About the game
Play as Veil, a hooded rebel infused with the cataclysmic energy of a collapsed artificial star. Tear through the corrupt mega-nation of Giaath in Nova Slash, an intense action platformer featuring roguelike progression and lethal melee combat.
Original Steam description
THEY TRIED TO HARNESS A STAR. THEY CREATED THEIR OWN EXTINCTION.
In the tyrannical mega-country of Giaath, absolute power is forged through ruthless scientific cruelty. Seeking cosmic supremacy, the government harvested stellar remnants to build an artificial star using political prisoners as human test subjects for cosmic-scale weaponry.
You are Noven, a former militia leader sentenced to life for defying the regime. When a catastrophic lab failure caused the artificial star to collapse, Noven absorbed its dying cosmic radiation, surviving the blast that vaporized everything for miles. Reborn from the epicenter as Veil, you step out of the fallout armed with stellar power and a singular mission: complete retribution.
