About the Game

** LOCAL MULTIPLAYER ONLY **
** REQUIRES 2 CONTROLLERS **

CHRONO is a competitive platform fighter where each player has the ability to strategically slow down time. It's extremely easy to pick up and friends can hop in and play a couple quick sessions without committing too much time. At its best, CHRONO showcases the tension between fast paced kinetic gameplay and anxiety inducing bullet time.

COOL STUFF:
-five different colored maps
-quick turnaround game time
-low skill floor, high skill ceiling
