In NeonXSZ (pronounced Neon Excesses) you are injected into cyberspace to stake your place in a war of virus verses machine. During your journey you will fly dozens of spaceships with hundreds of upgrades allowing you to create totally unique spacecraft with which to wage war. Will you protect the operating system or join the infection to bring it down? NeonXSZ is our little homage to Descent combined with the frenetic adrenaline pumping feel and gameplay mechanics of Quake. Then add Diablo's loot explosions, rpg elements, leveling up, procedurally generated environments and enemies. Finish it all off with truly open-world gameplay inside a micro ecosystem of up to one thousand unique little AI dudes buzzing around getting into fights and doing their own thing. In NeonXSZ, gamespeed, enemy damage and enemy intelligence are all customizable to suit everyone from a complete novice through to the most elite hardcore 6DoF veteran.
When I first looked at this game I found it intriguing. The gameplay itself reminds me of something like Aquanox. The visuals themselves are very nice to look at. What I really liked was the fact that you could custimize all the colors of your ship and select different presets for the game world itself. There are also many upgrades. There are various upgrades that can increase rate of fire or increase damage to a certain weapon, around 8 different primary weapons, ship hulls, upgrades to increase your ship's durability and several missles types. All of these upgrades can be obtained by simply blowing up baddies and collecting their materials. Another feature I found interesting was the ability to pause time and interact with the various cockpit buttons. I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys casual action in cockpit and extensive ship customization with some other interesting features. Looking foward to future updates devs!
