Yarrawah Interactive and rat cream games have launched early access for *Milo*, a horde shooter set during World War II in which players face off against the forces of a cult.
Survive the enemy’s wave-based attacks
In this game, players wake up in an unfamiliar body, thrown into a hellish battlefield. There, they are relentlessly pursued by a cult obsessed with a mysterious drink. Players must survive wave after wave of enemies, either solo or in co-op with up to four players.
Feed Enemy Corpses to the Rats
Defeated enemies become food for the rats, causing their swarm to grow larger. Furthermore, defeating enemies fills a gauge for a special ability that causes corpses to explode. Additionally, tickets earned in-game can be used to purchase upgrades at the “Traang” arcade.
