Chroma Shift

Chroma Shift is a 3D first-person puzzle precision platformer with a steep level of difficulty. With an aesthetic inspired by Tron, and a gameplay inspired by Portal and Ghostrunner, the game is set on a computer simulation, where you'll use Chromatic Powers to navigate the environment and destroy the code anomalies.

The demo was originally made in 13 days for the Acerola Game Jam 0, with the theme "Aberration". It has been further updated since then with multiple quality-of-life improvements.

The game is also playable with an Xbox controller, by the way (aside from mouse and keyboard, obviously).

I hope you enjoy the game! Feel free to direct me any feedback!

Patch notes for version 1.1.0:

  - Fixed an issue where some walls would not push back the player as intended when using the Magenta Powers;

  - Tuned the difficulty of the platform jumping in the level where you acquire the Magenta Shift, making it more forgiving;

  - Player movement: the player will now accelerate and decelerate more aggressively;

  - The final level was partially redesigned, as the previous version had an exploit that allowed the player to completely skip the puzzle;

  - Added sound effects to menu navigation;

  - Added a dedicated Respawn/ Retry button (R on keyboard and View Button on the Xbox controller) to improve the flow of gameplay;

  - Added a subtle sound effect to all anomalies;

  - Fixed a small bug where the player UI would unintentionally render in the game's main menu;

Patch notes for version 1.1.1:

  - Increased ease-of-use of the Magenta Chromatic Ability;

  - Updated dialog lines in a way that, once they're completed, they will not repeat indefinitely after player dies in a level;

  - Updated credits;
