## What is Pixeo?

PIXEO is a retro-style pixel art guessing game that challenges your pattern recognition and quick thinking. Each round, a fuzzy pixelated image slowly sharpens - from a mysterious mosaic of chunky squares to a crisp, NES-style reveal. Your job? Guess what’s hiding in the pixels before it’s too late.

Guess early, score big. Wait too long and your points melt away.

HOW TO PLAY
Every round starts with a blurry, low-resolution image. Pick the right answer from four choices to rack up points, but the longer you wait, the lower your score drops. 
Three wrong guesses and it’s game over. Simple to pick up, hard to put down.

GO HYPER
Nail three correct guesses while the image is still blurry to unlock HYPER-FOCUS mode. 
You'll trigger a 2x score multiplier that lights up the screen and kicks the music into overdrive. 
Stay sharp and ride the streak as long as you can.

RETRO TO THE CORE
Designed to look and feel like a classic 1980s handheld LCD console. PIXEO features authentic pixel fonts, NES-style color palettes, and scanline overlays. 
Every detail is crafted for maximum nostalgia with modern puzzle game polish.

ORIGINAL CHIPTUNE SOUNDTRACK
No static audio files here, every sound is synthesized in real-time. Experience pure NES energy with a soundtrack that speeds up as the rounds get harder. Every correct answer and game over melody is built from scratch to react to your performance.

COMPETE GLOBALLY
Think you have top-tier pixel recognition skills? Your high scores are submitted to Game Center leaderboards so you can prove your status against players worldwide.
