NANO

"Hello, NANO... can you hear me?"

Your vision is blurry, from every direction you hear unfamiliar sounds.

"NANO, this is important, you need to wake up, you have work to do."

You blink and your vision becomes more focused, you are inside what seems to be a vein, and blood cells speed past you, carrying oxygen to the numerous internal systems.

"This is NANO..... I am ready to proceed."

What is NANO?

NANO is a hand-drawn 2D side-scrolling platformer inspired by titles such as Super Metroid and Infernax where you play as a Nanobot navigating through different areas of the human body to defeat the diseases that have been slowly killing your host over time. The game itself aims to be fun as well as educational by using real diseases and microbes to inform the player of what can affect their body

What about gameplay?

The gameplay includes movement within a 2D environment, navigating obstacles by running, jumping, and crouching through each level. You will also fight numerous enemies using long-range attacks, allowing you to fully utilize the environment around you.

"We must protect NANO at all costs, she is the last hope of humanity..."
