Turn any floor
into a game.
Chase the blue. Jump the red. Back to green.
One projector, one laptop, a room full of kids.
A projector points down.
The floor lights up. Kids do the rest.
Neon Grid is a web page. Open it on a laptop, send the picture to a projector aimed at the floor (or a wall), and the surface becomes a grid of glowing tiles that tells the kids what to do — like a play-along video they can run around inside. Add a webcam and the floor feels their feet.
Point and open
Aim the projector at the floor or a wall, open neongrid.club/go on the laptop, tap Floor or Wall. Press F for fullscreen. That is the whole install.
Four flashes and it knows the floor
With a webcam beside the projector, clear the floor and tap Calibrate: the board lights each corner in turn, the camera finds them, and it checks itself with a tile in the middle. Seconds, not minutes. No camera? Skip it — every game plays along without one.
Pick a game, pick players, GO
Levels 1→8 with a coach voice, music and a clock, then a victory parade — and it loops back to level 1 so it runs a whole party by itself. A phone becomes the remote with a three-letter code.
Twenty-three ways to run around.
Every game shares the same bones — eight levels that get faster, a clock, pause, a parade at the end — so kids learn the rhythm once. Party Mix shuffles a surface's games a few levels at a time and calls "Next game!" Click any picture to see it big.
Floor
PROJECTOR POINTING DOWN · 16 GAMES
Classic
Chase the blue, jump the sweeping red bars, and floor-is-lava from level 3
Floor Is Lava
Get on a rock before the front floods the floor; the rocks grind up and down
Lily Pad
Hop to your new pad in your colour before the old one blinks and sinks
Monster
Blast it from your base, dodge the fireballs, and the level-8 boss is the biggest yet
Fish Chase
A pond on a fine grid: chase the fish, grab the starfish when it settles
Zombie Grab
Walk the path while zombies claw across it — step round, jump, duck the bats
Dino Steps
One kid is the dinosaur: stomp the footprints as they fade in, corner to corner
Hot Potato
Pass it round the spots; when it blows, that colour does five jumps
Sweep
A red arm spins from the middle — it speeds up, reverses, and grows to four
Break Away
The floor crumbles until only a secret island is left; earthquakes from level 4
Hurdles
Run in place in your lane and jump the bars as they come through
Tightrope
Balance on your coloured line as it snakes forward and turns
Firefly Catch
Night falls; catch the fireflies while they glow
Color Corners
The coach calls a colour; run to it before it locks in
Team Battle
Blue half vs pink half, mirrored targets and hazards, "Switch sides!"
Party Mix + Freeze Dance
A new game every few levels; and dance until the music stops, then freeze in a pose
Wall
PROJECTOR POINTING AT A WALL · 7 GAMES · REACH CALIBRATED SO NOTHING SPAWNS TOO HIGH

Rhythm Lanes
Notes fall down your lane onto the hit line, on the beat of the music
Hole in the Wall
Make the body shape cut out of your wall before it locks in
Balloon Pop
Pop them before they float away — but not the red one
The whole floor sings happy birthday.
Type a name on the setup screen. It goes on the scoreboard, and winning ends in a birthday parade: everyone marches round the edge while the middle of the floor becomes an LED sign scrolling HAPPY BIRTHDAY ♥ NAME, then a pixel cake builds up and shoots fireworks — with the birthday song over the music.
- Runs itself: levels 1→8, parade, back to level 1 — for as long as the party lasts
- Coach voice calls the moves so no grown-up has to referee
- Nine bundled music tracks; volume for music, effects and voice on the phone
- Any phone in the room becomes the remote — game, players, speed, pause
Works with nothing. Gets better with a webcam.
Just the projector
The surface tells the kids what to do and they chase it, like a fitness video they can stand inside. Every game is designed so it plays perfectly with no sensing at all — that is how it runs today at parties.
The floor feels their feet
A webcam beside the projector and an on-device pose model (up to six people) turn each kid into a body on the grid: step on a tile and it counts; stand where the lava lands and you lose a heart. Nothing leaves the laptop — no cloud, no video stored.
Run it from your pocket
Tap Add phone controller for a three-letter code, join from any phone, and you have every setting: game, players, level length, speed, sound, rotate — plus start, pause and new game.
