History VideoGame / NeonXSZ

* MixAndMatch: Think of ''{{VideoGame/Descent}}'' and ''{{VideoGame/Diablo}}'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY having a baby]], this game is the result.

* SpiritualSuccessor: Primarily to ''{{VideoGame/Descent}}'', although given the cyberpunk setting, the game could also be a successor to the more modern ''{{VideoGame/Retrovirus}}''.

The game can be found on Desura [[http://www.desura.com/games/neonxsz here]], while the Steam version can be found [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/296010/ here]].

* DynamicLoading: The game minimises the time spent doing nothing while the game loads by having the game's details gradually fade in on loading the game up, allowing the player to get going while the game populates the current station with friendly and hostile [=NPCs=].

* ILoveNuclearPower: Uranium is used currently as the main power source for every ship. It also doubles as FictionalCurrency.

* GottaCatchThemAll: This game has [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters Loads and Loads of Spaceships]] for you to collect as you kill countless new ones in your wake. Or you can just [[BribingYourWayToVictory buy them all in Uranium]].

* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler:You get to pull this off yourself when you decided to switch sides with the Viruses then going back to the Operating System. YouBastard.]]

** Difficulty can be customized accordingly, if you want enemies to deal massive damage but [[PowerfulButInaccurate too stupid to hit a side of a barn]], deal little damage as possible but is smart enough to pull off a DeathOfAThousandCuts or simply being HarderThanHard.

* CharacterLevel: An interesting variation appears in this game. The player's "tech level" only goes up the more upgrades are applied to their ship's components. Levels in between whole numbers to two decimal places are counted as well.

* DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist: Or at least a slight deduction from your Uranium total.

* EvilIsBurningHot: Areas controlled by The Virus occasionally have areas with flames coming out of them.

** Not to mention that one of the ships looks nearly identical to Descent's player ship, a worthy nod.
* TronLines: As you'd expect in a game set in cyberspace.

* ComputerVoice: Notifications come through a monotone voice that speaks one word at a time. One instance of one of these notifications is the above BossWarningSiren example.

* FictionalCurrency: Uranium.

The idea is thatthe player plays as an "anomaly" inside one of several gigantic cybernetic space stations, where a constant war is being fought between four factions allied on two teams - the OS and Antivirus, and the Malware and Viruses. The player is tasked with piloting their ship through various territories at their own leisure, shoot down ships to gain data fragments, which eventually lead to nice, shiny upgrades for their ship. In the center of the station are a number of gateways to various "challenge arenas", where one can fight off an assortment of hostile ships while navigating their way through the possibly maze-like arena, before turning the arena over to the faction of their choice.
