All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello, Chroma Engineers!

You purified the Realms, but the signal remains. Stage 5 is the grand Halfway point of Project Chromata. This is the invasion of The Home World.

What's New?

1. Planetary Siege Explore a massive new Hexgrid map representing a fortified capital city. Break through defensive rings, from Orbital Uplinks to Military Zones, and neutralize unique Strongholds.

2. Tactical Assault Your production is now ammunition. Choose your strategy carefully:

  • Overwhelm: Spend massive Dissonance for instant victory.

  • Subvert: A slow, low-cost corruption over time.

  • Infiltrate: Spend Sovereignty to bypass defenses entirely.

3. The Oversight System Every conquest presents a narrative choice: Purge, Protocol, or Defy. Your decisions affect your standing with factions, granting powerful buffs or debuffs, and ultimately determine which ending you unlock.

4. The End of the Cycle The first part of the story arc concludes here. Will you be a savior or a destroyer?

Hope you enjoy the update!
