About Neon Blade
Neon Blade is an arcade game where you sling a glowing blade through a dark synthwave arena. The blade leaves your character, slices through targets, and curves back like a boomerang — your job is to time the throw and the return.
Score climbs when you hit multiple targets on a single throw. The arena drifts and rotates, so the same throw rarely works twice. The visuals are stark, the soundtrack drives the run, and matches are over fast.
How to play
Aim by dragging away from the character, release to throw. The blade curves back automatically — catch it before throwing again.

Tips & tricks
- Throw across the path of two or more targets instead of straight at one.
- Catching the blade resets your throw — don't ignore the return.
- Curved throws score higher than straight ones because they cover more arena.
- Most levels last seconds; reset early when a throw misses.
- Stay near the centre. The blade curves back to where you are, not where you threw from.
