Overview and Gameplay
A lone pilot sits inside a towering assault mech as alien forces push humanity into retreat across devastated battlefields. Each mission unfolds as a side-scrolling combat operation where precision movement and survival matter as much as firepower. Players advance through structured stages filled with enemy waves, heavy mechanical units, and boss encounters that demand careful positioning and weapon choice.
The core loop focuses on progressing through linear missions, eliminating hostile forces, and adapting to changing combat scenarios. The mech can engage enemies at range, reposition quickly, and manage limited combat resources while pushing forward through increasingly hostile environments.
