Description

Kromaia is a 3D, six degrees of freedom, fully physics-based, experimental action game, placed in a strange and hostile universe, governed by rules that have to be discovered by the player. This immersive experience, in which traditional interface elements, as well as text, do not exist anymore, goes beyond the space shooter genre boundaries and sets a new standard: Spatial and physical awareness, insight, tactic and reflexes in exchange for survival.

An underlying solid, optimised engine makes Kromaia what it is: A reality, since everything seen on screen is actually there; an experience entirely driven by true physical forces and supported by a powerful time control system. In a continuous, constantly evolving environment like this, there could not be two identical runs.

Interactivity makes the difference for Kromaia. Choose between a complex story mode, a boss battle mode and a challenging versus mode for two players.

This is a unique journey through deep space, where asteroids are not frozen assets, but real Asteroids; projectiles are not graphical elements, but solid Projectiles; explosions are not particle effects, but Explosions affecting the environment with shockwaves. No more fake movement for a single entity: just physical forces.

If seen, then it happened.
