It's time for the rats... To WAR!

Sidescrolling 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.

KEY FEATURES:
  •  Brutal 2D Shooting Action: Engage in brutal, fast-paced, strategic battles against hordes of enemies. (Did I say brutal enough yet?)

  • Recruit Troops: Going in alone is sure to lead to failure. Make sure you utilize your troops effectively or it's GG. Call in reinforcements at key times to turn the tide of battle in your favour.

  • Buy New Weapons and Gear: Earn credits (CHz) and upgrade at the shop (rat dealer) to give yourself an edge over the endless hordes that are only going to get stronger and stranger as you get closer to TechnoRat HQ.

  • Base Building: Build turrets, shrines, walls, resource generators and missile launchers to counter and overwhelm the armies of TechnoRat.

  • Roguelike Progression: You have one life to fight through each district and try to reach the TechnoRat HQ and shut them down permanently. On death, spend your hard earned CHz to upgrade your attributes to do better!

  • Iron Rat Mode: If you like a challenge, enable this toggle to turn your run even more hardcore! Start over at level 1 again if you die, but keep the core gameplay loop of upgrading with whatever you earned during that run.

  • Unique Art Style: Experience the world of Ratopia with graphics all hand-drawn by rat artist wootusart (Me!). (Meaning I am an artist who draws rats, not that I am a rat that is an artist. That would be crazy.)

  • Skirmish Mode: Select any map and just go at it, for practice or for fun. Or both!

  • Multiplayer (Coming Soon): Grab a friend and go rat-toe to rat-toe on any of the maps featured in the game.

The rats have whispered to me in the night that I must make this game. They demand it. I must obey. They scurry in my mind. I cannot sleep. I cannot rest. Until it is done.
