RPG World: Fan Revival

#618 - Hyper Mecha Rat King
11/19/2019

You know, when I first wrote these pages, the Rat King was just a regular rat with Doc Oc appendages. And the other rats also had mechanical appendages, and they all linked appendages together to form one big mechanical rat king.

That didn’t quite translate.

But you know what. A giant rat boss made of smaller, squirming rats is just as horrifying. Let’s see where this nightmare bus takes us.

does seem like a good thematic boss for Reka to fight, I wonder if she can still call up Piddo and Podder Head...

Love the parody of these strange boss introductions. I remember when Ocarina of Time used strangely (and completely out of place) scientific descriptions when introducing its bosses just to sound cool.

I love that you've got story, characters, and all the heart of old RPGWorld but haven't forgotten its satirical roots. You guys are killin it dude :)

Also, hope everything went well with that opportunity you were talking about a few weeks ago! Still got my fingers crossed for ya!

Aww, thanks!

And unfortunately nah, I made it to the second round but they moved on. It's alright, it was a VERY high level competitive position!

I like how you said that your buffer of strips ran out, and yet you’ve stayed on top of it for a bit now. Good job! I like the idea of an ultramodern rat king in an ultramodern setting! Very cool. =D

That's all Atari working hard on the art! He's still churning out pages for us 😁

Reka isn't a fan of cutscenes. Can't imagine why.

Could definitely see some cutscene PTSD developing

I'd love to see that as a throughline for her. Cutscenes start and she just panics.

Atari had some fun here, I’m sure. This looks incredible. And horrifying. Imagine an animated version! ...uurgh. Nightmare bus is moving too fast now!

Sorry Reka, but non-speaking bosses gotta get their title card first so game guides have something to go by.

Granted, I'd be scared too if the cutscene was still playing and the battle transition wasn't happening like it should. There's a big difference between just taking some hit points of damage and actually being bitten and bleeding (even if it magically disappears after that cutscene).
