Watch the 'NanoApostle' Announcement Trailer now!
This intense pixelated boss-rush title promises merciless adversaries like axe-wielding mechs, fire-spewing behemoths, psychokinetic terrors and vicious encounters culminating in the brutal execution of your foes.
Ahead of the release, jump in and face off against the game’s first two bosses, the axe-wielding Berserker and the bullet-hell Commander, by playing the demo on Steam!
THE BOSSES
THE BERSERKER
Wielding two giant axes, the Berserker overwhelms with a flurry of close-range strikes before leaping into the air to unleash a devastating ground pound.
Don't stray too far, however, as the Berserker is also equipped with long-range capabilities such as a sweeping laser beam and projectiles.
THE COMMANDER
A tactical manipulator, the Commander is capable of summoning swarms of drones that come equipped with different offensive capabilities.
Use your nanites to take control of the drones and turn the weapons against her.
THE DESTRUCTION POINT SYSTEM
The Destruction Point system is the key to defeating these imposing boss battles.
Every enemy has a weakness, and Anita can utilise her Nanites to exploit them. During combat, the boss will occasionally be exposed to a counterattack, represented by a depleting circle surrounding the boss.
Attacking the enemy during this brief window with either a melee or ranged attack will trigger the Destruction Point. If done correctly, Anita will stagger the enemy and a second prompt to grapple towards them will appear.
This move will deal significant damage and render the boss briefly staggered for follow-up strikes.
Anita can also trigger the Destruction Point by successfully parrying certain attacks or deflecting blasts back at the boss.
Timing is everything, hone these skills and take them with you as you face down the Berserker and the Commander.
