Chromablitz mode: Where did it go?


In update 1.4½, I announced that I had removed Chromablitz mode. So some of you may be wondering, why?

Chromablitz is a mode where different gems do different things when making lines. Pretty good idea. So why was it cut?

If you look at the other modes in Gem Miner, which are Survival, Time Rush, and Obstacles, you will see they all have a simple idea, and an easily memorable title. Chromablitz on the other hand, does not. Not only is the mode itself complicated to get your head around, because of that I needed to think of a complicated title.

So naturally that ended up putting Chromablitz below the other modes, for me. The gimmick also gets in the way when you are playing, not so easy to get used to, as well as just being a copy of survival mode, just being more annoying. I could have worked out how to do these things if I had wanted to, but I decided it was just better to cut the mode all together. 

The one loss I have from this is the music. The music for this mode was awesome, and happy, but unfortunately it had to go with the mode.

So Chromablitz mode is gone, and probably will not come back. It is still perfectly coded to work if I, or any modders, ever do want to bring it back, though.

That is all I have for this post, cya when update 1.5 is released
