Overflowing Palette 2.0

Performance Mode

Simplifies animations, but significantly improves level loading speed and overall performance.

Audio Improvements

    Added sound effects for main menu buttons

    Added background music (1 track) with a separate volume setting

3 New Mechanics

•     Locked Color
•     Portals
•     Timer

    This also includes a rework of the level editor to support these new mechanics.

New Levels

    15 levels added:

        5 featuring portals

        5 featuring timers

        5 "advanced" levels — each includes at least 2 mechanics

UI Updates

    Level selection screen has been redesigned

    Each category now shows total level count and how many have been completed

New Menu – Tutorials

Explains how the new mechanics work.

Sound Settings

Moved to a separate settings tab. You can now adjust:

•     Master volume
•     Sound effects volume
•     Background music volume

Miscellaneous

Optimizations / Performance

•     All images and textures converted to .webp format to reduce file size
•     Color-change animation reworked, which should slightly improve performance and level load speed even outside of performance mode

Quality of Life

•     Increased speed of menu show/hide animations
•     Faster fade-out when exiting a level
•     Sound settings take effect immediately—no need to save manually

Windows App*

It hasn't been thoroughly tested yet. It's basically at the "Well, it works on my machine" stage.

I’ll update the GitHub documentation later regarding customization. With the desktop version, you’ll be able to:

•     Upload your own backgrounds or levels
•     Change texts and animation effects (e.g., how blocks change)
•     Even rearrange most of the interface elements

Plans

Of course, I’ll fix any bugs or issues that pop up and try to add more levels during the week.

In the future, I plan to update Endless Mode to support the new mechanics as well.

Further optimization is still needed.
