Some Neon Drive levels вЂ“ which in-game are presented as arcade machines вЂ“ as stated before, features its own unique spin on the core formula. But thankfully, each and every in-game level features its own unique spin on the basic rhythm-based mechanic, meaning that there is simply no room for boredom to creep in. Initially, the core gameplay mechanics may seem archaic as well as monotone, as avoiding simple obstacles on hours at a time, may bore one to death.

However, the difficulty in the end doesnвЂ™t come from the overall speed, but the fact that вЂHardвЂ™ tracks disallow one from respawning, meaning that upon failure, one has to restart the entire level. And depending on the difficulty, both the obstacles as well as the soundtrack become more intense, as they come at the player controlled vehicles and a much higher, average pace. The core gameplay mechanic, is centred around avoiding obstacles by moving left and right to the beat of a song, which is playing in the background of each track. However, Neon Drive has managed to pull that off. As nobody in the right state of mind could have even guessed that a racing game, could become a work of art, when combined with basic rhythm-based mechanics. In fact, from its early previews, one got an impression that it might just be the very first вЂuniqueвЂ™ title in years, as it was looking to combine two genres, which one would never expect to go well together. Right from the beginning, Neon Drive seemed to be destined to become the next big thing.
