What players say

Players are split on Chroma Blast. Some enjoy it as a free, fast shooter with a good soundtrack, but many criticize the unchangeable screen shake, tiny enemies on bright backgrounds, and keyboard controls that feel poorly adapted from consoles. The minimalist art strikes some as lazy, and the gameplay loop does not last long for everyone.
