Community Insight:
Short review but everyone here is right, very very good game.
We really enjoyed this game and hope there will be a sequel.
Way better than we expected. Great game once you accept the idea of your character dying in order to improve next round. Easily worth the money. PS. This is more frantic than Space Marshals, and about on par with Halo for brainless enjoyment. We like all these games, but find Neon Chrome is the most addictive of them all.
Hey guys in your game description for the arena dlc it mentions coop 1-4 players, does it actually work, or is that just the pc and ps4 versions.
The game is stuck in a small box in the bottom left corner. We have reinstalled the app and rebooted our phone. Any suggestions would be great, the gameplay looks really cool.
This is like a newer Robokill style combat setup survival game! Exactly what we were looking for. Lots of replay-ability and every game is randomly generated, so its an addicting new adventure every time.
Game is unplayable, resolution very low on 3rd gen IPad Pro, NOT optimized for new devices, interesting that you can just plain lie and accept payment. Do not buy if you have a new device, just break out the sega genesis and hook it into an 80s projection screen tv and youll get same result.
The game is truly fabulous, but the newest update doesnt add support for the iPhone X. The game is not full screen. After reinstalling the game to see if the newest update Finally supported full screen on modern iPhones, we found that our progress was lost. Apparently they dont utilize iCloud for game saves.
Currently at OS 21, most fun we have had with a top-down shooter in a long time. Smoothly operating, relatively trouble-free game. Thanks.
Game is awesome but we really want Apple TV support badly with iCloud syncing/ come devs lets turn this game into a console game.
This game has everything a simple mobile port needs. Easy controls, addictive gameplay loop, and a clear objective to guide you forward. Everything is randomized so no two runs are ever the same which keeps things fresh for awhile. And there is still enough complexity where you wont turn your brain off completely since this game is still very challenging and you are guaranteed to die a dozen times before you get the grasp of things. Overall for the price Id say its worth it and it has enough content to please our small brain :) Hope this helps or something we dont really care, eat a bagel dipped in mustard or whatever.
120 hz support for 13 pro and the addition of mods just like the PC version.
Neon Chrome is one the best roguelite twin-stick shooters. It works great with a Nimbus controller and iPad Pro. Epic.
We never write reviews. However, this game is good enough that we made an exception. Very solid game.
So much fun our fingers are burning but we love it.
Worth price of admission for sure.
Pros Engaging and very fun game with good controls. Can save and exit game at each level. Permanent incremental upgrades from previous runs credits. Meaningful enhancements. Variety of weapons. Cons How upgrades work is not explained well. What we've learned so far is you can purchase an unlocked upgrade to start your next run. Tips: Turn down graphics to low to save battery and prevent phone heating!! The health regen class is very good at staying alive. The enhancement to give increasing credits at each floor gives huge dividends.
This is one of those games that crosses the line of "Mobile Game" and can take the claim of "Great Game". Can't go wrong with getting this game.
This game is awesome, evolution of retro games like Project Overkill. Keep up the great dev.
Easily the best twin stick shooter we've played on iOS. RPG aspects really give it playable longevity.
Just started today but seems pretty fun so far.
Love the cyberpunk setting and the persistent stats. Great game with some serious depth. Well worth it.
This game is fantastic. Great controls, some of the best on screen controls we've used. Very unique graphics, tons of little details too like spent bullet casings littering the ground after a huge firefight. Great progression system, cool weapons, smooth gameplay, intriguing levels and story. This game is a must buy for anyone who takes gaming seriously on their iOS device.
Get it!! Totally worth it, love it so far.
This game is a brilliant top down twin sticks shooter. Mind you we are not a huge fan of that genre but after reading it's sweet but short summary we decided for its price it seems in depth for what it is limited to. We would have spent even more on this game. We plan on getting it for our PC. It's incorporated shading, visibility, ability upgrades, progressive dungeon crawling, weapons, stealth, or loud gameplays, with nearly infinite playability. We hope to see more from them in regards to customizing and button placement. As of now we feel like there aren't enough classes. We feel like there could be more. As a new game it is great. It needs to be updated but we have a feeling they will listen to their fans.
This game controls soooo much better than we expected. It's also insanely addictive.
Great rogue light for real gamers.
Better than we imagined! Robotron 2084 combined with Blade Runner and The Matrix. Worth $20! Buy it now.
We've missed a good dual stick shooter and this fits the bill.
Well worth the cost…..challenging levels and fun, fun, fun.
Despite the endless deaths of your "assets" it's a fun game overall.
We are so very tired of all the games being free to get and then pay to advance. This game is GREAT! Being that there are no in-app buys, you can actually enjoy making progress by learning the game and getting better at it! Plus you can play it on the plane (or anywhere with or without WiFi. The game play is elegant, fun and easy to use. Lasers, rockets, grenades, machine based plasma rifles!!!! It full awesomeness.
Solid controls, great visuals, steady rewards, and fair roguelike elements make this a great purchase on any platform. Don't miss the sale.
We're seriously so glad we got this on a half off sale. It said it may be clunky because of how old our phone is (5c), but with the graphic settings set to low it works great. If it's still on sale, oh should seriously get it while it's cheap(er).
Good top down shooter, good controls, and great level up system. Recommend buying.
Just started playing, couldn't stop till we beat the whole game. (Awesome).
Definitely worth 5 dollars. Interesting storyline and fun gameplay. One complaint is that the controls are really sensitive.
One of our favorite twin shooter games on iOS. Isotope is still our favorite, but this comes in at number two.
Buy this game you won't regret it at all.
Hosing baddies with a zillion different weapons while racing through an uber-Tron universe is so much fun.
This game is brilliant, top quality twin stick shooter.
It's like our body's developed this massive Neon Chrome deficiency.
Please add co-op we know it's brand new but please try to have it soon!! We do love this game so much it's amazing.
Amazing gameplay, fun and addicting.
We've only been playing this for a little while now and we can already tell it's going to be addicting! The controls are smooth, we haven't found any lags, and the music and graphics are awesome.
We already bought this game on PS4 but we needed a copy for our iPad too. We're a huge fan of twin stick shooters and this is one of the best. Our favorite parts are: a stealth component, destructible walls/cover, and upgrades that carryover between runs. Ridiculously great replay value (we sound like an ad). Visuals and music are similar to Far Cry, Blood Dragon or perhaps Hotline Miami. Lots of goodies the more you keep playing. We predict this game will be featured in a month or two.
Don't know if we'd have the patience for this on console but amazing for when we're waiting around in real life.
It is what it looks like. Give it a go.
Awesome and engaging game. Really well done and polished.
There is some room for improvement but not bad.
