Steam
Meat Engine introduces you to a surrealist distant dystopian future where all aspects of science and logic are unrecognizable. Inspired by Scorn, Quake, Dusk and Doom.
Featuring Music composed by Stan Magendanz

Chaos has taken hold and death is rampant, this madness must be stamped out so that order may return.
One of the monarchs has began to degrade, its control over its territory is weakening. With the monarch's wavering power over its subjects, chaos has overrun the land, bringing death and madness.
The Monarch can no longer be trusted and must be exterminated so that a new monarch may take its place. You play as a Stillborn, one of the many bioweapons, that have been tasked with eliminating the Monarch and bringing an end to the chaos.
From the ashes of the Monarch a new age will begin.
Forever at war with itself, intertwined in an eternal intergalactic conflict. The Meat Engine is a planet sized sentient biomass, that scours the universe in an endless search for living matter. The rage and loathing of those lost the Meat Engine manifest in the Defective Ones. Mutated solders who would go against the rule of the Monarchs, some retain the memories of their past, other are reduced to nothing more than animals. However there is a constant between all those effected by mutation, their savage hatred towards the Meat Engine.

Featuring a large arsenal of biological and living weaponry to brutally eviscerate your foes, as you uncover the secrets of the Meat Engine and its mysterious origin. 8 unique weapons are currently planned.

Meat Engine will feature a variety of surreal and diverse biological biomes for the player to explore. With 8 unique levels at the full launch. New features and enemies are introduced with each level.
