“You never really know where the next indie game might be drawing inspiration from for its retro-inspired title. There are tried and true classics that can be referenced in any genre and when it comes to run-and-gun arcade shooters, the options are numerous. This includes the likes of Contra, Metal Slug, and even a classic favorite of mine, Sunset Riders. What few would have been looking for however happens to be a game that developers Zenovia really pulled out of nowhere for inspiration for its neon-soaked cyberpunk themed pixel game, and that is Wild Guns of all things. Featuring numerous inspirations from this unique pull from the early ‘90s and putting their own spin on things, how has Neon Inferno ended up?”
