Overview

In the rust-belt city of Ashenburgh, silence is a sound you can't escape. For high school senior Evan Carter, life is a suffocating shade of gray. Trapped between the crushing weight of academic expectations and the ""low tides"" of his own depression, he is drowning in a world that demands he be still. But Evan doesn't want to be still. He wants to be loud. When he walks out of his final calculus exam and into the neon-soaked underworld of Prism, an illegal rave hidden in the city's industrial decay, Evan finds the frequency he's been missing. Here, amidst the strobes and the relentless 4/4 beat, he isn't a failure-he is alive. Guided by his charismatic best friend Kai and the shadowy DJ known as JD, Evan discovers that he can hack his own brain chemistry to sustain the high. But as he chases the ""full spectrum"" of feeling, the line between liberation and destruction blurs. The gray isn't just waiting for him to come down; it's waiting to swallow him whole. Set against the gritty backdrop of the late-90s underground rave scene, Neon Descents is a visceral, pulse-pounding exploration of mental health, addiction, and the dangerous lengths we go to just to feel something real.
