About
An idle, minimalist sci-fi game with a deep, unfolding mystery. You awaken as the Chroma Engine, a machine built for a single purpose: to create. In a silent, starless void, you must generate fundamental colors, mix them into complex new forms, and reignite the memory of a lost cosmos.
The universe is empty. Your function is to fill it. By allocating your power and building a vibrant resource engine, you can push back against the perfect nothingness. Each restored star is a new light in the dark and a fragment of a forgotten story, bringing you closer to understanding what was lost.
Create & Combine: Generate primary colors and unlock complex mixers to build an intricate production chain.
Reignite the Stars: Use your creations to generate Light and restore a vast, explorable Star Chart, unlocking powerful, permanent bonuses with each constellation.
Automate Everything: Evolve your engine with sophisticated automation to manage production and upgrades, allowing you to focus on cosmic restoration.
Discover the Past: Uncover the secrets of the void through fragmented lore entries tied to your progress.
Thank you for joining the Project Chromata! The game currently includes the entire first major story arc (Stage 1 & 2), offering a complete and satisfying gameplay experience from start to finish. We are hard at work developing the next massive content update, Stage 3, which will expand the story and introduce entirely new systems. We welcome you to our community and look forward to hearing your feedback as we continue to build upon the universe!

Cool game, I like it so far. Got to the part where nodes start getting destroyed, seems pretty interesting. The only problem is the Void Hunt being very unbalanced. Upgraded the attraction field radius to level 10, now it's almost impossible to play on the higher levels. The chaos particles just keep getting sucked into it and I can barely progress. Hope you'll change it somehow or add a way to remove upgrades.
fount it to be quite straight forward after reading the codexs
Not a bad game but ashen realm is kinda boring...
