Paint yourself to match the room, freeze, and hope the seeker walks past. Then swap sides and go splash them.
Practice in any room you have unlocked. Ranked matches pick a room for you.
Earn paint drops in every match. Some looks unlock with your ladder tier.
Hiding: walk somewhere and tap PAINT. The paint copies the room behind you as your camera sees it, so from that side you all but vanish. Stand close to a wall or pick FLAT so it still matches from other angles. Paint copies the light too: lamps that change, a moving beam or a torch can give you away. Your shadow and your eyes can too.
Seeking: walk (left side) and look around (drag on the right side). Tap anything that looks out of place to throw a paint balloon. A miss costs 2 seconds. Stripes that do not line up, a blob that shifts as you walk past, a shadow with nothing above it: that is a hider.
Ladder: four rounds, you swap sides every round. Survive or find to earn Shade Points and climb from Crayon to Masterpiece. All 7 other players are bots.
Keys: WASD walk, drag the mouse to look, click to throw, Space paint, 1-3 poses, F/G powers, Enter ready.
