Chromanoids is an arcade-style space shooter that puts you in charge of a space fleet, tasked with saving Earth from the unforgiving enemy Chromanoid ships. Mix and match colors to destroy relentless waves of Chromanoid invaders before they reach your space station -- the last of Earth's defenses.

Choose from 5 exciting game modes:

*** Story Mode*** You're the last line of defense against the Chromanoids; your success affects the outcome.

Armada Mode Be challenged with more and faster attackers.

Ultradrive Mode The attacking ships speed up with each new wave, and your accuracy will affect the speed of your color missiles.

Depleted Mode Blast power is diminished as you hit the enemies, but gain bonus points for targeting the ships with smaller and smaller shots.

Red-Shift Mode Blast away! Just shoot the enemies down, without having to change colors.

Game Center support with leaderboards for each game mode and local high scores enabling you to become Earth's hero and show off your high scores.

Use special power ups such as the Nuke and Instakill Blitz Bombs to fend off and survive wave after wave of attacks and pick them up during play to help you on your mission.

"Ensign Cyan reporting for duty Sir! Sensors detect shielded Chromanoids coming our way!"
