‘Manage a sentai TV studio, hire actors, record episodes and use awesome special effects!’
I know a lot of you are superspentaimonetarily after Steam sales, but those still with dollars to give might want to spend somesentimewith theChroma SquadKickstarter. InChroma Squad, you’re tasked with managing a fresh sentai — thinkPower Rangers— TV series, in which you hire and customize actors, buy studio equipment, choreograph battles, record episodes, and more.
There’s some impressive minutia available; you can even send letters to your fans, chat on IRC, and create comic book adaptations of your show. Cross media! In fact, theChroma Squaddevelopment team has released a web comic relating to the game’s story. So meta.
Chroma Squadwill have a story mode with multiple endings, as well as competitive multiplayer. The team behind it, Behold Studios, has had some past success and shown an ability to deliver on a product. It’s responsible for the cuteKnights of Pen & Paper 1. Well that helps explain why the pixel art inChroma Squadis so damn good. I’m down for a humorous, fun, colorful romp through the world of sentai.
