Neon Horde
SteamAbout Neon Horde
One arena. Fifteen minutes. A thousand ways to turn the screen into light.
NEON HORDE is an arcade-style action survivor: you move, your weapons fire on their own, and the screen erupts into a neon lightshow as geometric hordes close in from every direction. Survive to minute 15 and win the run — or die trying and come back stronger, because in this game even the time you spend away is working for you.
⚡ THE LOOP — 15 minutes of escalating chaos
•
Move with WASD. That's it. Your weapons aim and fire automatically.
•
Grab XP gems, level up, pick 1 of 3: a new weapon, a weapon upgrade, or a passive.
•
Every minute the horde gets denser — speeders, armored tanks, splitters, healers, shielded wardens, teleporting phantoms and elite stars join the hunt.
•
Massive bosses crash the arena — each with its own attack pattern. Kill them, crack open their chests.
•
Fill the NEON SURGE meter and unleash a screen-nuking shockwave when you're cornered.
🔮 14 WEAPONS, 14 EVOLUTIONS — the power spike everything builds toward
•
Every weapon has its own unique, screen-clearing EVOLUTION.
•
The recipe: max-level weapon + the matching passive + a boss chest.
•
Arcane Pulse becomes PULSAR. Blades become A THOUSAND BLADES. Shards go GOLDEN NOVA. Lightning becomes TEMPEST.
•
14 weapons + 12 passives = dozens of viable builds. Hunting down every evolution is the long game.
🦾 FIVE HEROES — pick your playstyle, then master it
•
VECTOR (the balance), BRUTUS (the wall), VOLT (the lightning), MAGNA (the greed), NYX (the glass cannon).
•
Each hero has a unique signature ability and is unlocked by pushing deeper into the game.
•
Every hero levels 0→100 with XP farmed each run — permanent mastery that makes them hit harder forever.
🌙 IDLE — get stronger in your sleep
•
Close the game and your Neon Generator keeps minting coins for up to 8 hours.
•
Your offline rate scales with your BEST run ever: play better, earn faster.
•
Come back, claim the stash, invest it in permanent upgrades. Zero guilt, pure progress.
⭐ ENDLESS DEPTH — reasons to keep playing for weeks
•
ASCEND (Prestige): reset your shop for a permanent, stacking power boost — the classic idle prestige loop. Every Ascension also raises your upgrade ceiling: the only way further up is to start over stronger.
•
PROFILE LEVEL: an account level that adds up EVERYTHING you've done — kills, runs, bosses, achievements, ascensions, hero mastery. Your whole career in one number.
•
36 achievements, several unlocking new heroes and fat coin rewards.
•
3 game modes: Normal (15-min run with a real win), Boss Rush, and Endless.
•
4 difficulties from Easy to Nightmare — the horde bites HARD when you turn it up.
•
4 neon stages and a bestiary of enemies, each with its own behavior.
🏪 PERMANENT SHOP — progress that never resets
•
11 permanent upgrades: health, damage, speed, fire rate, extra projectile, armor, regen, magnet, greed...
•
PHOENIX: buy yourself a second chance — revive once per run.
•
NEON GENERATOR: crank up your offline earnings and turn time itself into power.
🪟 WIDGET MODE — the game that plays in the corner of your screen
•
Shrink NEON HORDE into a tiny always-handy window and let it farm coins while you work, browse or watch.
•
The true idle experience: your neon arena, minimized, forever grinding.
📖 A STORY WORTH SURVIVING FOR
•
An animated, narrated intro tells the tale of the GRID, the HORDE that eats the light, and the five VECTORS born to hold the dark back. Skippable, replayable, and told across the whole run.
