Neon Effect! [v0.1.2] [Loweki]
Neon Effect is an interactive Adult Visual Novel with dating sim and light gameplay,
aspects in a streamlined point-and-click environment.
In the distant future, technology towers above all.
Cybernetic body enhancements (CBE) are as common as tattoos and virtually essential to get by.
However, a new invention has been on the rise — androids.
Ranging from household maids to store clerks, androids have been slowly integrating into society.
Welcome to New Dynamo City, the metropolis of neon lights!
