Description
In Chroma Squad you manage an indie Japanese superhero TV studio, casting actors, purchasing equipment, crafting weapons and giant Mechas out of cardboard and glue to create your own TV show. Once the cameras are rolling, you take control of your cast of five colored-jumpsuit-clad warriors in dramatic, turn-based battles.
History
Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /home/beholdstudios/www/press/sheet.php on line 400
The idea of a game about a Super Sentai studio came naturally to the team. Most of the team was a fan of those series when young, since they were very famous in Brazil during the 80's and 90's. Behold Studios went to Kickstarter in 2013 to pitch this crazy idea to the world. Turns out the world likes it - Chroma Squad was 180% funded and was released for PC, Xbox, PS4 and mobile!
