Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion was a humorous, Zelda-like todo record of a recreation that gained serveral RPS employees over final 12 months. Now it is getting a “follow-up spin-off” which provides roguelite and top-down shooter components into the combo, referred to as Turnip Boy Robs A Bank. Watch the reveal trailer beneath.

The unique recreation had loads of fight, however you had been extra prone to be slicing at sentient fruits and veg with a sword than firing off machineguns in your varied quests. Turnip Boy Robs A Bank stars the identical grinning root vegetable and seemingly the identical irreverent tone and sentient meals, but it surely’s about delving into the “deep, darkish depths” of the Botanical Bank, stealing cash, and utilizing that cash to purchase new weaponry.

Examples given embody a diamond pickaxe, C4, and a radio jammer, and the trailer above additional options toxic flowers, haunted bricks and, er, tub water.

Alice adored the unique recreation in Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion evaluate, calling it “the funiest recreation I’ve ever performed”:

It’s received an especially on-line vibe, however with a way of self-awareness. I think this can be a very particular model of humour, but it surely was one which I actually loved. Early on, for instance, a streamer blocks your path and calls for a sub from you – so it’s important to go and purchase a sandwich. One of the primary aspect quests you possibly can encounter is to retrieve hire from a tenant, however the one motion out there at that time is to kill him. The different tenant expresses some dismay, till you hand the money over. And Turnip Boy will gleefully tear up not simply his personal tax paperwork, however actually any piece of paper that’s handed to him. This is exploited to nice impact.

I loved the sport loads too, principally for the way in which it piles you excessive with small, daft quests so that each step throughout its vibrant world looks like progress. That’s why I name it a todo-list recreation, and it is nice for enjoying to loosen up of a night.

Turnip Boy Robs A Bank is at present aiming for launch in 2023, and you will find extra screenshots over on Steam.
