Cyberpunk Neon Survivor

Neon-soaked streets. A war between dog and machine. One mech-hound against the swarm.

Cyberpunk Neon Survivor is a top-down roguelike bullet-hell where you pilot a cybernetic mech-dog against relentless waves of rogue cat-kind — feral clowders, elite affix-wielders, persistent nemeses, and city-shaking bosses. Dodge, dash, and detonate your way through escalating hordes while stacking augments into game-breaking builds… until the Eternal Sovereign humbles you all over again.

Every run is different. Every death feeds your nemesis. Every wave is a fresh gamble.

Key Features

8 Playable Mech-Hounds + Random Pick inspired by my pup, Dunkin! Start with Iron Hound, Neon Striker, and Void Reaver, then grind kill-milestones to unlock Shadow Fang, Acid Phantom, Thunderclaw, Voidwalker, and the legendary Golden Seraph. Each hero brings its own signature ability — Frag Charge, Rebound Rounds, Shockwave Slam, or EMP Grenade — plus unique stats and silhouette.

20 Augments + Evolving Arsenal Pick augment mods mid-wave to reshape your build. Stack fire rate, damage, magnet range, dash cooldown, HP, armor, and more. Unlock weapon evolutions and combine them into a walking singularity.

11 Enemy Archetypes + Elite Affixes Face Sparkcoil Hunters, Holo-Fangs, Ironjaw Sentinels, Velvet Shadows, Plasma Lashes, Rustblade Berserkers, Tactical Ghosts, Neon Rippers, Corebreakers, Fractal Wraiths, and skittering Bionic Feral Squirrels. Elites roll random affixes — Teleporter, Shielded, Splitter, Berserker — and can appear as "beefy" glowing variants at any time.

Boss Every 10 Waves — Eternal Sovereign at Wave 60 Five signature bosses rotate through waves 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 — Iron Claw, Hellfire Panther, Frozen Heart, Cosmic Devourer, and Arctic Sovereign. Survive them all to face the final cyber-cat king, the Eternal Sovereign, at wave 60. Push into Endless and the full cycle repeats, with the Sovereign returning every 60th wave, stronger each time.

Persistent Nemesis System When an enemy kills you, that specific cat becomes your personal nemesis — returning wave after wave, stronger each time, until you put it down. Random nemesis mini-bosses also stalk you every 10 waves starting at wave 15.

 Special Encounters
