[h2]How to play[/h2]

• Green flask - healing. Red flask - one charge of the ability
  
• Look for and activate “improvement stations” on the location, they give you access to improved weapons
  
• On the location you will encounter 2 very strong enemies: an intermediate boss and a Titan. Defeating them will give you resources for meta pumping
  
• During the fight with Titan you must destroy his turrets. After that, try to kill one of the pilots inside the Titan. Killing all the pilots will destroy the Titan and bring you Victory
  
• After the character dies, you play as a drone. Click on the LMB to drop the health kit. Click on the mouse wheel to select the target
  
• If you can't defeat the Titan - lower the difficulty level or try upgrading your weapon, character or abilities
