This might be the last "beta update" - the next one may be a release candidate. In this update we added the ability to increase the stat cap by finding unlock terminals from chapters with all unlocks opened. You can also buy stats above 100 after the stat cap increases - they will be very expensive though. We also added some very special rooms and improved the explosived bullet enhancement. We also implemented GPU skinning for most actors and it is active by default. This should result in a low to moderate fps increase. We observed 2-8% with an Intel-based integrated GPU and 10-30% with a more powerful discrete GPU. At the moment some props on dead actors might be drawn incorrectly but that will be fixed soon. If GPU skinning causes any incompatibility issues, we may disable it in the future. Finally we also optimized the shadow drawing and limited dynamic lights to 4 per actor for even more FPS. The visual difference isn't noticeable but the fps should improve. The following updates will most likely contain only fixes for bugs we may find during the next couple of days. We hope to keep improving the game even after the release but the scope of that will be affected greatly by the success of the game: The bigger the audience the more resources we can spend to improve the game. Anyways, massive thanks to all beta testers so far! The game has improved a lot because of your feedback. We hope you've enjoyed the game and continue to enjoy it in the future too!

Neon Chrome was created by 10tons - the company behind the cult hit game Crimsonland.
Use your looted credits to permanently improve your stats like health, luck and damage. Your character also improves with guns and cybernetics during a run. Visit your nearest upgrade station and select from a choice of over four dozen enhancements. The enhancements range from health and protection improvements to defense and assault systems - and far beyond.
After each death the game will generate a completely new path always ending in a final showdown. The Overseer controlling everything trusts his obedient minions to end your journey before you reach him. Your path will be a mix of randomly generated futuristic environments and hand crafted challenges.
Before each run you choose one of three randomized "assets". The asset is a unique combination of role, weapon, and ability. Each one a bit different - everyone as good as dead. They will have all your permanent stat improvements in addition to their original qualities. The sneaky assassin with mines or the robust corp soldier with incendiary grenades? The choice is up to you.
Almost everything in Neon Chrome can be destroyed with weapons or cybernetic abilities. You’ll shoot through walls, make rooms explode, and obliterate whole floors while blasting your way through the building.
Overcome the latest killing solutions ranging from armed security to lethal assault drones and cyborgs. The building hosts a small army and even devastating military robots. To make your way to the top you also need to overcome handcrafted combat and puzzle challenges.
If your friends would like to help you bringing down the Overseer Neon Chrome supports 2-4 players in shared screen local co-op!
Armed with your skills, weapons, and cybernetic abilities you’ll have a fighting chance of stopping the Overseer. Go on, venture into the Neon Chrome and remember: Death is always a new procedurally generated beginning.
