Indie Game Studio
Now in Development
You start cooking in a basement. You end up the most wanted chef alive.
About the Studio
We approach game design with deliberate purpose. Every mechanic, system, and detail exists because someone decided it should be there, not because it's expected or because other games have it.
We believe the best games come from a clear vision executed with discipline. Every system we build serves the player experience first. If a mechanic doesn't make you feel something, it doesn't ship.
Rat Dracula is an indie game studio building Controlled Consumption, a satirical dystopian operation sim where food is illegal, rats are your first ingredient, and success is the thing that destroys you.
Flavor is a privilege. Paste is a right.
Trust the F.E.D.S. They know what's best for you.
Federal Enforcement of Dietary Standards
The Game
In a walled city where all food is banned and citizens survive on government-issued nutrient paste, you are a chef. An old friend says there's serious money cooking real food for desperate people. You arrived with nothing. You are homeless in the slums. Your first ingredient is a sewer rat.
Build an underground food empire from the sewers up. Source ingredients, cook dishes, deliver to clients, and manage the heat that comes with every meal you sell. The bigger you get, the harder they hunt. The F.E.D.S. are always watching.
Real cooking mechanics with barrel fires, hotplates, spatial placement, and dial control. Quality comes from your attention, not your equipment. This is a craft, not a menu.
Every delivery grows your reputation and your danger. You cannot become more famous without becoming more hunted. Success is the thing that kills you.
Homeless. Sewer rats. A barrel fire. Build from there to hidden restaurants, courier networks, and a citywide operation, if the F.E.D.S. don't burn it all down first.
The Federal Enforcement of Dietary Standards. Military gear. Tactical raids. All over food. They are absurd and they will absolutely end your career.
Run the operation together. One cooks, one delivers. Or both do everything and watch the chaos multiply. Built on networked architecture from day one.
One raid cascades through your whole operation. Workers flip, locations burn, and heat spikes. You built the machine. Now watch it come apart at the seams.
The Experience
Practice a skilled trade the world has made illegal. You are not clicking menus. You are a chef working a flame.
From sewer rats and a barrel fire to a citywide underground empire. Every step up was earned.
The F.E.D.S. adapt to you. Evade patrols, dodge raids, and feel the net tighten as your reputation grows.
Your name is your greatest asset and your greatest liability. Fame opens doors. Heat kicks them in.
The world is absurd and plays it completely straight. A cheeseburger is the most dangerous thing you can cook.
