According to Pixel Maniacs CEO Benjamin Lochmann, the new game, Dye Hard, takes everything players enjoyed about the original – its smart humor, challenging puzzles, and vibrant look – and amplifies it.

The development team is excited to see how quickly and creatively players can complete the game.

About

ChromaGun 2: Dye Hard is a puzzle-shooter played from a first-person perspective, and it’s all about colors! You use a special gun, the ChromaGun, to paint walls and robots. Robots stick to walls that match their color. The game combines challenging puzzles with a funny story about friendship, making amends, and exploring different universes – all while you avoid dangerous floors and angry robots, and figure out how colors mix!

Key Features

  • A One-of-a-Kind Tool – The ChromaGun: Wield the titular “ChromaGun,” a versatile paint-gun used to shoot primary colors onto surfaces and objects, mixing them to manipulate the environment
  • Magnetoid Chromatism – Master the key mechanic of “Magnetoid Chromatism”—a proprietary concept where Droids and other objects are magnetically attracted to walls of the same color.
  • Multiverse Puzzles – Travel through time and space across different dimensions and parallel universes, each introducing new physics and increasingly complex mechanics.
  • State of the Art Accessibility – Pixel Maniacs developed a unique accessibility game mode overlaying symbols on colored objects to help color blind players to enjoy the game too! With this well-thought feature, ChromaGun 2: Dye Hard won the “Horizon Award” for Technical Innovation at GG Bavaria 2025!
