After a few years of development, where I worked mostly at night after work and on weekends, I finally released my game Neon Runner today on Steam.
The timing worked out nicely because Neon Runner will also be part of the Games From Ireland. The event will run on Steam during St Patrick’s Day 2026, 13th March – 19th March is showcasing games made by Irish developers.
If you like fast arcade games, synthwave aesthetics and chasing leaderboard scores, you might enjoy it.

Happy to answer questions about the development process or releasing a game as a solo dev.
Cheers!

Fair play
Nice. What inspired you to make this? Is it your first published game?
Very SkyRoads, cool!
Looks cool, reminds me of the browser games I used to play in school on break times
Reminds me of Zone mode on WipEout! Congratulations on your efforts!
Fair play. Reminds me of a game I got hooked on called Race the Sun.
Finally I can control the colorful ball on the 1980s blank VHS tape cover art. Nice job OP.
Looks cool, the procedural generation certainly makes the whole project more interesting and impressive. Nice work
Fair play to ya 🙂
Wishlisted. This looks like it’d be perfect for VR
Way to go!!
Fair balls to you and wish you all the best in an exciting career.
