What is NanoApostle?

NanoApostle is a 2D action game set in a research facility. As Anita, a girl implanted with a sentient nanomechanical entity, you dodge and parry attacks, slash or fire projectiles at prototype bio-weapons, and exploit their weak points in multi-stage boss fights. Combat and challenge stages earn you skill points as Anita tries to escape.
