ChromaGun is a first person puzzle game, developed by ‘Pixel Maniacs’. It is coming out the 23rd of August for both Xbox One and PS4 but already out on PC. This came might just be one of the most colourful games ever. You’ll see why.
How things work in ChromaGun is very simple but applying it in the game is where the difficult part comes in. The player is equipped with… the ChromaGun. We are sure you guessed that. The ChromaGun can colourise walls (change colour of the wall) and workerDroids. Well the WorkerDroids are the main problem in the game. Those spikey floaty things. They are attracted to walls of the same colour. They will literally go towards it; because of this you can use WorkerDroids to activate triggers, get rid of electrified floor tiles and even open doors for you. All of this takes place in chambers where you must find the exit doors.
ChromaTec’s test lab is where you will be testing out the military grade colour-technology… the ChromaGun. There is said to be eight chapters to this game and off course things get more complicated and difficult as you advance. Literally, that’s pretty much all that can be said about this game. It’s concept is very simple but challenging and fun. We do need more games like this. Games that anyone is truly capable of playing and doing good at while struggling with a bit of frustration.
We checked out some gameplay and it’s just what we thought it would be; however it does look like it’s more puzzle and thinking than fun. It’s not badly balanced though. Make the blue one go there then bring the other two through the newly opened door, then bring blue through with the others by having on the first two hold the door open etc.
Overall the game looks fun and off course colourful. The graphics are alright and simple. The sounds are good. The level designs are quite clever. The developers ‘Pixel Maniac’ did a good job with this game. This game might be worth checking out. ChromaGun is very colourful but not as colourful… as the ‘Earth Walk!’
