Feature Spotlight - Everything Bosses!

Hey everyone,

Today we are showing off the bosses you'll battle in Neon Abyss! Each boss is a challenge but there's a few ways bosses can change as you get further through a dungeon run and as you start to evolve your dungeons.



Double Trouble




Each of the normal bosses have two versions, one for the earlier levels in your dungeon runs and then there’s the chance to battle their more challenging counterpart in the later levels.

Managers




Managers are particularly tough bosses that inhabit rooms at the end of a dungeon run. As you progress through the game and unlock more of these managers, you will be able to go through more levels on each run. Further managers will guard the next tier of these extra levels.

Upgrades and Items




Bosses are guaranteed to drop upgrades for you, your weapons and health to help face the next harder levels in the dungeon. Plus - will make you look more flashy!

That's all for this spotlight, thanks for reading, we hope you look forward to battling some of these bosses in the full version that you haven't seen in the demo dungeons!

Feature Spotlight - How to Evolve Your Dungeons!

Hey everyone,

Today we are showing off the dungeon progression in Neon Abyss! The dungeons will evolve as you play the game so that every dive into the abyss is unique.



How


To evolve your dungeon, you will need to collect tokens, these are dropped by defeating bosses and can be used at the bar to purchase: items, playable characters, extra bosses, extra dungeon rooms and even mini games to appear in your runs!

Trial Your New Toys


When you first unlock an item, for the first dungeon run directly after, you’ll be able to start with it as a trial. Be sure to make the most of these, as next time you’ll have to search for them!

Mini Games




Unlock challenging mini games that can reward your less violent talents in the dungeon. Including this tough rhythmic piano game.

New Bosses




Even unlock new bosses to extend your dungeon runs!

Unlockable Characters Spotlight

Hey everyone,

We hope you've been having a blast run 'n' gunning your way through the demo's dungeons!

In the demo you will have been playing Wade. Today we take a look at each of the unlockable characters which makes the start of each dungeon run unique.



Matt


Matt can dodge roll which evades incoming enemy projectiles whilst rolling you where you want to go.

James


One weapon isn't enough for James and playing them allows you to carry two weapons at once!

Zack


Zack loves his knives and is able to stab even when an enemy is out of his melee range.

Lucas


If you like explosions, you will like Lucas. He will let you place mines on a whim but watch out they have a random fuse timer.

Ming


Hatch them all with Ming! Start your run with two eggs plus have an increased hatch success rate with this character!

David


Items can be found in high places and David can get you there by inflating a balloon to achieve the power of flight. However, this flight is costly as you will have to pay 3 crystals to use this once in a room!

That is all of the characters we will be showing off today. We hope you are all looking forward to the release and are still having fun with the demo. Watch out for another spotlight next week here on steam.
