You are a test subject in ChromaTec’s laboratory, tasked with escaping a series of chambers using the ChromaGun, a device that fires colored paint.
Paint walls and WorkerDroids to attract droids toward walls of the same color. Mix paint colors to create new hues, position droids on door triggers, and navigate hazards; some chambers also impose time limits.
Work through 57 chambers across eight chapters, with new mechanics introduced as you progress. The game also supports community-made levels through Steam Workshop.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its color-gun mechanic and the satisfaction of solving its chambers, with some also liking the changing challenges and Portal-like atmosphere. Others find the puzzles repetitive or too simple, and many object to having to restart a chamber after mistakes, especially in timed sections.

============
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!
