Our take on NanoScape
Its defining structure is a first-person version of classic wave-based arcade shooting, with successive enemy groups forming the central combat cycle.
What is NanoScape?
NanoScape is a first-person action game set in space, drawing on Galaga and earlier arcade titles built around enemy waves.
Rapid, demanding battles pit players against repeated formations of foes. The arsenal includes the quick-firing Nano Blaster, the slower Double Penetrator with greater impact, and a Sentinel craft that guards the player while attacking opponents. Score tables support comparisons with friends. The action is accompanied by an original electro-dubstep soundtrack.
