Neon Breach

NEON BREACH

You aren't building towers — you ARE the tower.

NEON BREACH is a high-octane, mobile-first Tower Defense & Strategy hybrid. Steer a combat hoverboard across a neon grid of five narrow lanes, deploy tactical slow-fields, and perform non-stop coverage triage to defend the Core from relentless drone waves!

⚡ KEY FEATURES

• Active Positioning Gameplay: You deal the primary damage. Drive your hoverboard directly into threatened lanes to unleash heavy directional firepower.
• Support Slow-Pads: Plant fixed emplacements on pads between waves. They don't kill enemies—they buy crucial time in the lanes you can't personally cover.
• Coverage Triage: 5 active lanes vs. 1 hoverboard. Read real-time, in-canvas leak timers to instantly decide which lane needs you next.
• Modular Loadouts: Choose from 4 weapons (Gatling, Plasma, Laser, Missile) with distinct counter identities, AoE properties, and 5 upgrade levels.
• Boost EMP Shockwave: Trigger your boost to dash across the field and detonate a localized EMP burst at your dash origin to freeze advancing threats.
• 100% Procedural WebAudio: Enjoy a dynamic 112 BPM synthwave soundtrack and retro arcade SFX synthesized on the fly—zero audio asset downloads.
• Instant Browser Play: Built as a single self-contained HTML5 web app. Runs offline directly in your browser or on mobile portrait screens!

🛡️ HOW TO SURVIVE
