DESCRIPTION

chromium is a fast paced top down arcade style action shooter game. You progress through the game by destroying everything that you see on screen. There are a variety of 'power-ups' to assist you on the way. There is a big boss to destroy at the end of each level and there are various ships to destroy before you reach each boss.

TIPS

Do not let ANY enemy ships get past your fighters!
Use your fighters as weapons!
Strategic suicide is a powerful tactic!
Self-destruct to preserve your ammunition!
