Quick summary
Paint Chips is a fast-paced 2D top-down multiplayer shooter made for macOS. Teams compete to claim more floor space by splattering it with their color while using paint-based weapons to eliminate rivals. Matches support up to eight players and emphasize both territorial play and direct combat.
Core gameplay loop
- Players attempt to color the arena in their team’s hue as the primary match objective.
- Weapons and abilities generate paint on contact, turning combat into area-control tactics.
- Matches are built around team-versus-team PvP with map and game-type voting before each round.
- A weekly leaderboard highlights the most successful players, adding a competitive edge.
Game modes and matchmaking
- Dynamic matchmaking places teams into rotating PvP playlists for varied encounters.
- Private lobbies are available for organizing matches with friends and custom rules.
- A cooperative option, Chippingrounds, pits players against waves of monsters and bosses for PvE variety.
- Players can cast votes on the next map and the match format to influence the experience.
Progression and customization
- An in-game currency called Chips is earned through play and spent in the item shop.
- The store features well over a hundred cosmetic options and paid customization items.
- Limited-time and event-exclusive items rotate periodically to keep the catalog fresh.
- Cosmetic purchases are optional and focused on appearance rather than gameplay advantage.
Social and competitive features
- Up to eight players can join a single match, encouraging small-team tactics and coordination.
- Weekly leaderboards and match voting systems support a lively competitive scene.
- Private matches and friend lobbies make it easy to organize casual or ranked sessions.
Suggested alternative
