Rat Musou

v0.3.0 introduces City Escape, a new survival challenge set in a Taiwanese shopping district. Fight while retreating, clear a path through the chaos, and defeat three bosses to unlock your escape route. New mode: City Escape - Run through 3D streets with 2D characters, rats, and fleeing residents, keeping Rat Musou's familiar character artwork. - Aim and fire manually while moving. Shooting can briefly slow the pursuing swarm, but it will keep coming. - Streets continue until all three bosses are defeated. Reach the evacuation point afterward to trigger the finale. - Residents react to the outbreak and emerge from shops along the route. Clear nearby rats to help them escape. - Earn experience directly from defeated enemies without leaving pickups on the road. Choose combat upgrades as you level up, with a slower upgrade pace and no hidden wait after filling the XP bar. Three bosses stand in your way - Face distinct boss entrances, attack warnings, and defeat sequences. - Dodge Gnawfang's fast charge and return rush. - Plague Overlord covers a larger area in poison: an 8 × 14 m zone with a 1.6-second warning, while leaving an escape lane beside nearby barricades. - Mecha Rat's laser extends to the street boundary, with its beam aligned to the warning area. - Boss area attacks can also damage nearby rats. Use the chaos to your advantage. Turn the street against the swarm - Shoot abandoned cars and red fuel barrels to ignite explosions that damage enemies. Stay clear of the blast yourself. - Navigate construction fences, fallen scooters, food carts, and crates. Shoot carts and crates to open a path, or buy time while rats break through barricades. - Explore more varied streets with arcades, signs, scooters, rooftop details, bubble tea shops, and braised-pork-rice shops with fictional names. - Improved resident avoidance, rat separation around bosses, and the hero's running motion while firing. - Added impact sounds for roadside objects, expanded effect prewarming, and fixed obstacle and resident resets when street sections are reused. A more consistent interface - Refreshed the title screen, campaign status panel, and game-over screen with dark metal panels and warm gold trim. - Made City Escape's health, XP, dash hints, upgrade choices, and results more compact and readable. - Improved shop heart alignment and Stage Select translations, artwork, and card order. - Clear Stage 6 to unlock ending replay, even if you have not previously finished watching the ending. The locked card remains visible with its requirement.
