Our take on Kill The Plumber
Its defining idea is role reversal: the player controls the enemies and must prevent the platforming protagonist from completing each stage.
What is Kill The Plumber?
Kill The Plumber is an anti-platformer in which the player controls enemies rather than the usual heroic character.
Each level requires stopping the protagonist from reaching his goal. The game begins with a slow minion that cannot jump but can defeat the hero, then introduces enemies able to jump, shoot, stomp, or fly. Some stages involve controlling multiple characters at once. The game includes more than 140 levels set across snow, islands, underwater areas, dungeons, and a castle. It offers 30 playable enemies, multiple ways to complete levels, controller support, Steam achievements, an achievements room, and recorded speedruns.
