About Neon Tower Defense
Neon Tower Defense puts three geometric tower types around a winding route. Spend your starting credits on Bolt, Pulse or Spike towers, then earn more by stopping incoming shapes. Select an existing tower to inspect its range and upgrade or sell it. The first twelve waves introduce different enemies and bosses; surviving the twelfth opens an endless score challenge rather than ending the run.
John Dilig built the game with help from Claude Code. Its glowing shapes and electronic sounds accompany a familiar tower-defense loop: build, earn credits, upgrade, and hold the route. AI helped create the game; you do not need an AI account to play. This edition is hosted here under the creator's MIT license.

Where AI comes in
The author's repository says Claude Code writes the game code. The game page says its art and audio are synthesized in code.
Read the sourceBefore you play
Start with a tower near a bend so it can cover more of the route. Keep some credits for upgrades, and use P to pause while you plan. Best-wave and sound preferences can be saved in this browser. Use a desktop mouse and keyboard; touch play has not been verified.
