Plox Neon

Desert Owl Games is a small studio with a number of successful projects, like a card game The Huntsman: Winter’s Curse. Plox Neon is their another, arcade project.

Mechanics

The rules are simple. You control a colourful, ball-shaped entity, which leaves marks as it goes. In this way, you select fragments of levels that you want to get rid of, together with enemies on them. However, gameplay of Neon Plox is much more complex than it would seem, because opponents – initially sluggish and predictable – are constantly replaced with their more and more demanding incarnations. Some of them are chaotic, some are fast, other are long, which makes them difficult to avoid. Each with an enemy results in an immediate death. Also, the hero is outnumbered, so the player needs to destroy enemies and elements of levels patiently, piece by piece.
