Neon Chrome gets tedious. Same songs played too often, the bosses aren't particularly interesting, the antagonist likes to monologue. and you've basically seen all there is after a few hours. There's no quickdodge-like mechanic, so combat is a fairly basic experience of walking around shooting and trying not to get shot. There are moments when there's no way to avoid damage, and combat is punishing enough that I found myself favoring a specific style. Alot of the upgrades I found early on didn't support this style or were the most predictable health, speed, healing, and melee upgrades you could imagine.

The game is fine, the story doesn't matter, and the experience is probably worth the most on sale.
