About Neon River
Long into future there are no heroes or villains, no stolen princesses or fearsome dragons, no priests to disturb or burning witches to put ot of fire, yet there is one thing to have: fun. Endless battles in endlessly generated worlds is the main thing you will find in this rouguelite bullet hell. Fight your way through, live as much as you can or just have fun, die and restart.
Once your cross the riverline - the timer begins to tick, and your goal is to fight as well as you can until the time runs out. The world itself is infinitely generated, so you will never have problems with finding new battles and treasures, but the futher from the starting line you go - the harsher it gets.
One of the most important mechanics (aside from running and shooting) is timer: you start with some time, and every moment you play a lottery: advance further and get more treasure and more time, taking risk of finding none, or turn back and return to the starting line safely? The choice is yours.
Inspired by 80-s arcade masterpieces, such as robotron and bubbles, this game gives you nothing but a pure gameplay with no distractions.

This is a fast-paced and tough shooter with only one mode, randomly generated map, and serious lag issues. There is a time limit, so you need to move quickly. The goal is to continue moving forward while keeping your finger on the trigger and grabbing everything that can help you. The most common goods are coin rocks, which must be destroyed by shooting at them. Other goods, such time extensions and health, will be found in larger deposits. Depending on your luck, you may encounter them frequently or almost never. Because of the extreme difficulty, you must begin moving immediately after pressing the start button. The game uses random spawns, which are largely unfair because you can die when two homing bullets hit you before you can move. Enemies need several shots to kill, so it’s almost pointless to shoot at them. The only way to win is to be lucky with weapon upgrades. This is acquired from something that resembles a little pool and is difficult to see. Unfortunately, the game has a significant lag issue that makes it unplayable. Shooting with the base weapon is great, but once you receive the upgrade, the game cannot keep up with the mayhem and simply skips frames. Alth…2 found this helpful
