Slow & Throw: Neon Knives
About Slow & Throw: Neon Knives
Slow & Throw: Neon Knives is a 2D arcade skill game built around a single satisfying mechanic: hold to slow time, draw a line across your enemies, then release to send every staged knife flying at once. Enemies arrive in waves, carry shields, and attack from the air. Obstacles stand between you and a clean volley, and bosses push the challenge further. Dark arenas, gold enemy silhouettes, and blue blades make each successful throw glow against the background.
How to Play Slow & Throw: Neon Knives — Defeat Every Enemy Wave
The goal is to defeat every enemy wave before they reach you. Time slows while you draw your line across targets, giving you a moment to plan the volley before it launches. When a shield or obstacle blocks a throw, a different angle or weapon may open a path through.
