This is a nice spin on the classic shoot-em up game. The graphics and music are very retro, but are done so as not to look dated. In fact, I have to say the graphics, while not cutting edge, are some of the best I've seen for this genre.
This is a game with some replay value with the various difficulties and with 50 levels. So far I have found I can play for an hour or two, or simply get in a quick level or two and be entertained.
Overall, another terrific offering from Freeverse!
It may seem a simple, harmless retro-shooter but you will soon discover that Neon Tango is a real hardcore shot'em up ... I've found the control scheme a bit awkward but, other than that, this is a very fun game. Well done, Freeverse.

Get tricky by bouncing your shots off of walls and enemies as you charge up your cannon to deliver massive energy blasts. Dodge the forces of entropy by stopping time or activating your hyper thrusters. Each arcade-packed wave offers a brand new way to play, thanks to unique enemies and clever levels. State of the art OpenGL graphics and a killer soundtrack from Digital Droo, dazzle the senses, while the built-in online scoring lets you mock your friends as you beat their hi-scores like a Bulgarian circus monkey in Campaign, Survival and Fast Score modes.
If Chuck Norris had his action removed and hot-glued onto Jack Bauer, and then Mr. Bauer was blended into a protein shake, it would be called "The Neon Tango" and… it would be Delicious!!!
