NEONFERNO
Read full descriptionHide full description
A gothic cathedral in ruins, lit by neon. You have twelve minutes. NEONFERNO is a survivor-style action roguelike built for one thumb. Your guns fire themselves — every decision you make is a movement decision. ■ THREE BOSS CHECKS, ONE RUN At 4:00 the Ribs come down. At 8:00 the Knell splits. At 12:00 the Mother arrives, and the run ends with her. No endless grind, no filler — every run is a twelve-minute arc with three walls to break through. ■ MOVEMENT IS THE WHOLE GAME Attacks are automatic, so the tension lives in where you stand. Run from the horde, or push into it — elites drop the affixes you need, and the altars that upgrade you sit in the worst place on the field. Fleeing is never the best move. ■ THREE HUNTERS, THREE DRONES EMBER burns. WARDEN holds. KNELL tolls. Each brings a signature drone and a private pool of skills that no other hunter can draw. ■ BUILD IT YOUR WAY Four main guns, eleven upgrade axes, four elemental states — frost, flame, blight, burst. Not every upgrade fits every gun, so each run forces a real choice instead of the same optimal path. ■ NEON GLASS, NOT PIXELS Every entity is a glowing glass polygon. No sprite sheets, no muddy filters — just hard light on black. Play offline. No account, no login, no ads, no purchases. Online leaderboards are anonymous and entirely optional.
