Numskull Games and Smitner Studio have set a September 10 launch for Hazard Pay, a warehouse keeper game that casts the player as a lone cleaner in a contaminated, abandoned facility. The job is not simple cleanup: each area is a compact puzzle where environmental gimmicks let the player collect scattered documents or push objects into chemical tanks to erase traces. A wrong step can trap the player, dissolve them in acid, or worse.
The game is built around handcrafted puzzle stages and grid-based push-and-pull mechanics, with a dystopian story told through the environment and detailed pixel art. It supports global and friend leaderboards. Hazard Pay releases on PC via Steam, PS5, and Nintendo Switch on September 10, and a demo is currently available on Steam.
