Neon Crush

Neon Crush is a slick, one-finger arcade game. Glide the glowing Core through an endless neon storm: collect blue orbs to refill your shield, crush pink orbs for big points, and survive phase shifts while bosses dive in for massive rewards. Easy to learn, dangerously replayable, built to run at 60 FPS on phones and desktop.

How to play

• Drag anywhere to move the Core.

• Blue (💙) = shield/health. Touch to heal and charge your boost streak.

• Pink (💗) = score. Higher risk, higher reward.

• Boss (👑) = multi-hit target with a huge bonus on defeat.

• Boost system: build blue streaks to trigger ⚡ Overdrive (damage reduction), then promote to 🚀 Hyperdrive (brief invincibility & extra boss damage).

• Keep your combo climbing by chaining crushes—don’t let it decay!

Features

• ⚡ Tight one-finger controls (mouse, touch, trackpad).

• 🚀 Two-stage boost: Overdrive (mitigation) → Hyperdrive (invincible burst, higher boss damage).

• 👑 Periodic boss encounters for score spikes; boss kills grant a heal.

• 💙 Sustainable healing: higher blue value, plus a Blue “pity” system during boss/low HP; blue burst spawns when a boss appears.

• 🛡️ Shield pickups for clutch recoveries.

• 🌈 Crisp neon visuals with motion trails & glow, balanced for readability.

• 🧠 Local leaderboard (auto-saves top runs).

• 🔊 Minimal retro bleeps (WebAudio, throttled; optional).

• 📱 Pure HTML5 — runs in modern desktop & mobile browsers.

• 🧘 Calm Mode toggle for reduced glow/particles/shake (default on mobile).

Modes & pacing

• Endless survival with phase shifts that subtly increase speed, density, and color mix.

• Blue spawn ratio tapers over time but never disappears; pity boosts kick in when needed.

• Soft difficulty caps keep late-game chaotic but fair.

• Boss TTK scales with skill: combo + Overdrive/Hyperdrive increase boss hit damage.

Controls

• Touch/Mouse: drag to move.

• P: pause (desktop).

Performance

• Optimized canvas rendering; scales to device pixel ratio (DPR).

• Calm Mode/low-power path reduces glow, particles, trails, and shake on weak hardware.

• Audio events are throttled to avoid spam and save battery.
