'Assault Spy' Early Access Update Adds New Character, Game Mode, Features

by Rainier on July 20, 2018 @ 1:23 a.m. PDT

Assault Spy is a stylish, fast paced, pure-action game with a dash of comedy where you dash, evade, and smash your way to the truth as the corporate spy, Asaru; or the reckless CIA agent, Amelia!

The self-proclaimed elite corporate spy Asaru and his deadweight partner Kanoko are hired for a new job in a dreary world dominated by corporations. Their mission? Infiltrate the mega corporation, Negabot.

Dash, evade, and smash your way to the truth in this fast paced action game. No secret is safe from THIS bombastic spy duo!

Uncover the dark secrets of the Negabot mega corporation as you save the company from a hostile takeover.


Assault Spy is available on Steam Early Access for $19.99. In one week, Assault Spy's Early Access price will increase to $24.99.

Assault Spy is excited to introduce its latest character: Amelia Smith! Beginning today, players will be able to play as Amelia, and practice her hardcore and powerful attacks in Dojo Mode!

New Playable Character: Agent Amelia Hits the Dojo!
The game's second playable character, Amelia, is now available to try out in Dojo Mode!

Where Asaru's playstyle involves high-speed dashing and well-timed moves, Amelia is an aggressive brawler ready to KO anyone that gets in her way. (Pretty OP, if you ask me...) Make use of the invincibility she has on her attacks and get right up in your foes' faces! Practice her moves now so you're ready to hit the ground once the full game launches!

New Mode: Death March
Death March is a mode where you fight your way through floor after floor of enemies as a timer ticks downwards.. You gain more time for each enemy you defeat, and the higher your battle rank, the more extra time you’ll get! There are no checkpoints, so if you get a Game Over or run out of time, you’ll start over from the beginning. Smash your way through battle after battle as fast and as stylishly as you can!

New Gameplay Feature: Guard Break
A new Guard meter has been added to bosses and certain tough enemies. Now, hitting these enemies from the front enough times will break their Guard, allowing you to go to town on them with your deadliest combos! However, take note that their Guard meter will regenerate shortly afterwards, so act fast!

Keyboard/Mouse Support Improved

You can now rebind keys when playing in Keyboard mode. It also supports most non-English characters as well! :)

More Dojo Mode Options

When in Dojo Mode, you can now press the Select button to call up a menu with additional options.

New Move for Asaru: Brainstorming Buster

Asaru's Y+B move has been updated from previous versions of the game.

Brainstorming Buster starts by slamming your unfortunate foe's head into the floor with a German Suplex, then rockets into the air with them, and finally drives them headfirst into the ground at high speeds (you professional spies out there may know this part as an "Izuna Drop")!

Bugs Terminated

To make for a smoother spy experience for you, more bugs have been combo'd into oblivion!

Asaru:
Asaru Vito is a self-proclaimed elite company spy.
However, because he always ends up paired with the clumsy Kanoko Yotsuba, most of his missions are failures. His performance hit rock bottom…
Just when things couldn’t get any worse, he was assigned to spy on the global mega corporation, Negabot. Even with the worst partner ever, he now has to work at a major company, so the worst has yet to begin for Asaru!

Amelia:
The company has been taken over by terrorists!?
OK, let me take a swing at them!!!

Key Features

  • Stylish Spy Action Comedy: Blast through an army of security robots and save a company that was taken over by terrorists!
  • High Speed Dash Combat: Dodge bullets with a dash, and finish off enemies with fancy combo moves!
  • Dynamic Action: Defeating enemies unlocks new moves, which can be used to chain together insane combos with stylish finishing moves!
  • One Story with Two Sides: Play through the game as the professional, yet hapless spy, Asaru; or the rowdy and reckless CIA agent, Amelia! Each character has a unique playstyle, and a story that intertwines with each other!
