travelling mutant power, sending you back to Day 1, armed with knowledge of your enemies and the consequences of your actions.
Stunning Visuals – Gorgeous, hand-drawn comic book art style inspired by Jim Lee and 90’s X-men comics.
