## What is Neon Shift?

Neon Shift is a one-thumb arcade runner built on a single rule: your ship glows in one of two colours, and so does every barrier racing toward you. Match the colour and you pass straight through it. Get it wrong and the run is over.

Swipe left or right to change lane. Tap anywhere to switch colour. That is the whole control scheme, and you will need both within the first ten seconds.

Every barrier you match scores, and it raises a multiplier that climbs to ×8 — but the multiplier also drives the speed, so a good run makes itself harder. Slip past a whole row without matching anything and you keep your life but lose the streak. Surviving is easy. Scoring is not.

What you get
• A single-rule arcade game that takes five seconds to learn
• Swipe-and-tap controls built for one thumb
• A difficulty curve that never stops rising, including full rows where the only way out is the colour switch
• A global leaderboard shared with every other player
• A neon soundtrack you can switch off any time

No account needed
The whole game is open with no account at all, for as long as you like. An account is free and optional: it saves your high score off the phone, puts you on the leaderboard, and carries your cosmetics and supporter badge across every Neon Labs game, including the ones we ship next.

No ads. No tracking. No nonsense.
The whole game is free to play, start to finish. No banner ads, no full-screen interruptions, no data harvesting. What you install is the game and nothing else.

Optional extras — cosmetic only
If you want to make the run your own, there are three extra colour palettes — Cyber Gold, Matrix and Sunset Drive — two more ship hulls, two particle trails, and an extra soundtrack pack. All seven cosmetics are also sold together in one discounted bundle. You can also leave a tip to support development. Everything you can buy is optional and purely cosmetic: nothing changes how a run plays out, no cosmetic makes a barrier easier to read, and there is no pay-to-win, ever.

Part of the Neon Network
Neon Shift is the newest game from Neon Labs, a tiny independent studio making simple, beautiful, ad-free games. One account works across the whole Neon Network, so the one you already use for Neon XO and Neon Comet works here too — and it carries over to every game we ship next.

Two colours. Three lanes. Zero ads.
