Double Dragon Neon (and its playable demo) is now in the Playstation Store and X-Box Live. I played the demo for a few minutes (I’m still working on commission stuff and don’t have much time right now) and dug it. Most of the reviews for it seem to be positive, though the main negative review so far is so badly written that it’s already being mocked. Remember the early slack-assed reviews of Moon Diver that called it a mindless platformer but complained about how easy it is to die because they played it like a mindless platformer? Yeah, there’s a bit of that going around with this one. Still, most people seem to be digging it.

Learn more at the official website for the game and give the demo a shot while remembering that dodging and countering is just as important as blocking and countering was in Super Double Dragon.
BTW: Jake Kaufman’s soundtrack, filled with classic D.D. remixes and stunning eighties-ness, is up on BandCamp.
Double Dragon Neon soundtrack
Imagine that there was a pilot for a live-action Double Dragon TV show in the 80’s that would’ve aired at 10 PM on NBC or CBS. That’s what the remix of the main theme sounds like and I’m beyond okay with that.
