Character Development
Use your looted credits to permanently improve your stats like health, luck and damage. Your character also improves with guns and cybernetics during a run. Visit your nearest upgrade station and select from a choice of over four dozen enhancements. The enhancements range from health and protection improvements to defense and assault systems - and far beyond.
No Two Paths Are Alike
After each death the game will generate a completely new path always ending in a final showdown. The Overseer controlling everything trusts his obedient minions to end your journey before you reach him. Your path will be a mix of randomly generated futuristic environments and hand crafted challenges.
Before each run you choose one of three randomized "assets". The asset is a unique combination of class, weapon, and ability. Each one a bit different - everyone as good as dead. They will have all your permanent stat improvements in addition to their original qualities. The sneaky assassin with mines or the robust corp soldier with incendiary grenades? The choice is up to you.
Bring Down the World Around You
Almost everything in Neon Chrome can be destroyed with weapons or cybernetic abilities. You’ll shoot through walls, make rooms explode, and obliterate whole floors while blasting your way through the building.
Overcome the latest killing solutions ranging from armed security to lethal assault drones and cyborgs. The building hosts a small army and even devastating military robots. To make your way to the top you also need to overcome handcrafted combat and puzzle challenges.
Co-Op
If your friends would like to help you bringing down the Overseer Neon Chrome supports 2-4 players in shared screen local co-op!
Death Is Your Destination
Armed with your skills, weapons, and cybernetic abilities you’ll have a fighting chance of stopping the Overseer. Go on, venture into the Neon Chrome and remember: Death is always a new procedurally generated beginning.
I originally found this game on Xbox Gamepass. It's awesome if you're looking for something to pass the time, or if you don't want to get to involved. Sometimes I'm not in the right frame of mind to be fully involved in an RPG and just want something similar to an old arcade shooter that doesn't require too much thinking, just reflexes.
The graphics are great, controls are smooth and the soundtrack harkens to all that cyberpunk snythwave kind of stuff.
I keep coming back to it.
Decent gameplay loop, fun progressing and getting stronger. You understand your deaths and what you should've done differently, usually it's because you get too greedy. The gunplay feels pretty nice, I liked the top down shooter angle better than I thought I would.
The UI sucks in a few areas.
The reticule is red, the aim line is red, every version of grenades are red, explosions are red, fire is red, several different gun munitions come out red. It's hard to see your red reticule, no reason not to have the ability to customize it so you can see it better. I wouldn't say this game is a bullet hell, but later on when the density is so high it becomes a bullet hell, and it's hard to see where you're shooting.
They did a lousy job with the perks/enhancement symbols. Every time you die and start over, you can buy some enhancements if you can afford it. Their symbols barely differentiate from each other. It's hard to find particular enhancements when you try new builds. They should have just had a list with the names, it would have been a lot easier to recognize/remember the names of perks rather than trying to remember what particular symbol it has.
I got the deluxe because I prefer buying the OST with my games, but I muted the in game music and played my own. Lot of amazing synthwave artists out there, one email away from doing a killer album for your game, but instead you opt for this incredibly generic forgettable background noise. Geer does have quite the catalog of albums, but this isn't even close to Katana Zero for example. I tend to look for at least 1 track that makes the album worth it but none sparked my interest.
Other than that, it's pretty solid. I have 27 hours played, and I'm just kind of done with it. I am on overseer level 7 I think, and no motivation to continue climbing the difficulties. You have max weapons pretty much every restart but they feel weak already. The climb in difficulty is mostly a power creep. Still recommend.
