If you have ever felt the burning desire to climb the corporate ladder by any means necessary—including chainsaws and staple guns—Stick It to the Stickman is the chaotic, high-octane experience you have been waiting for. This indie action title invites players into a hilariously hostile work environment where "getting ahead" is measured in defeated rivals and office carnage. Whether playing solo or teaming up with a 'friend,' the goal remains the same: eliminate the competition to secure your promotion.

Chaos in the Corporate Hierarchy

Set within a tower of corporate greed, the game places you in a world where shareholders demand growth at any cost. The gameplay mechanics revolve around a brutal variety of combat methods and task-based objectives. To ascend the ranks, players must master a wide array of weaponry and techniques, ranging from traditional punches and kicks to more unorthodox tools like jackhamments, fireballs, and even staple guns. Success in this office requires more than just business acumen; you must master the "deadly art of the handshake" and learn how to perform an exploding heart punch to survive your coworkers.

The gameplay loop blends intense combat with absurd mission objectives. As you fight your way toward the top, you will find yourself performing tasks that are as ridiculous as they are violent. This includes delivering parcels through combat zones, dashing between high-stakes assignments, and—true to the game's satirical tone—kicking rivals out of windows to ensure your path to the top remains clear.

Become the Ultimate CEO

The ultimate goal is to reach the pinnacle of the tower and defeat the current bosses to claim the title for yourself. However, becoming the CEO isn't just about combat; it involves engaging in "dubiously legal" activities essential for company expansion. To ensure your corporate empire thrives, you will be tasked with:

  • Expanding Profit Margins: Engage in high-stakes maneuvers like stealing cars and suppressing protestors to keep the company growing.
  • Aggressive Management: Perform tasks such as kidnapping building inspectors to bypass regulations in the name of profit.
  • Physical Dominance: Fight other rival CEOs to prove you possess the most prestige (and the biggest muscles).

Community Driven Level Building

Stick It to the Stickman offers significant longevity through its integration with the Steam Workshop. The "Shake Hands with the Free Market" feature includes a robust Level Builder that allows players to take full control of their own corporate ventures. You can manage every aspect of your custom creation, including:

  • Staffing and Logistics: Make critical decisions regarding hiring, firing, and catering.
  • Infrastructure: Design and furnish your own office environments.
  • Marketing: Create unique challenges for the community to tackle.

Once your levels are built, you can upload them for others to play, or download and evaluate the entrepreneurial ideas of other players in the community.

Who is this game for?

Stick It to the Stickman appeals to fans of physics-based action, indie combat games, and anyone who enjoys dark, satirical humor. If you enjoy the frantic energy of "platformer-combat" hybrids and want a game where the gameplay loop is fueled by pure, unadulterated mayhem, this title is a must-watch for your upcoming library.
