About Neon Vice
Neon Vice is an adult visual novel made by SodiumAndInk in Ren'Py. It is set in Vesper City, a dark, money-driven place where loyalty always has a price. You play Adrian, a young relocation coordinator forced to work for the megacorp Acheron Holdings to cover his father's medical debts. As he moves between colleagues, tenants, romantic interests, and controlling superiors, choices change his influence and risk. The game uses animated 3D CG and AI CG visuals, with themes of romance, cheating, and a male protagonist's rise through a dangerous corporate world.
The current build is v0.2 Beta, released on November 9, 2025 for Windows, Linux, and Mac. It is English and uncensored. Development is ongoing, since Episode 2 is marked Alpha and the story is complete from start to finish. The update includes more than 800 renders across the project and branching choices that set up later episodes. The earlier v0.1 release was the initial version.
