- Update on 1.2.3.0 - 19 May 2026
Hello everyone! Wanted to come here and chat with you on what's coming next for Neon Blight. I'm currently hard at work on update 1.2.3.0 and it's advancing well! One of the latest additions I'm most excited about is weapon augments. In this next update, you'll FINALLY be able to use the weapon workshop. You'll need to collect metal scrap to augment your weapon. Each weapon has three augment tiers that modify stats. You'll find that each weapon upgrades in a different way; some will even have more specialized augments. For example, the third augment for the Eclipse-32 adds a silencer, Crystallized Death gets a strong and more focused shot and the mega mate 80 gets to a penetrating effect. There are more variations, but I'll keep them secret for you to discover. I'm very excited about this feature, it'll give players reason to keep certain weapons, and experiment with the available augme…

- Neon Blight's Future Roadmap - 23 November 2025
Hello merchants, I've got an update for you regarding the future of Neon Blight. 3 years ago when I released Neon Blight, many outside forces were interfering with the development of Neon Blight. Lot's of things went wrong, and not a lot went right. I took on and off hiatus from the game, at that point in time I was becoming physically ill from burnout, not taking care of myself and prioritizing the wrong things. Today I want to present you the future ahead for Neon Blight. Lot's of cool things planned and lot's already in production! I can't wait to show you more, but for now, gotta get back to it. If your interested in keeping up with the development in real time, I post on bluesky and starting making devlog over on youtube You can also join the discord where I share super secret sneakpeeks. See ya in the Outer Border.

- The Future of Neon Blight - 21 October 2025
Hey everyone It's been a while. I've been away from this game for a bit, mostly for financial and mental health reasons, but I'm here today to talk about what is happening with Neon Blight. As you may have noticed, the game is sitting at mostly negative currently, which is unfortunate, but not unwarranted. I am aware of the bugs and crashes present in the game, and this is the large reason for the negative reviews. I'd be lying if this hasn't affected me and my relationship with the game. I've received truly vile comments from unhappy players. I had to step back. My past strategy to tackle updating the game was to release larger updates, but this only lead to longer wait between releases and a higher expectation from myself. From now on I will be approaching releases differently. Instead of larger updates every so often, I will be releasing smaller updates, more frequently. I think with…

- Opening Hours UPDATE | Available April 11th - 5 April 2025
Update 1.2 is the biggest update yet will be coming out April 11th. Hundreds of hours have been poured into this update and it's all a labour of love. When I first started making this game, it was a small passion project made out of the bedroom of my parent's house. Now almost 3 years past its released and 7 years past it's development start, I'm releasing the update that I feel truly brings the game together. So is this it? Is this the last update? Maybe, maybe not. Game development is hard and time consuming and priorities have to change. This is also what I said last time I released an update and that's why I don't have a straight answer. What I do know is that Neon Blight will always have a place in my heart and I still have tons of cool ideas for what this game could become. Maybe with your help we can make it happen eventually! Till next time! Additions - Added achievements - New…

Currently I am still working on some loose ends with the new store systems, and doing rounds of playtest. The store The store gameplay has been revamped. Neon Blight had very bare-bones store gameplay. Most of your time was spent waiting around with no real goal. Now when you open your store you will have 3 minutes to sell your…
