Chromatic Isle

Chromatic Isle is a short love letter to some of my favorite first person puzzlers such as Myst, Portal, and Superliminal, with a specific focus on the intersection between Music and Gameplay. 

The game focuses on a few sound toys which I've turned into puzzles. Playtime on average is about 35 minutes. I recommend most players begin in the Spring (pink) area if you don't play many first-person puzzlers, but you can play through them in any order that you'd like. 

I recommend that you adjust the volume of the game on your PC so that the music in the hub area is slightly louder than you would usually like it. Not deafening, but louder than normal. This is important, as there are some mixed sound elements which may be more difficult to identify if the game is quieter.

As a solo developer I highly value any feedback you can give. If you have any critiques, affirmations, or general thoughts about the game, I highly appreciate feedback in all forms.

Thank you for reading - I hope you enjoy!
