Chroma Squad
Chroma Squad is a tactical RPG about five stunt actors who decide to quit their jobs and start their own Power Rangers-inspired TV show! Cast actors, purchase equipment and upgrades for your studio, craft weapons and giant Mechas out of cardboard and duct tape.
What it feels like
Comedy and meme-forward design invite the player to enjoy absurd cardboard-and-duct-tape mecha and stunt-actor hijinks. A cheerful, unburdened mood throughout—the game never asks to be taken seriously, celebrating B-movie charm and genre pastiche.
What it's about
Sharp comedic commentary on Power Rangers and low-budget TV production through the lens of stunt actors making their show. Five heroes band together to fight enemies and save the day through their TV episodes, echoing classic quest archetypes despite the comedic framing.
How it plays
Turn-based grid tactics combat is definitional—positioning, range, and tactical positioning of the five-person squad decide battles. Purchasing equipment and upgrading your TV studio between episodes is a persistent progression system that unlocks capabilities. Assembling and directing a squad of five distinct colored-jumpsuit characters with different roles is a core system.
How it looks and sounds
Combat unfolds in an isometric view of the tactical grid, a signature aesthetic choice. Isometric pixel graphics define the visual presentation (noted in user tags).
How it's structured
Designed exclusively as a solo experience with no multiplayer component. A bounded story arc following five stunt actors starting their TV show from inception through completion, with a clear narrative spine. Every mission and narrative beat is deliberately authored rather than procedurally generated.
