Story Setting
In the year 2053, after World War III, humanity has been reduced to a single macropolis, Viridis, composed of two cities: the luxurious Bright City and the dystopian Blind City.
Axel McCoin, a detective from Blind City, driven by his ideals, rebels against the injustices caused by the social separation between the two cities and the general social inequalities, becoming a symbol of a revolution.
In his adventure, Axel will encounter powerful allies who will aid him in his quest, as well as enemies who will stand in his way, such as Ruby Emerald, who will do everything possible to thwart Axel's plans.
Features
Elaborate and Deep Storyline: Neon Blood features a rich and deep story with a cyberpunk theme, guiding the player through Axel's journey marked by the relationships he forms throughout his adventure, revealing the different realities of the two cities.
Distinct 2.5D Aesthetic: The game employs 2D pixel art sprites with 3D modeled environments, maintaining a visual distinction between the flat characters and the deep environment.
