Neon Drive came out on May 12th, and 2 weeks later a patch addressed some big complaints, including fixing synchronisation of sound and vision - an awfully important feature for any kind of rhythm game. You can test if you are susceptible to the same virus on SoundCloud.

They're also praising the soundtrack, because there's just no cure for some fevers. Steam reviews are actually quite positive overall, mostly praising the difficulty of the challenge and going 'kids, these days' like an '80s person should. There's a Transformers-themed side-scroller, 2D Grand Theft Auto, and finally Super Hexagon with a plane. There's standard Audiosurf-perspective dodging, there's an actual top-down shmup, that scene from The Fifth Element, and one in which you run from evil neon rays. There are several modes, and though they all amount to the same thing - avoid obstacles in sync with the music - they're different enough to challenge your spatial awareness in distinct ways. The devs are even handing out Certificates of Superhuman Abilities to whoever manages to collect all the achievements. That's about the kind of scenario that could give birth to Neon Drive a tough-as-nails rhythm game in which you need to use your car (or plane) to avoid obstacles. So they dance like they come from out of this world, and leave the real one far behind. They're playing Europe, obnoxiously loud, and the best dancer will win an actual DeLorean. Except they realize the bar is a disco, and it's having a Tron-themed party.

Super Hexagon and Audiosurf walk into a bar.
