About Escape From Meat City

Escape from Meat City is an intense, fast-paced first person shooter set in a surreal world where humans are raised for their meat. As an escapee from the slaughterhouse, you'll need to catch the bus and shoot your way through hordes of Federal Agents to make it out of town. Fight with a huge arsenal of randomized weapons, collect powerups, and explore the nightmarish urban sprawl of Meat City.

Escape from Meat City is a roguelike shooter featuring randomized levels and permadeath. Each new game is a randomized journey through 9 different stages, populated with a unique set of enemies and items each time. If you die, it's game over, and you'll be sent back to the beginning to try again with a newly generated run. Try again and again to see all the 15+ unique enemies, 40+ unique weapons, and dozens of friendly characters.

It has a unique art style and a lot of potential. My only gripe is I wish there was a way to change the difficulty or slow down the difficulty ramp up because it feels like i'm dying way before I can really even see the good part of the game. Being able to change weapons with scroll wheel would also be nice, aswelll as a control mapping menu.

It's not really bad, but it's definitely not what I expected from the description. The elements are all there, but at the core is something not mentioned: A hard-stop time limit in every stage, and a timer where the enemy spawns get exponentially more intense, making navigating or avoiding damage almost impossible. This makes it feel like it's supposed to be a speedrun game, except the levels are randomly generated and you have very little in the way of movement tools. You don't really have time to pick and choose upgrades or explore around, you have to rush for the tokens required to get to the next level, if you see any good upgrades (or maybe good) grab them on the way (if you have enough money from killing enemies on the go), and then camp at the exit until the timer hits a certain spot farming money for the next level. Normally with roguelikes you have a few approaches: carefully explore, choose how to spend resources, risk vs. reward of dumping resources into one option over another, or rush through if there is a scaling element in the hopes of getting lucky enough to keep ahead of the curve. Here you don't have those options at all, it's JUST "rush forward at all times un…

Neat little game. Kinda unrefined at times, but its a roguelike that mandates you break it which is always interesting. Pretty cool and worth your money if you can appreciate the art style.

I love the art style, but left me a little bored. Would love achievements also.

This game is gonna be big. I wasnt planning on writing a review this early, but when I saw that it still only had 20 reviews, I wanted to contribute, hoping that itll get more attention. The Dev is a great guy, the game receives updates and the core gameplay is great. Please support this single man project.
