Love synth & rhythm games, but to the developers... PLEASE ADD AN UP & DOWN BUTTON FOR SOME LEVELS! I get panicky & forget which way is up or down when I'm forced to only use left & right.

This game is both really chill & relaxing, but also has the ability to make you really lock in and time your driving perfectly. Good way to kill some time and vibe out to some good music too

I love it. The visuals are exactly what i imagined back in the nineties when i thought about the "cyberspace". Driving around in virtual worlds in neon cars, everthing glows, the visuals are amazing i think. I also like a lot of the music tracks, so no complaints on the audio tab. Controls are really simple, you just have to go right and left and dodge the obstacles, which also makes it a simple game to kill some time. Which doesn't mean this game is easy.... oh heck nooo. DAMN YOU LEVEL 5 I WILL GET MY STARS!!!

So, what is Neon Drive?? Neon Drive is a arcade game where you dodge different obsticles with a transforming vehicle most based on the rhythm. It has a standard difficulty and 2 harder difficultys that increases the speed and music what makes it even tighter to make the inputs right. Controls are simple: Use Left and right (A & D) to move the vehicle. For horizontal stages right is up and left is down that may be proven difficulty for some players. Aspects of Neon Drive!! Neat visuals that changes with each levels and playstyles inside levels Great music that still holds up to this day A few options to costumice the game (not much) like disabling checkpoints And atlast a endurance run where you go trough all 8 levels without crashing and increased speed after 1 round Fazit?!? Neon drive seems difficulty at first but as the saying goes: YOU GET BETTER THE MORE YOU TRY!! Would I recommend the game?? Absolutly!! It does not seem much and there havnt been any updates, BUT it's still worth to have in the library. With that, I will say: Decide for yourself if you give it a try or not For my part, I am happy to have bought it and looking forward for future games if the team ever decide to make another game or a sequel to Neon Drive.
