This game is fantastic! All of the classic 2d shooty action, with some satisfying gunplay, some cool world and character building, and actual voice acting! Highly recommend!!

The Unichrome prototype was originally created in just 3 days as part of WGJ 28 with the theme "Rainbow Unicorn". The original prototype had only 4 levels, each of a different color: purple, brown, blue and white. There was only one boss fight originally at the very end. Due to its popularity, it was determined to take this on as a full-scale project. The current team consists of only one person Super8bitRafa (lone developer). The game is currently still being updated weekly.

Criminally overlooked platformer / shooter.
I'm only a few hours in and I already love it, the off beat dark humor mixed with the bright visuals has me hooked!

Very cool
It's like retro NES' "SEA CONTRA"! But instead of playing a sweaty Rambo-wannabe you get to control a quirky rainbow unicorn carrying guns bigger than herself!
Love the expressive art style, especially during cutscenes!
