Over 1000 textures received special treatment from the developer. Many textures have been changed and tweaked to a certain degree. The overall Medieval theme is easy to notice. Using that experience, he managed to create Chroma Hills, inspired by his vision of how Minecraft visuals should look.

Simon had prior experience working in the game industry. Some of this success is attributed to the experience of the developer known as SycloneSJS, also known as Simon. Unlike similar other projects that were abandoned, Chroma Hills is still getting updates and still sees large numbers of downloads daily. The Chroma Hills texture pack has been released in 2012. Combined with the RPG elements, the resource pack managed to become one of the most popular packs ever released and one of the longest-standing ones, receiving updates for many years. Using cartoonish textures and RPG elements, the resource pack delivers a medieval theme that stands out when compared to similar projects. The Chroma Hills resource pack is one such example of a successful reimagining of vanilla Minecraft. While these types of resource packs have their audience, many players enjoy texture packs that are designed to be cartoonish and use textures that are flashier. Many resource packs use real images as textures to add a certain degree of realism.
