Steam Store description

BOX QUOTES "Delicious Trash" - Rock Paper Shotgun Roadmap I have failed to implement Road Map Update 7 - Multiplayer. I just cannot code it. I'm sorry. I am just one person working on this game and I only just learned how to code really. It was too advanced for me at this level. I really did try my best. Please see the Discussions section for a full post about it. Anyway, the game is and always has been single-player focused. So doesn't matter! About the Game It's time for the rats... To WAR! Sidescrolling roguelite shooter meets tower defense with a sprinkle of RPG elements. A hand-drawn rat-filled side-scrolling looter-shooter moba-lite 2D gore-fest inspired by that brutal 90s gaming feel of yore. Set in a world where rats are the only form of life. Lead your troops to battle and retake the land of Ratopia from TechnoRat: A singular consciousness comprising cyborg rats that want nothing more than to consume all flesh and turn it to metal. Inspired by games such as Kingdom: New Lands and Futurecop LAPD's Precinct Assault mode (now generally considered to be the first ever MOBA) delivered in a package that evokes the brutal, gory 90s gaming sprites of old, it's a non-stop bloody action game with lovingly hand-drawn art and animation. Loads of weapons, enemies and loot to be had. You must manage and fight alongside your army to push back the tide of the enemy and get your Ratineer into their base. Sounds simple but it won't be easy. Current Content: FULL SINGLE PLAYER CAMPAIGN HORDE MODE NEW GAME + (BASICALLY INFINITE RUNS MODE) CUSTOMIZABLE RATS NEST BASE SKIR…

Content descriptors

There are no humans featured in the game. The game is set in a world where every living creature is some kind of rat. All the violence and gore therefore is only of these animals. The game is also entirely hand drawn in a somewhat cartoony stylized look and so not photorealistic or 3D.
