About Hazard Pay

You guide workers through a factory where nothing stays still and every safe-looking platform is a trap waiting to spring. Floors disappear beneath your feet, doors scuttle away before you reach them, and spikes thrust up the instant you land. You choose one of three characters—Cinder the salamander clings to walls and wall-jumps, Pip the crash-test dummy gets a second jump in mid-air, and Rivet the robot hovers briefly and reveals hidden hazards. Work through sixty punishing shifts, earn hazard pay for completing each level, and spend it on cosmetic hats and visual trails. Poki Games hosts this troll platformer that rewards patience and pattern recognition, because the path that looks easiest will almost certainly kill you first.
