In what way does your game fit the theme?
While each color has its own unique strength to resist hazards, they become stronger together when combined into one as they share one another's abilities. Cleverly combine the players to make your way through challenging puzzles, making sure that everyone survives.

Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Everything is made from scratch, player movement was adapted from a Bardent tutorial.

Wow. The first game that has held my attention this long. Challenging but satisfying. That's a 10/10 from me!

Developer

Very fun and engaging concept. Challenging but fair. 

Definitely worth the play!

I liked the game but it was a bit too hard for me.

It's a really interesting take that I quite enjoy, I like a challenge and this game definitely brings that to the table, and the music fits the game perfectly although it is a bit loud in my opinion

Submitted

I think you forgot to add Alt + F4 to your controls, it's a lot more difficult then I originally imagined

I hate this game and I love it at the same time. The game is amazingly well designed, has an original idea acording to the jam theme that works perfectly, everything is very well pollished, and the art and sound are great too. But why it have to be SO FUCKING DIFFICULT???. I have to stop playing beacause I was about to suffering a stroke. I can't pay attention to those round bastards.

Jokes appart, it is an amazing job, my favourite so far, congratulations.

Developer

I'll blame the level designers for that one haha! Thanks so much for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Developer

us level designers are cruel like that. We feed off of your suffering

Awesome visual and game is good. But not my type. Too hard for stupid and lazy me. Video of play is there

Thanks for showing on the stream!

Nice game :D

That was really cool! Kind of Bit.trip runner/Super meat boy vibes even though it doesn't look the same at all. Your game could totally win! Well done :)

Rate mine if you have time, I'll be an enthusiastic second ^^

Those are very flattering comparisons, thanks for the encouragement! I'll definitely check yours out as soon as I can!

Not bad tho some levels you have to cheese to get the ball to land perfectly.. Or I'm just very bad at games ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Developer

I don't think you're bad :) some spots can be a little tricky for sure haha, thanks for giving it a play!

No problem m8

Wow dude, really fun game! Really like look of the game and the music was great! The puzzles were fun and well thought out, and the splat when you die is really satisfying, love that effect :D Great work! :)

If you have some time to spare I would really appreciate it if you tried my game :D

Developer

Thanks so much! Glad you liked the song, luckily I had enough time to make a little something right at the end. I'll have to check yours out for sure :)

i really like the concept very fun and polish 

Good Job :))))

Wow, superb game and level design! I love the idea of this puzzle game. Honestly I think you can turn it into a small mobile game without significant investment.

The chromatic aberration effect felt a bit distracting, but other than that I enjoyed it. Great work!

And thank you for playing my game!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, glad to hear that you enjoyed it! I definitely think it would be fun to work more on this idea

Submitted

hi there i cant play your game because im on mac and your game has really cool art and i like how you made the colours glow and your description about how they use unique strength is awesome well done!

Developer

Bummer! Hopefully I can get a version uploaded that you can try out once the jam is over

Submitted

could you play my game aswell

Nice game! Very cool graphics and puzzles. I like how you design level 3, in which players can suddenly learn a lot about the mechanics of the game, without any tutorials or textual explanation. And it fits the theme very well. Good job!

Developer(+2)

Thanks so much! That's great to hear that you enjoyed it! I'm sure Jacob (level designer) will be happy to hear that, thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

I must say I really like this game the art even tough simplistic looks amazing and feels really nice with all those effects. The moving and jumping feels smooth and even the dying animation looks extremely nice. Even more the levels are all really well done and make the game even better than it already is. Overall amazing entry and really well done.

Developer

Thanks so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!!

When you pause the game sometimes the buttons don't work, but in general the game is awesome, the art is really great, the puzzles are incredible and difficult too, and the way that merges with the theme of the jam is awesome, Good Job!!!! I like your game a lot!

Submitted(+1)

Great game for sure, love the fact that you took the theme so literally for they are stronger when they actually merg together. The puzzles actually suprised me, being way better than I expected. It's goodlooking too! Good job!

Submitted(+2)

Very creative idea and a very graphically pretty game, it is quite tough on level 2 i kept acidentally killing the white ball XD Good game though well done!
