NEON PROTOCOL
NEON PROTOCOL — TEST BUILD
You're a tiny antivirus deep inside a dying server. Hundreds of viruses are coming. Your weapons fire on their own: you move, dodge and collect.
Each level-up, pick one upgrade out of three. Sometimes one is CORRUPTED: twice as strong, with a nasty flaw. The more you corrupt, the more the game breaks (glitches, mutating enemies, pop-ups, blue screen) and the higher your score climbs, up to x5.
CONTROLS
- Move: WASD / ZQSD / arrows, hold the mouse, or drag your finger (mobile)
- Weapons fire automatically
- Pick a card: 1 / 2 / 3 or click
- Pause: Esc or P (pause button on mobile)
- Mute: M
- Gamepad supported
THIS IS A TEST VERSION
- Browser: Sector 1 demo, playable right here
- Android (APK), Windows and Linux: full game (3 sectors + Endless mode)
- Linux build has not been tested yet
WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU (in the comments)
- Was it fun? Did you want "one more run"?
- Too easy / too hard? Where did you die?
- How far did you push the Corruption?
- Any bug, freeze or performance issue (tell us your device)
Contains flashing lights and glitch effects: they can be turned off in Options.

VERSION DE TEST (FR) : déplace-toi, esquive, ramasse ; tes armes tirent seules. Les cartes corrompues sont deux fois plus fortes mais ont un défaut. Dis-nous en commentaire si c'est fun, trop dur ou trop facile, jusqu'où tu as poussé la Corruption, et tout bug rencontré (avec ton appareil). Flashs et glitchs désactivables dans les options.

Install instructions
ANDROID (APK)
1. Download the .apk on your phone.
2. Open it. Android will ask to allow installs from this source: allow it.
3. Install, then launch NEON PROTOCOL. Play in landscape.
Already installed an older test version? Just install over it.
WINDOWS (portable .exe)
No installation: download and double-click.
Windows SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC" because the game isn't signed yet: click "More info" then "Run anyway".
Your saves are kept between versions.
LINUX (.tar.gz) — not tested yet
Extract the archive, then run the "neon-protocol" file inside the folder (make it executable if needed: chmod +x neon-protocol).
BROWSER
Nothing to install: click "Run game" on this page. Works best in Chrome, Edge or Firefox. Use the fullscreen button at the bottom right.
