Chromavaders

An 80's-style combination of a puzzle game and a shooter.

How to Play

• Press O to insert a coin
• Press P to pause
• Use WASD to move
• Hold Z to advance enemies manually
• Press Space to play (and to fire)
• Match same-colored blocks in lines of 3 or more horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
• Grab blocks by moving downwards into them, or by catching them. Release them with the fire button.
• You can hold up to 3 blocks; trying to catch a 4th will kill you.
• The block grid fills a little bit whenever you die.
• Push blocks sideways by moving into them.

Roadmap

Chromavaders is far from done. But it is in a good enough state for people to play it and give useful feedback. These items are on the burner, in no particular order:

• An attract mode that properly features gameplay and the tutorial
• Online high scores
• More game modes, for both one player and two
• Improve the AI
• Secure licenses for game console dev kits
