Cast actors, purchase equipment and upgrades for your studio, craft weapons and giant Mechas out of cardboard and duct tape. Once the cameras are rolling, you will control your cast of five colored-jumpsuit-clad warriors in dramatic, turn-based battles.

Mini Q&A
Answers provided by Saulo Camarotti, Producer and Founder
Why do you make games?
I personally see games as a new form of Myth. In ancient and classic times, the Myth was used as a possibility to tell stories with a deeper meaning. Stories about heroes would inspire a civilization to be more responsible and make a better world. I think that games are not just entertaining, it can make a better world. We can provide some hours of laughter, but also transmit a good message. As a game developer, I understand that I should make games that promote things that I want to see in the world, like heroism, virtues, pro-activity and tons of other things.
Why should people play titles from Behold Studios?
We create games that are very similar to the way that we are. We laugh all the time, we make fun of the problems, we like challenges, we see things from other angles, and I think that our games are like that. It provides hours of laughter and joy, while combining good mechanics and intelligent problem solving. We like the classics RPG from the 80's and 90's, specially when using the pixel art style, but the player can expect more, considering that the gameplay is very contemporary and fresh. Expect mind blowing some times, like Knights of Pen & Paper and Chroma Squad special moments.
What element of game design do you hold above all others?
We have some pillars that we like to discuss when designing our games. It's hard to chose just one to hold above all others. But you can always expect a new angle of a standard situation. For example, when we started creating a game about Power Rangers and Tokusatsu, we realized that we could create a game where players can record episodes for a Power Rangers tv show! That would be much much more amazing, and came out to be Chroma Squad.

Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Myth-making is a very interesting way to analogize video games. I like it, I like it a lot.
Sounds like an interesting studio!
Game sounds great. Throw in some perma-death.
Alright, it's an interesting premise, I'll give you that.
Power Ranger inspired RPG sounds fun.
