Who Needs Colors?
The problem with a color-based game is, only people who can actually see colors, can play it! Who knew? That means, we're effectively cutting out 8% of the world population. That's almost 600 Million people who can't play ChromaGun! It's a crime! A crime, I tell you! (Also, dogs are color blind.)
That's why we have some great news for all you deuteranopes, protanopes, tritanopes and doges: There's no need for seeing colors while playing ChromaGun anymore! We implemented a new accessibility feature called 'ChromalessGun'! (We're not actually calling it that, I just thought it might be funny). Switching on the new colorblind mode in the settings menu, will make icons appear in the UI, on the gun, droids, walls, ... everything that can be colorized, really.
Based on the concept of ColorADD, the colorblind-icons can be combined, just like colors. That makes it easy to identify color-combinations for the chromatically impaired.
And this is what it looks like in the game:
We really hope you enjoy ChromalessGun! If you have anything to say, leave a comment! Let us know what we did wrong, what we did right and what we didn't do at all! ːblueworkerːːredworkerːːyellowworkerːːsilverworkerːːgoldworkerː Pixel Maniacs out!

Dear Chromalovers, as we all know, the core principle of ChromaGun is based on colors. Hence, the name. (The chroma-part, that is. Not the gun-part. Whatever.)

"Totally, totally loving this game!" – TangoTek, YouTube
"Absolutely phenomenal" – BUBisAwesome, Twitch
"A great mixture of careful puzzle solving and hectic danger-avoiding" – Jillian Werner, Gamezebo
============
Welcome to ChromaTec’s test lab! You’re here to test our newest, state-of-the-art military-grade color-technology: The ChromaGun (patent pending)! Use it to try and solve our meticulously designed test chambers. The basic principle is as easy as applying it is complex: Exit the chambers via the exit doors. But be weary of the WorkerDroids in charge of maintaining the chambers. They’re not exactly what you and I would call “human friendly”.
Use the ChromaGun to colorize walls and WorkerDroids to progress in the chambers. WorkerDroids are attracted to walls of the same color. Using that mechanic, try to reach the exit door of each chamber. Some doors are more complicated to use than others: They can only be opened using door triggers and only stay open as long as the triggers are occupied.
If all of this sounds like your brain can handle it, congratulations! You’re the perfect candidate for our test chambers!
That being said, welcome and good luck!
