Our take on Paint Chips
The focus on compact competitive formats and paint-based combat leaves less room for a narrative campaign or exploration-led progression. Its variety comes from playlists, weapons, and match rules rather than from a long-form solo structure.
What is Paint Chips?
Paint Chips is an online 2D top-down shooter built around covering opponents and arenas with paint.
Matches support 8–16 players across maps and game types, with playlists for free-for-all, teams, pairs, and larger team battles. Six weapon-focused rulesets include standard painting, fixed weapon combinations, and random loadouts. A cooperative mode sends players against successive monster and boss waves. Solo play, bot matches, private games, and friend groups are supported. Players can vote on the next map and rules, pursue daily or weekly challenges, and compete on a weekly leaderboard. Earned Chips can be spent on character items, with more than 300 customization choices available. The game includes four team configurations, ranging from individual combat to 8-versus-8 matches.
