Chrono Commander

Chrono Commander takes a fresh approach to real-time strategy (RTS) games by incorporating time travel as a core mechanic, allowing players to command armies across the timeline. While it retains many of the RTS genre’s elements such as base building, resource management, and tactical battles, its time travel mechanic adds a unique challenge. Chrono Commander blends traditional strategy elements with the ability to rewrite the course of battles.

One of the game’s strengths lies in its ability to balance both single-player and multiplayer experiences. The single-player campaign features a comic-based story that immerses you in a world where various factions collide. Each faction offers a distinct play-style with their own specialized technology, ranging from crude tech to futuristic units.

• Time-Travel: Lead your armies across multiple timelines, altering the past, present, and future to gain the upper hand. Experience alternate realities and the grandfather paradox.

• Story Campaign: Engage in a rich campaign where factions from various backgrounds clash. Each faction comes with its own unique strengths and technologies.

• Single & Multiplayer: Challenge the AI in solo matches or take the fight online with friends in cross-platform multiplayer matches. Play in co-op mode and face off in competitive ranked matches, complete with awards and ratings.

• Play Modes: Beyond standard skirmishes, participate in missions like survival, capture the flag, and battle royale.

• Structures & Troops: Battle across land, sea, and air with units, including tanks, drones, mechs and alien crafts. Specialized units like time-portals, cloaking devices, EMP and nukes add variety to the battlefield.

• Research: Unlock advanced technology by researching time-based abilities, and specialized troops and structures.

• Modding: Customize your experience with the in-game map editor, allowing for player-modded maps, campaigns, and even new units and factions. Mod every aspect of the game, from visuals to sound effects.

No DRM: There is no DRM in the game. You don't need to connected to the internet to play single player games or the campaign. You don't need to be logged in to play LAN games either. You don't need to login either for WAN games (locally hosted games over the internet), but you will have to work out your router settings and do the appropriate port-forwarding so your friends can connect from remote.
