✦ AI summary

Chroma receives wildly mixed reactions from players, with opinions ranging from harsh criticism of its platformer mechanics and dated 2D graphics to enthusiastic praise for its visual artistry and color-based gameplay design. While some dismiss it as poorly made with clunky controls, others highlight the creative puzzle-solving and aesthetically pleasing presentation as genuinely satisfying experiences. Most players seem to view this as an early or experimental build worth trying for free, though controller compatibility issues and fundamental gameplay concerns may frustrate some players.

"Chroma" is a rather poorly made 2D retro platformer where you control a Robocop robot or something and jump through some badly designed platformer levels with a super clunky bit of gameplay and handling. It's worth taking a moment to laugh at how bad the animations are. On the topic of visuals, the weak looking 2D retro assets seem like they'd be more at home in a browser game or a mobile app. 3D graphics accelerators hit the mainstream of PC gaming in the mid 1990's with cards like the ATI Rage and Voodoo3D, there's no excuse for such poor 2D graphics in 2024. That alone is enough to disqualify this for recommendation. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", …

Игра 'Chroma' — это настоящий взрыв красок и эмоций, который затягивает с первых минут. Визуальная составляющая просто поражает: каждый уровень — это новое произведение искусства, наполненное яркими оттенками и завораживающими пейзажами. Геймплей, построенный на манипуляции цветом, интуитивно понятен, но при этом предлагает достаточно глубины, чтобы бросить вызов даже опытным игрокам. Решение головоломок, требующих не только логики, но и креативного подхода к комбинированию цветов, приносит истинное удовлетворение. Музыкальное сопровождение идеально дополняет атмосферу, создавая медитативное и одновременно захватывающее настроение. 'Chroma' — это не просто игра, это арт-объект, который дарит незабываемые впечатления и побуждает взглянуть на мир под новым, ярким углом. Настоятельно рекомендую всем, кто ценит красоту, оригинальность и интеллектуальные вызовы.

Beautifully done. Pain in my ***, yet great fun. Would love to see the full game. Couldn't get controller to work. (PS4 DS4 to Computer (Asus BT dongle.)) ~~I may just be a twit.~~

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
