Some construction jobs are dangerous because of heights, heavy machinery or questionable safety standards. Shady Job adds one more complication: the body bag your crew has been ordered to bury is still moving. The four-player co-op adventure is now available on Steam.

Carry the Bag to the Top
The mafia has given your construction crew a simple-sounding assignment: move a body bag to the top of an unfinished skyscraper and bury it in concrete. Reaching that destination means crossing broken floors, open shafts and unstable structures while keeping hold of cargo that would very much like to escape.
The bag is an active part of the challenge. It struggles, breaks structures, pushes workers toward ledges and becomes more aggressive when handled roughly. A route that looks secure can collapse when the bag shifts at the wrong moment, turning careful progress into a physics-driven rescue operation.
Build Your Own Dangerous Route
Players must create paths through the construction site using the materials available. Temporary bridges can span deadly drops, while cranes and moving platforms help the crew reach higher floors. Walls and windows can be broken when the obvious route is blocked.
Because structures are deliberately unstable, building is never completely separate from traversal. Every beam must support both the workers and the unruly bag, and one poorly placed piece can take the rest of the route with it. The result is a mixture of platforming, problem solving and physical comedy.
Tools for Survival—and Sabotage
The Plunger Gun provides a flexible way to climb, control the bag and save teammates from falls. Other tools and interactive machinery create opportunities for clever solutions, but they can just as easily send a co-worker into danger when timing or communication breaks down.
Shady Job is designed around a crew of up to four players. Coordinated teams can divide responsibilities between building, carrying and operating machinery, while less disciplined groups may discover that their biggest obstacle is each other. Both approaches generate the kind of unpredictable stories that make co-op physics games memorable.
Who Is Shady Job For?
This is a natural choice for groups that enjoy chaotic co-op games, improvised construction and dark comedy. The premise is deliberately absurd, but teamwork still matters: players who communicate clearly will make faster progress, even if the physics ensures that no plan remains perfect for long.
Pro Tip
Assign one player to scout and another to stabilize the route before moving the bag. Trying to build, climb and carry at the same time invites disaster. When the bag starts fighting back, lower it onto a secure platform instead of wrestling with it beside an open drop.
