SURVIVE THE NIGHT
It's a Friday night in 1996. The Neon Falls strip mall is buzzing — arcade cabinets, a video rental store, a pizza parlor, a roller rink. Then lightning hits the transformer.
The cabinets come alive. Glitched monsters claw their way out of every screen. You're trapped inside, and you have until dawn.
ARCADE SURVIVORS is a fast, loud, neon-drenched bullet heaven inspired by 90s American arcade culture. You move — your weapons do the killing. Level up, build absurd combos, and hold back an endless tide of mutant cartridges, possessed handhelds, and screaming fast-food mascots across 27 maps and 27 bosses.
RADICAL WEAPONS
- 60+ weapons ripped straight from the 90s — TV Remote, Super Soaker, Disc Player, Boombox, VHS Bombs, Skateboard, and dozens more
- Weapon evolutions — max a weapon, pair it with the right passive, and unlock a screen-clearing super form
- Auto-attacking combat — you dodge, your arsenal does the rest
BUILD YOUR RUN
- 6 playable characters, each with a unique starting loadout and perk
- Dozens of passive power-ups — Roller Blades, Pizza Slice, Energy Drink, Dial-Up Connection and more
- 30 collectible pets that fight beside you
- Permanent meta upgrades between runs — get stronger every night
NEON NIGHTMARES
- Dozens of glitched enemies themed on 90s arcade junk
- 27 epic bosses with bullet-hell patterns — dodge, weave, and tear them apart
- 27 unique maps across Neon Falls and beyond, each with its own hazards
- Survive 15 minutes... if you can outlast what comes at dawn
MAXIMUM NOSTALGIA
- Synthwave + chiptune soundtrack that absolutely slaps
- Optional CRT filter for that authentic arcade-cabinet glow
- Screen shake, hit-stop, damage numbers — pure 90s arcade game feel

Be kind. Rewind. Survive the night.
