Overview
New Meat plunges players into a darkly comedic and fast-paced horror roguelite experience, centered around the grim realities of working at a remote burger joint. As Niko, the newest employee at Burger Site, your primary responsibility is to keep the freezers stocked with fresh meat. This isn't your typical fast-food gig; the meat comes from monsters lurking in a sprawling, horrific flesh-dungeon beneath the establishment. Players must venture into this dangerous subterranean world, dispatching grotesque creatures to harvest their flesh, all while trying to avoid becoming a meal themselves.
