How co-op works
Local co-op shooter where two players share one screen and work together to fight through procedurally generated floors, destroying walls and enemies with weapons and cybernetic abilities while managing shared resources and upgrades.
About this game
Neon Chrome is a top-down shooter built around procedural generation and persistent progression. Each run sends players into a new layout of rooms and corridors inside a cyberpunk tower, where the goal is to stop the Overseer at the top. Death is permanent for each attempt, but upgrades carry forward between runs.

Gameplay revolves around blasting through destructible walls, taking cover, and using both conventional firearms and cybernetic abilities to clear enemies. Players install perks from cyber chambers scattered throughout each floor, adding temporary boosts that last only for the current run. Environmental destruction opens shortcuts and reveals hidden paths, rewarding aggressive play.
After each death, accumulated credits and experience unlock permanent stat improvements and new starting characters with different loadouts. The procedural structure ensures no two runs feel identical, and the upgrade loop provides a steady sense of progression even when a run ends early. Couch co-op lets two players tackle the tower together on a shared screen.
