The Neon Highway is a hidden area that can be accessed from the Highway. Comparable to the Moonside level in Earthbound, the Neon Highway is an alternative version of the inter-section area of the Highway.

Map of the Neon Highway (Note that the the Rainbow effect is required to use the teleporters).

Accessing the area

Accessing the Neon Highway can be somewhat difficult, as typically it would be quite rare to encounter it during normal gameplay. The easiest way to access the area is to leave the main inter-section area of the Highway on the upper road to the east, pass one section of the Highway road and then go back and forth between the two screens at least 20 times. When you return to the inter-section, you should arrive at the Neon Highway instead.

Features

This area has a similar layout to the regular version of the Highway inter-section, with neon versions of the shop, taxi, benches and the bathroom all accessible. The main difference is that the area is surrounded by neon silhouette versions of boy Urotsuki that block most of the area and cannot be killed with the Chainsaw effect to gain access. However, if you equip the Rainbow effect, some of the neon silhouettes will begin to flash. Interacting with these silhouettes will transport you to a different part of the map, allowing you to explore areas which initially appear inaccessible. Urotsuki also cannot cross the dotted road markings in some areas.

The neon shop contains a neon version of the shopkeeper, however all other elements of the shop have been replaced with neon outlines of flames. Occasionally, the doors will refuse to open when trying to leave the shop, usually only leaving you the option to walk out of one seemingly random door.

On the tiles to the right and left of the outside doors, Urotsuki can walk up the side of the shop and onto the roof. This can be used to reach a flashing figure on the roof or either the boy's or girl's bathroom. The flashing figure leads to a closed off area containing a neon vending machine with glitched appearance and a walking shadow figure to the left. The shadow figure will move toward Urotsuki like a chaser, but will be unable to cross the road markings. There is another flashing figure to teleport Urotsuki back.

The boy's bathroom is accessible while using the Boy effect. The cubicle in the boy's bathroom connects to the girl's, and vice versa. Upon exiting either bathroom Urotsuki will appear on the other side. Whilst inside, if you open any of the cubicle doors an infinite number of neon silhouettes will walk out in a similar fashion to the Giant Cloning Room event.

The bottom area is accessible by moving to the right from the entrance, looping around the other side of the map, where you can make one of the figures flash by using Rainbow, and interacting while flashing will teleport Urotsuki to the bottom area. It is advisable to use the Bat effect to be able to return to this spot, as flashing figures are one-way.

Along the bottom of the map is a neon version of the taxi. Unlike the regular taxi which transports you to Purple World, entering the taxi will take you to a sectioned off area, with a taxi upon what looks like a neon version of the pillars found in the Underwater Amusement Park. Using some effects here shows different objects doing fast animations. Using the Polygon effect shows a shadow of Urotsuki at the top along with a door, which connects with Downfall Garden B.

Going back west from the bottom area will loop to a different part of the bottom area. Urotsuki may encounter the shadow chaser here as well.

Directions

The Nexus → Purple World → Highway → Neon Highway

Trivia

This area most likely takes inspiration from Earthbound's Moonside.

+The neon shop contains a neon version of the shopkeeper, however all other elements of the shop have been replaced with neon outlines of flames. Occasionally, the doors will refuse to open when trying to leave the shop, usually only leaving you the option to walk out of one seemingly random door.
-Accessing the Neon Highway can be somewhat difficult, as typically it would be very rare to encounter it during normal gameplay. The easiest way to access the area is to leave the inter-section area of the Highway through either exit on the western side of the map. After passing one section of the Highway road, go back and forth between the two screens '''at least''' 18 times, then return to the inter-section by at which point you should gain access to the top section of the Neon Highway (make sure not to go back and forth between the inter-section area and the Highway road, as travelling from the inter-section to other areas of the Highway resets the variable required to gain access to the Neon Highway). Very rarely, Urotsuki will instead enter through the bottom section of the Neon Highway, however this will only happen when variable 0603 (this variable allows access to the Neon Highway if the variable's value is higher than 1335, which increases a random amount between 68 - 78 every time you go back and forth on the highway) is exactly 1335.
+On the tiles to the right and left of the outside doors, Urotsuki can walk up the side of the shop and onto the roof. This can be used to reach a flashing figure on the roof or either the boy's or girl's bathroom. The flashing figure leads to a closed off area containing a neon vending machine with glitched appearance and a walking shadow figure to the left. The shadow figure will move toward Urotsuki like a chaser, but will be unable to cross the road markings. There is another flashing figure to teleport Urotsuki back.
+The boy's bathroom is accessible while using the [[Yume 2kki:Effects#Boy|Boy]] effect. The cubicle in the boy's bathroom connects to the girl's, and vice versa. Upon exiting either bathroom Urotsuki will appear on the other side. Whilst inside, if you open any of the cubicle doors an infinite number of neon silhouettes will walk out in a similar fashion to the [[Yume 2kki:Events#Giant Cloning Room|Giant Cloning Room]] event.
+The bottom area is accessible by moving to the right from the entrance, looping around the other side of the map, where you can make one of the figures flash by using [[Yume 2kki:Effects#Rainbow|Rainbow]], and interacting while flashing will teleport Urotsuki to the bottom area. It is advisable to use the [[Yume 2kki:Effects#Bat|Bat]] effect to be able to return to this spot, as flashing figures are one-way.

+Along the bottom of the map is a neon version of the taxi. Unlike the regular taxi which transports you to [[Yume 2kki:Purple World|Purple World]], entering the taxi will take you to a sectioned off area, with a taxi upon what looks like a neon version of the pillars found in the [[Yume 2kki:Underwater Amusement Park|Underwater Amusement Park]]. Using some effects here shows different objects doing fast animations. Using the [[Yume 2kki:Effects#Polygon|Polygon effect]] shows a shadow of Urotsuki at the top along with a door, which connects with [[Yume 2kki:Downfall Garden B|Downfall Garden B]].
-This area has a similar layout to the regular version of the Highway inter-section, however the area is surrounded by neon silhouettes of Urotsuki that cannot be moved or killed with the [[Effects#Chainsaw|Chainsaw]], making it very difficult to navigate. In the top section, there is a neon version of the shop that can be entered, a bathroom section that is blocked off (although the area is accessible by walking on broken tileset and gaining access to the roof) and by walking across the looped road section that Urotsuki entered can gain access to an area with a large neon bench. The neon shop contains a neon version of the shopkeeper, however all other elements of the shop have been replaced with neon outlines of flames. Occasionally, the doors will refuse to open trying to leave the shop, usually only leaving you the option to walk out of the same door you walked in from. The bathroom area is mostly similar to the regular version, however upon opening any of the cubicle doors an infinite number of neon silhouettes will walk out in a similar fashion to the [[Events#Giant_Cloning_Room|Giant Cloning Room]] event. Along the bottom of the map is a neon version of the taxi. Unlike the regular taxi which transports you to [[Purple World]], entering the taxi will take you to a sectioned off area, with a taxi upon what looks like a neon version of the pillars found in the [[Underwater Amusement Park]] .
+Going back west from the bottom area will loop to a different part of the bottom area. Urotsuki may encounter the shadow chaser here as well.
