What is Nurose?

Nurose is a top-down arena shooter structured around best-of-five duels. You arrange movement and conditional glyphs in wands to create attacks such as proximity mines or spells that intercept projectiles, then fight other players online. All glyphs are available from the start rather than unlocked through leveling.

For you if...

+you enjoy tinkering with complex systems before competing
+you prefer quick duels over longer multiplayer matches

Not for you if...

−you want solo play or opponents controlled by AI
−you prefer predefined attacks to designing your own arsenal
